Tableau Parisien

7.4

Ormaie · 2022

Floral · Green · Sweet

Ormaie Tableau Parisien is a green, spicy floral for women: rose and tuberose sit over the sweet warmth of tonka, vanilla and tobacco. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall, followed by winter and spring, while summer gets a small share. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, though it is also worn in the evening and on nights out. Voters mostly call it feminine, with some reading it as classic or masculine. It opens green and lightly spicy with petitgrain, basil, ginger and mandarin orange. In the heart, rose, heliotrope, tuberose and spices form a floral body. In the base, tonka bean, tobacco, vanilla and benzoin sweeten and soften the scent.

Dans Ma Bulle de Musc

7.5

Carven · 2022

Fresh · Floral · Sweet

Carven Dans Ma Bulle de Musc is a fresh, powdery floral built around rose, violet and musk, made for women. It opens with ozonic notes, cyclamen and pink pepper for a light, airy start. Rose, lily of the valley, violet and jasmine lead the heart, with dragée adding a soft sweetness. Musk, sandalwood and amber settle it onto a warm, powdery base. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and keeps a low profile. Voters spread their picks fairly evenly across the four seasons, with spring slightly ahead, and lean towards office and leisure wear. Narciso Rodriguez For Her L'Eau and Montale Roses Musk share a close profile.

Prodigieux Néroli - Le Parfum

6.6

Nuxe · 2023

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Nuxe Prodigieux Néroli - Le Parfum is a unisex scent that carries the fresh opening of petitgrain and bergamot into a floral heart of orange blossom. Petitgrain and bergamot open citrusy, green and bright. In the heart, Provençal lavender and orange blossom bring the floral side forward. Musk sits quietly in the base and softens the scent; the overall impression is fresh, lightly sweet and clean. Voters find its longevity weak and its sillage moderate. Its light, fresh build suits warm weather and everyday wear. Le Labo Fleur d'Oranger 27 and Penhaligon's Castile have a close profile.
