    This actually sounds really great. I love the bottle too. I had a bit of a hard time, with the first one. It’s fine, in small spritz. I liked Matrisse. Darling bottle. But nothing I go wear so much. Let’s see what will happen with this 🙂

    Pretty bottle. And this does sound rather nice – I liked the original, and Strip was pleasant too.

      I like the AP bottles too. Have not tried the original in some time; they must have redone it by now (?)

    I like the sound of these notes, so will definitely be giving it a try. I’m quite curious about the oakmoss in particular, and i love hyacinth and muguet!

    This sounds nice actually. I hope it smells as good as it sounds. I’ll be looking for it in October.

    Some enticing notes in this one. And what a pretty bottle.

    Love their first scent, and was disappointed in Maitresse so stopped following their new releases.
    This one could either be really great (vetiver, leather, oakmoss, tobacco – mentions of these note require at least a sniff!); but it could also be really watery non descript floral and lacking any backbone, which often happens when notes such as “water lily, violet leaves and osmanthus” are mentioned. Despite the fact that in their raw state they are amazing…
