Aimez Moi was launched in 1996, and was said to have been inspired by the earlier Caron fragrance N’aimez Que Moi, which was released in 1916 for soldiers to present to their sweethearts before going off to war. The newer fragrance was created by perfumer Dominique Ropion, and the notes are anise, freesia, violet leaf, bergamot, mint, caraway, magnolia, cardamom, jasmine, peach, iris, heliotrope, tonka bean, amber, musk and cloves.
Aimez Moi starts rather strong and sweet, and the first time I smelled it in the Caron boutique I thought it was lovely but that it might be too heavy for me. I was given a tassel sprayed with the fragrance to take home, and that was all it took: I purchased a bottle before the week was out…
