Pros & Cons
- ✅ Beautiful smoky Neroli that opens like Guerlains' Neroli Outrenoir and settles into the original L'Interdin in a few hours. Lovely, I enjoy it a lot! 🤍
- ✅ The opening is light, not very sweet. After 10 minutes it settles down and is more like the original but less sweet. ... This is an airy spring day, fruit blossom turning to ripe fruit scent.
- ✅ Arrived in the mail yesterday and I am smitten. ... Burning Neroli in my opinion is very Neroli focused and I only mildly get L'Interdit DNA. Sweet but not too sweet. ... I'd say it's a Springtime Neroli scent; it arrived at the perfect time.
- ✅ This is my favourite version of L’interdit. It is so fresh, the Neroli is so pure and the sweetness of the original lingers gently through this composition. ... Beautiful in summer heat, classy for day and night and I think year round.
- ✅ Tested it today I quite like it, it remained the OG dna without the bubble gummy headache inducing tuberose … replaced with an earthy and a bit woody dusty base~ opens with a sweet a bit candy like neroli !! ...
- ❌ I just test it out and it’s almost exactly the same as l’interdit edition millesime that I already have, I’m actually wearing both and I really can’t tell the difference, I don’t get any patchouli in this “new” version at all . It seems like a re-named the old flanker to release a new flanker faster…. Disappointing
- ❌ I finally had a chance to try this perfume today, and it was underwhelming. It is very similar to the original Interdit but somehow more stale, stuffy and heavy. I love neroli but here I can hardly smell it. ... this year's Burning Neroli smells like suffocating white flowers with patchouli (and I love patchouli, just not the way it's done here).
- ❌ It was a blind buy that I kinda regret because it smells a little bit like a sunscreen which I hate. It's weird to me that I can't find anyone else mentioning this.
- ❌ I dont like it at all, to my sorrow, smells like cheap granddad parfym from my childhood, nauseating, something is so off putting in it
