An indecisive honeyed L'Interdit

Have you tried L'Interdit (2018) Eau de Parfum and thought to yourself "ah, if only this thing was more fruity"? Well, you're in luck. This is L'Interdit with a hefty dose of honeyed pear on top.

Pear, tuberose and honey at the forefront. Jasmine – stuck in the background together with gooey resins. A miniscule amount of ginger – I can feel it, but it does nothing to offset the overall sweetness. I wish there was more of it.

It's not bad, but I personally prefer the original. L'Interdit (2018) Eau de Parfum was all about the flowers. Here – you still have that prominent white florality, but now there's also pear persistently trying to push through it and take centerstage. Feels... more like I'm watching a fight rather than listening to a well composed song. Can these notes decide between themselves who's going to be the star of the show and then call me back, please?

Large initial cloud – fills the room, starts fizzling out around 4 meters away from the wearer in an enclosed space. The outer cloud is honeyed and fruity. The inner cloud is... loud. Becomes rather sharp and aggressively floral an arm's length away, give or take.

Sillage slowly fizzles out over the first ~2 hours of wear. Settles on skin. Overall scent mellows out, but "Floral vs Fruity" fight from earlier never reaches a satisfying conclusion. The notes just melt into each other and become one quiet unintelligible mess. Resinous backdrop becomes more apparent – hazy, creamy, with a very clean and refined patchouli note that feels like a signature of L'Interdit to me.

Takes another ~3 hours to reach drydown. Florals and pear fizzle away. A twinge of honey lingers over patchouli and vetiver.

Eh..? At the end of the day, it's still L'Interdit. Even if it's not as great as whichever one I prefer – it's still relatively well made. I'm not impressed, but I know several different women who would be happy to wear it. I'll just give my tester away to one of them.

Great floral-sweet scent with the L'Interdit DNA

Earlier there was a brief statement, now the detailed review of this flanker from the L'Interdit (2018) Eau de Parfum line. A line that is among my absolute favorites among women's designers. I love the slightly mysterious floral heart note that is the main character in every scent of this line. Mainly the extremely feminine tuberose note that runs through the entire line. My favorites are the two Rouge flankers, but so far I find all releases to be of high quality and I can recommend them all without hesitation. Especially for women who like to be very feminine and also enjoy going in this "flirty" direction: Here you get a range with elegance, sex appeal, and that slightly mysterious note that really shines in the dark or in the evening/night. As with most designer bestseller lines, the range is milked. Sometimes unnecessarily, but I like this perfume variant. If you have many from the L'Interdit line, you don't necessarily need this one, but it is a great addition that also has its own vibes.

This scent is available in 35, 50, and 80ml. The RRP is, as with all women's designers, outrageously expensive, but there are already offers for this new release. Better ones will certainly come in the next 1-2 years, but for those who want it now, there are already acceptable offers.
The bottle is sweetly designed and has great glass. The look is uniform and the presentation is typical for the designer sector. The packaging is just a simple cardboard box.
In terms of quality, you also get a great scent with this perfume variant in my opinion. I don't agree with these mediocre ratings at all, as this scent can quickly captivate you. The changes compared to others in this line are not that significant, but there are a few special features here, of course. Cool is this wonderful fruity pear note in the top note, which is very present. Immediately fruity-floral vibes come up, paired with this great sweetness that runs through the entire line. At the start, a slight ginger spice comes through, which has a fresher vibe. Patchouli is also a note here that represents this slightly dark and mysterious note from the beginning. The main part is, of course, the floral heart around the trio of jasmine, orange blossom, and of course tuberose. The latter is, of course, the most dominant. A slightly creamy-sweet bitter almond also provides great vibes that really match well with the pear and the floral notes. Orange blossom gives a clean vibe, while tuberose and jasmine contribute to the playful feminine character with a lot of sex appeal. In the base, myrrh, benzoin, and opoponax appear. It reads very resinous-balsamic, but is rather warm and sweet. Additionally, a lot of patchouli, which lets this scent fade out beautifully. Overall, a great modern release that fits perfectly into the current time and, in my opinion, can also connect to the previous flankers. Here you also get a great evening/night scent that already catches me.
Performance is not as top as some others in the L'Interdit line, but still absolutely satisfactory. Longevity is between 9-11 hours, sillage is very good at first, becoming a bit more reserved after 4-5 hours. With the dosage, you can certainly find your favorite and possibly achieve a bit more.

Overall, a great flanker that I really like. I would definitely gift it, and I find it relatively easy to like due to the floral-fruity notes. Only the tuberose might overwhelm some. If you like this line: Test it :-)

Expensive Fabric Softener

By chance, I received a sample of this fragrance and was also gifted another sample. Without beating around the bush: I tried everything to like this entire line. Especially as a tuberose lover. But something bothered me about the original and its flankers. This perfume version is actually the best creation... In the opening, you immediately perceive the Nashi pear, and this moisture surprisingly lasts quite a long time. It also pairs very well with the spicy ginger. Later, this fragrance glides into the floral realm, and the mimosa shines, intertwined with jasmine and tuberose. Eventually, it becomes difficult to distinguish the flowers. Everything somehow sticks together. I don't perceive any almond at all. After a few hours, something balsamic and earthy emerges. Without really venturing into masculine territory. Longevity is up to 7 hours, on clothing 12. Sillage and projection are okay. I was definitely noticed. A patient told me it was a great fabric softener... For €80/50ml, I would like to smell a bit more distinct, not like fabric softener.
Unfortunately, I am still not convinced. Underwhelming.

The ugly stepsister

Have you ever woken up in a sweat at 3 a.m. and wondered which of your numerous perfumes you would save from the raging flames of a fire? Me neither. Well, the part about the perfumes... and yet I unexpectedly found an answer: I love my L'Interdits! I am quite sure of that. Maybe I should collect the bottles in a little pouch. I still have that pink goodie bag from Valentino - or would that be blasphemy?!

The bottle comes in the familiar, rounded, slightly bulging shape and clear glass. At first glance, it looked to me like "L'Interdit Tubéreuse Noire | Givenchy," which confused me a lot. I expected a bit more creativity in the design.

Upon spraying, the scent seems very loud to me. Not in a way that it tickles the nose, but rather in a room-filling manner. It initially smells like the original but more intense, somehow stronger. In the drydown, a bit of green, almost herbal scent overlays the L'Interdit DNA. Then it becomes a little quieter. On my skin, it lasts about 4 to 5 hours.

I must admit that the opening impressed me a lot. However, the drydown is a bit too harsh for me. I would even go so far as to call L'Interdit Parfum unisex (aside from the fact that anyone can wear whatever they want, of course).

I believe that each flanker, despite the L'Interdit typical "Bubblegum" tuberose, has its own personality. Those who have already found their favorite can consider themselves lucky and, in my opinion, can skip one or two flankers.

For anyone who has been wishing for a less sweet, almost "masculine" L'Interdit or generally prefers something a bit more robust, I recommend testing this scent. Personally, I have found my favorite (L'Interdit Eau de Parfum Rouge Ultime) and am curious about what comes next!
