What a beauty!

I own the previous year´s limited edition in a yellow bottle and i managed to smell and wear this one as well. This version again has nothing to do with my beloved great classic, which "L´air du temps" is, but i, again, do no mind, since it smells really good. It reminds me somehow of a linden tree, when it is in a full bloom. Petitgrain gives it a bit of a bitterness, mimosa gives it softness and honey gives it sweetness. I really-really enjoy this scent since i enjoy almost anything to do with Linden blossom, so i guess it is a nice scent for early spring.
Needless to say that it is one of the most amazing bottles ever! Such a unique beauty! Huge like from me

Musky, honeyed orange blossom with a few leaves and stems

This opens with a lot of petitgrain and a soapy, fresh orange blossom that could also be neroli. I know they're from the same flower and just extracted differently, but usually neroli smells fresher to me while orange blossom is sweeter and richer, and I get the typical neroli freshness here.
But there is already a sweet, creamy, vanillic base looming in the background. It's also quite musky, I don't get how there is no musk in the notes. This actually reminds me of a greener, more cologne-like version of Prada Candy Kiss, which is also very musky to me.
The blend of mimosa and honey adds a bit of a lilac-like vibe to the heart phase, which I enjoy.
Then in the drydown the honey and also the tonka really come out to play and bring a beautiful warmth to the scent. Quite sweet, but in a sophisticated, traditional way, not too sugary.
The longer I have this on me, the more I like it. It's one of those perfumes that take their time to unfold on your skin.

The bottle is stunning, but it won't move into my collection. I have enough orange blossom fragrances in this vein to be picky about them, and the green opening is putting me off a bit. Otherwise it's a lovely fragrance. Maybe a tiny bit better than 7.5, but not quite an 8 for me personally.

Orange Blossom Honey

First things first - how beautiful is this bottle? This romantic interpretation of the already very successful l'Air du Temps bottle perfectly matches my taste. When I saw that the fragrance notes also aligned with my preferences, I was in seventh fragrance heaven and nothing stood in the way of a blind purchase.

After a zesty-bitter start, the scent quickly reveals its honey-sweet orange blossom heart on my skin. The heart and base notes form a beautifully creamy and soft unity, with the orange blossom and honey definitely dominating over the mimosa and tonka bean.

If the scent were a color, it would be a rich, sunlit bright amber. Warm and golden yellow and inviting.

Overall, the scent impression, once it settles, is very sweet and surprisingly dense. However, the perfume never becomes intrusive or annoying. Rather, it envelops you in a fairy-like aura - despite its strong presence.

To describe the scent, one could throw around numerous beautiful adjectives - delightful, lovely, enchanting, captivating...
However, I think an additional woody or subtly smoky accord in the base would have crowned the fragrance. An extra note that would have softened the sweetness a bit and given it a little twist, a bit more profile.
I do like the fragrance as it is - in its honey-sweet loveliness - very much. However, for this almost narcotic sweetness, I personally need to be in the right mood. When I am, the scent caresses me all the more beautifully.

Addendum: Unfortunately, the scent is ultimately too sweet for me and must therefore move on, which is a shame for the pretty bottle.

Dream Bottle

I bought the bottle blind, found it beautiful. I also like opaque bottles. I thought the scent was quite acceptable but also very sweet, actually too sweet for me.

Unfortunately, my daughter snatched it away from me;
well - first of all, I can't really say no to her, and besides, the scent suits her much better:
a busy little bee that loves to eat honey, mandarins, and oranges,
and sometimes she can be a bit of a delicate flower too..

Mom's Wedding Scent..

No, it wasn't this one, but definitely L'Air du Temps Eau de Toilette. I have given my mom a bottle from time to time; for her, it's a scent that evokes memories. Fortunately, my parents have long since celebrated their golden wedding anniversary and are both still lively. Today, the child who finds L'air du Temps completely unappealing is testing this version. Either I'm imagining it, but for me, the original L'air du Temps briefly flashes back; I perceive a strong orange blossom, a honey note. Yves Rocher once launched a honey scent Petit - Attitude Bee, which I also once owned. For me, it also slightly leans towards Vânira Moorea (Petitgrain). Marie Antoinette's poison is thus honey-soaked orange blossom. The light citrus in the opening fades, and on my skin, I have a truly beautiful honey/orange blossom cream. This is how I envisioned Houbigant Quelque Fleurs.
