Vick's Vapor Rub? Tiger balm? Carmex? I am not sure why, but this is not at all what I imagined based on reviews and note listings. I ordered a small sample from LuckyScent and have sniffed it on my forearm throughout the day. This is my first smell of anything from Regime des Fleurs. I have been hoping for the creamy and woody notes to become apparent, but they have not. There is a medicinal bitterness. An animalic oud, smelling of an antique perfume that has evaporated into a brown syrup. Reminds me of Chanel No. 5? Please let me know if anyone feels this is remotely on base to what you've experienced with this fragrance.

This fragrance surely is as delicate as it's name suggests. Sampling (2ml) this fragrance has taken place between showering and snuggling into crisp, clean sheets. A sweet, calming, and fleeting (*weirdly charming for this scent*) floral musk. It brings images of soft powder, and gentle bubbles in a candlelit bath. This has been more of a ritual experience for me. I am savoring my sample. I am not sure if I will eventually justify a full bottle, seeing as it is such a gentle fragrance that I would use before bed. If money were no object, she would proudly sit on my nightstand.
