Pros & Cons
- ✅ My husband finds this absolutely ravishing on me, which makes me smile after reading reviews that say that this is an "Old Lady" scent. I'm a young lady, and my husband is also young, but maybe we're just into "retro" . For us, this is HOT! Yes, it's old-fashioned, but I imagine that falling into jasmine-scented petticoats and silk skirts must have been pretty sexy, and not old-ladyish in the slightest. When I wear this, my husband can't keep his hands off me, and I get nothing but compliments. I also look like a lady, but know that there's a grande horizontale within me waiting to get out at the end of the day.
- ✅ I love this one , the Jasmin comes through strongly. I am never afraid to be considered an old lady . I am 54 and I am often treated as one possibly because I have white hair. I do like some perfumes that are old but since when has "historical" been bad. In fact I prefer heavy florals to things that smell like you should cook with them as many "trendy" modern ones do.
- ✅ I have this bottle pictured. Its a 1989-early 2000s bottle before the 2nd entry into the database under Jasmin Imperatrice Eugenie. Compared to my modern bottle in 2016, it hasnt changed all that much only this formulation is a little more richer and analog. Its perplexing to me that Aventus can vary wildly according to its enthusiasts where JIE has been something of the most consistently preserved from the line..begging the question ..are the fanboys merely reacting to aging bottles? In JIE 's case..its well preserved in its modern formulation so to dive back into its vintage (89) isnt necessary. I dont think its like no5 cologne as that ran much more muskier with its civet base and JIE uses an ambergris base. The sandalwood and vanilla is still the driving force behind JIE. I find this very comforting for bedtime. Try it.dont let all the dubious reviewers scare you away that this is an old lady frag...it isnt.
- ✅ I have this bottle with a much darker juice. This is extremely jasmin forward. Strong, potent, floral fragrance with a smooth and creamy base. This projects like crazy, genuinely insanely strong. Two little sprays on my arm and that thing has been frying my nostrils for hours.. Love it.
- ✅ Exquisite. It is hard to describe JASMIN IMPERATRICE EUGENIE and do it any sort of justice.
- ✅ Love love LOVE this perfume!
- ✅ This is the most beautiful sandalwood and jasmine scent
- ❌ Due to a lack of traceable historical evidence, there has been some scepticism on the authenticity of Creed's historical background. As shown by collectors and historians, no Creed perfume existing before 1975 has been found. I wonder how long will you people believe these lies... I am so sorry to break the news to all you fragrance lovers, but these perfumes are not created by any Creed, and the perfumers are secretly hidden from us.
- ❌ I like this, but I must admit no one around me does - so, beware.
- ❌ Never received comments other than "old lady stuff" from others, especially men. Well. at least I was a very refined and classy "old lady"!
- ❌ be careful , on some non-compatible body chemistry it could turn really skanky & repulsive . so test thoroughly before buying.
- ❌ Way too overpowering in sandalwood for me. Did not like.
- ❌ I just received a sample. First impression is bad, mostly fecal, maybe urine
- ❌ For me it’s a big dislike.
