One more day of comfort fragrances, then we’re moving on; anyway, this is less a review than a brief news flash, and it is old news at that: Molinard Iles d’Or, as has been pointed out on several of the fragrance forums, is virtually identical to Molinard Tendre Friandise. Or at least, the version of Iles d’Or in the newish Molinard 1849 collection is; I haven’t tried any of the older versions. If I had to guess, I’d say that it probably isn’t the same stuff as the original Iles d’Or, which was released in the 1930s. This does not smell like a classic 1930s perfume. It smells like a modern candied fruity floral, and is one of very few such scents that I really like…
