Light and Happiness in a Bottle..
Not all lemons are created equal, poor things, so often misunderstood - air fresheners, toilet cleaners.. such a bad reputation, so undeserved.
Fortunately, Chanel has created CEV. Probably the most beautiful and natural floral citrus scent I have ever smelled. It is elegant, it is Chanel reigning in a fragrant orchard with lemons, bergamots, and blooming magnolias!
Jacques Polge is of course a genius, he has created this exceptional fragrance. If the original Cristalle is an icy winter day in a bottle, then this flanker is a beautiful, blooming spring day!
CEV has a subtle lemon opening, the floral notes emerge in the heart and the base is then green, hovering over a jasmine with a hint of iris and musk.
It doesn’t last long, so you have to reapply more often, but that’s fine for an EDT.
The scent you wear when you don’t want to wear anything at all, that is Cristalle Eau Verte.

floral gourmand
Les Eaux Primordiales is an innovative and visionary perfume brand. The founder Arnaud Poulain was inspired by Jules Verne's adventure novel "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," where the term primordial waters is found.
For the extraction of essential oils, Les Eaux Primordiales uses an innovative method, the so-called high-pressure extraction with CO2, known in English as "Supercritical
CO2 Extraction."
From the very beginning, one perceives the creaminess of orange blossoms and neroli. Neroli Supercritique is sometimes intensely sweet, sometimes greenish bitter. The tuberose gives the fragrance a special floral note. Later, the musk note, the smoke of guaiac wood, and the spicy nuances round off the scent with vanilla. Neroli Supercritique is a gentle and sunny floral fragrance. A beautiful bouquet of white flowers and fruity accords.
Longevity is 6-8 hours. It is a fragrance not only for neroli and orange blossom fans but for all those seeking a finely balanced white floral scent.

For Iris Enthusiasts
This is perhaps a different kind of iris fragrance. Iris Shot focuses on a strong and woody side of iris. The opening is a bit strict due to the strong carrot seed oil note. High-quality carrot seed oil is an astonishingly beautiful ingredient that works wonders when handled by a professional. In this case, the master is Mr. Dominique Ropion. The woody and green note from the carrot seed oil is further emphasized here by the addition of pink pepper, cardamom, and aldehydes. In the background, a lovely and creamy bitter almond note quickly develops.
I find this iris-almond combination very soothing.
Iris Shot is definitely unisex. Longevity is very good, 4 sprays and it projects for 10-12 hours. Sillage is not that strong. As an iris lover, I feel nothing but love for this fragrance; especially its drydown is heavenly.
Definitely worth a sample try.

Beginning
Amber is somewhat like the beginning of the world of fragrances. Even the ancient Egyptians used it, Catherine de' Medici, many kings throughout generations.
Quote from the creator, Mr. Morillas: "Amber is a fabulous material for a perfumer. It is enough to just say its name to awaken the imagination. Amber is a scent that speaks volumes on the skin, just as it delights the senses!"
And so the fragrance here is an exquisite and warm amber scent.
Mandarin, orange blossom, then cardamom and rose in the middle. Bourbon vanilla and amber play in the base.
Nothing is too much here and certainly not too little! It should be a modern amber scent, for a woman, for a man, for this time.
Sweet and devilish in one place, absolutely classy!

For Lovers of Ylang and Jasmine
A Serge Lutens always impresses me.
FJ is festive, seductive, and sweet.
The jasmine here is not dirty, not indolic, but round and full.
The beautiful chestnut honey, and certain associations with tuberose I cannot shake off.
The drydown is heavenly..
Strong sillage, you will not go unnoticed with this one!
It leaves a mark, this is definitely a scent meant for the skin!
Spray sparingly..
