I bought this fragrance solely because of its name
I was young and romantic, and French was THE language of love
I annoyed my teacher to translate the name of the perfume for me and
enrolled in French as my second living foreign language.
All just because of this fragrance ....
I don't know if I'm becoming nostalgic as I get older
or if my nose is too dull for modern scents, but I love these
old classic fragrances
somehow it reminds me of Chanel No 19
a chypre scent that is also very floral
At first, bergamot (I love it) and aldehydes waft around my nose
a little later, the white flowers unfold
my beloved freesias and jasmine, and the soapy rose is also white
powdery and soft, oak moss, patchouli, and sandalwood envelop me
preventing the scent from becoming sweet or heavy
wonderful fragrance, a masterpiece, as is often the case with Yves Rocher
such a shame that this scent is no longer available
the sillage is extraordinary, and the fragrance lasts easily 10 hours on the skin
the bottle is typically retro, classically angular, I like it
however, I have transferred it into a spray for application
I’m not fond of splash bottles
I see En avril un soir as unisex, it can easily
be worn by a man as well.
Yes, it's really something special! I've had it in my collection for at least 25 years, and it's still flawless. Chypre isn't usually my type, but I like this one precisely because it's so different from what I usually have.
