Not What I Expected

It's very strange that they named this Jasmin Lilas as it is neither. It is a Lily of the Valley scent. It has both notes in the name showing up early in the wear, but they quickly depart, and this turns into a Lily of the Valley soliflore on the dry down. Despite my initial disappointment I still like this as it is a beautiful perfume. I just wasn't looking for another LOTV scent.
I must say that the LOTV is the most natural I've ever smelled. There is no LOTV scent that I have smelled to date that captures that exact scent, but this does. Soft, creamy, and sweet and not excessively green. Smells exactly the same as the bouquets I bring into my house when they are in bloom. It is really pretty. I shouldn't be surprised by how good this smells considering it is a Pierre Bourdon creation. That is what tempted me to buy this in the first place. I just should have done my homework before I did and not been swayed by the name alone.
Oh well, it looks like I now have another LOTV scent to wear. Thank goodness I really like this a lot.
