This ad caught my eye, and then I somehow acquired the perfume in a swap in a nice turn of events!
I’ve been Madame Rochas this week – clearly I have a new bottle and the latest formulation. I don’t mind it.
It really reminds me of baby powder, but more floral, and that’s the iris in it. It has gorgeous violet leaf that makes it a bit green and decent lasting power too. It’s perfect in hot weather and I even like wearing it at night and smelling it right when I get up. It’s fresh without being citrusy, and I do like that.
In terms of composition, the seems to be quite linear on my skin and really stays fresh and powdery all day. I love that, because in hot weather, I don’t want anything to change too much. It is also a little old-school in its way and I love that too. I haven’t smelled a new launch that smells like this – and it definitely has a place in my fragrance collection.
Google this and look around for it – you can probably score a bottle for about $30-$40.
