Just received the 15ml extrait of this perfume and can I just say it is absolutely beautiful it is very similar to the og and also Chanel Paris Venise but with much better lasting power they also layer beautifully together a beautiful powdery floral which I love !!❤️ ❤️❤️
I've been buying from PP for many years. I haven't smelled the original of this perfume. But PP's version is a lovely, natural smelling, soft, powdery floral that ticks all the boxes for me. It's a chic, elegant, sophisticated, spring/summer, early autumn scent that smells like an expensive high end French fashion house perfume. I'm hopeless at distinguishing the various flowers in a perfume. From what I've read, in the original, Iris is predominant with jasmine added to that. To me PP's version is just a lovely, classy floral. It's not loud. On me projection is only about 2 feet max. So it's great for office wear. But it has something about it that makes it also good for drinks after work. On my skin the oil fades after 2 or 3 hours. Then I have to top up with the little roller ball bottle of oil I carry with me. But I've read that the original also fades after a few hours. Do I care? Not when I'm only paying £4 for the 3m oil version of a scent that gats me lots of compliments. I hope that helps you to decide whether it's for you.
Option Review:30ml Spray Extract
Surprised nobody has reviewed this yet. I've never tried the original which I think has been discontinued, but I noticed that had a high score on Fragrantica, so I decided to give the PP verson a try. Really glad I did as it's lovely. It leans more on the floral side rather than powdery, but is unisex and smells very elegant and chic. Give it a try if you are thinking about it :)
