I used to be an expensive, designer brand snob. I would look down upon all things Avon, thinking they were of lesser quality. Over the last few years I've been proven wrong, and Herve Leger Femme is no exception.
The moment I spritzed on Herve Leger Femme I got a strong hint of orange blossom soap. The vanilla was very subtle, with this fragrance resembling something quite flowery and clean.
There's a whisper of sweetness in this composition, however for the most part, Herve Leger Femme is soap and nothing more. In the heart, this fragrance took on a buttery white floral feel, mostly brought about by the magnolia and benzoin counteracting with one another.
It' not necessarily an oriental vanilla, perhaps more of a floral, but I do get a lot of vanilla in the drydown which is pleasing to say the least. It's not a unique scent, but it is generally pretty and wearable. The buttery and creamy texture that this fragrance exudes makes it so much more appealing.
I find it a good all-season fragrance, very inoffensive and versatile. The lasting power on my skin was relatively impressive. I must say that I quite like Herve Leger Femme and I wouldn't have any objections to receiving this as a gift.
