Pros & Cons
- ✅ A historic creation in the art of perfumery, an icon & a signature scent that stands the test of time.
- ✅ Changed my perfumery world when I smelled it.
- ✅ Rich, powdery, overripe peach leading into mossy darkness... fantastic.
- ❌ I got a bottle as a birthday present... it smells quite cheap, similar to a drugstore perfume from the early 2000s.
- ❌ I think this fragrance is definitely a product of it’s time... it does have an old lady quality to it. It’s quite musty, so beware.
- ❌ I got a bottle as a birthday present. I was really hoping it was a fake, but if it isn't... all I can say is: what the heck, Guerlain? Where's the beautiful masterpiece I remember? It smells quite cheap.
