But if 4711, Pamplemousse Rose, Bel Respiro, even Mandragore have this Im bored effect on me, maybe cologne and me are not destined to be BFF. Sorry about the ginormous heat back east.
OT How lovely, the new Google toolbar not only translates english words for me ( well, some of them) but it also converts the farenheit temperature into centigrades. 7/10.
Annemarie, the Guerlain boutique in Myer Sydney do special orders from Paris each year at around October. At first spray, this smells like a typical EDC type frag, fresh citrus but not much more-- five minutes later I start to get a lovely "fresh" note that keeps going-- likely the tea notes. Im in Australia and find that even in the large cities the Guerlain choice is not great. You need to be logged in to add a review. It was a bargain, too, since I managed to snap up a bottle on ebay for less than half the price a few months ago.
Thanks. In typing passion fruit, lemon, and tea, it returned with Elizabeth Ardens Green Tea Summer, and Azzaros Now Women (among others).
Have you tried it yet Robin? For the steambath back east, Ill probably bring some 4711, Eau Imperiale, Dior Pondichery, LArtisan Jatamansi, and one of my favorite refreshers: Kenzo Air that light combo of vetiver and anise is perfect with salty beach air. Bet it was more humid there than here, too. Oranges and Lemons, say the Bells of St. Clement's. You can get it really cheaply and it has a green zing as well as a citrus zing.
My mother even perked up when she smelled it and complimented me, which is rare indeed!
It's anecdotal at best but I assumed this was a memory unto myself. Im a light applier, if you remember, and that does make a difference when youre wearing something that *isnt* light. All perfume samples and decants are hand decanted into glass sprayable atomizers for 3ml, 5ml, 10ml and 30ml bottles and in plastic atomizers for 2ml samples and glass dabber vials into 1ml samples from the original fragrances by the original brands and sent to you carefully so that you can enjoy small quantities of fragrances you've been wanting to try and werent otherwise able to.
Oranges and Lemons Say The Bells of St. ClementsFragrance Notes. Or vetiver. Im glad you mentioned the Comme des Garons cologne series; the only one Ive tried is Vettiveru. A family friend's pool that I would visit during the summer.
You can spray them lavishly, they feel refreshing,and in ten minutes you can put your own scent . I liked Vettiveru the best of those CdGs.and Kenzo Air is great in the heat.
Subscribe to followup comments via email. This summer my favorite is GFF Bergamotto Marino. Not enough to spend $150 on it though. I admit that I got the sample because of the name (and hope someone asks me when I'm wearing it.) Need to try both. The first impression is an Eau de Parfum version of 4711 or one of the other Eaux de Cologne, but the citrusy notes diffuse with record speed. Not quite what I was looking for.

Its the favourite scent of many members of my family, including my father. Im the opposite, I usually regret wearing something too heavy for the heat. But it will probably not surprise anybody to hear that I have finally decided that I am Just Not a Cologne Person. The name is really wonderful! You can email Guerlain, but all they do is list the stores in your city, which you already know about. Still, a wonderful thing is that there is a lovely little perfumery in Hobart (Tasmania) that sells Nahema, Chamade and Jicky (or it did last time I was there a few months ago). Today in this 100 degree weather I am wearing TFPB Neroli Portofino. : ). I just got it over the weekend, and Ive been dousing myself with it today. This Heeley sounds lovely, except the price.
). I might enjoy them before going to bed, but in the heat, I enjoy (and wear almost esclusively) my favorite bold and real perfumes much much more! I like the cologne concept, maybe because I love a good juicy hesperidic top, but I get bored very quickly by a real, plain cologne and always regret wearing them instead of more interesting things. Other cologne-like scents that I own and love: Eau de Rochas, Eau Turquoise, and my current rave Eau de Sisley #3. My gardens burning up except for those cucumbers. I did e-mail them, and they advised to get it sent over from Paris. Seriously though, this opens with sweet neroli, orange and lemon notes. (So I went to TPC, as any sensible person does because there they DO sell the stars and the moon). heeley chypre auparfum contemporain My senses are sometimes informed otherwise once they reach computing central, Im afraid. That's poor performance in my book, especially for the money this fragrance costs.
Pour on the milk and left the smell waft up to your nose, andWah Lahyou've got Oranges and Lemons Say the Bells of Saint Clemens! Oranges, Lemons, Bergamot, Mandarine, Neroli, Petitgrain, Earl Grey Tea, Ylang Ylang, Vetiver. I am halfway through my decant, as I had to apply liberally. Walking down the Strand, a man of Mayfair, St. Jamess, Belgravia and Bow. Mirte Maas drinking ice lemon tea on the Italian Riviera. White florals do seem to love me applied lightly, they settle in and cuddle. But for the price, you should get more IMO. Have you tried the Marc Jacobs Splash Cucumber? It would now be quite speculative to consider what the perfumer's intention was in quoting the name and content - there would simply be too much room for interpretation. Especially since it hasnt rained much. My fav Guerlain is the classic eau which is pretty hard to find at the discounters!!! Ive never tried Osmanthe Yunnan sprayed thanks. Yes have a great time in Jersey!!! Does do much better sprayed, just in case youve never tried it that way. Early Gray moves in. Eau dOrange Verte, 4711, Mugler Cologne, and Creeds Bois de Cedrat have all made their way into my icebox and I like to douse myself several times a day. Karin I know exactly what you mean about the current No 19 edt!! I dont have a summer cologne yet so I am sure going to check out the ones you recommended. Ugh. Yes it is pricey I will admit. Yes, i agree about the Chanel 19.
I love Acqua Di Parma Colonia. As does Hermes Apres la Mousson, but thats definitely not cologne.
Whereas last summer was a time of tropical oasis Aprs La Mousson, Bronze Goddess and improvisational layerings of woods, salt, or florals, this summer has been all about the chill of citrus and light floral spritzed or splashed vigorously as I stand with the refrigerator door open! Loving perfume on the internet, since 2000. What remains can be summed up in a few words: Anyone who used DELIAL sun milk as a child in the 70s now knows how the fragrance "smells". Once the earthy-mildewy bit in the top is over, I really dig it. I really LOVED this one alot! Nearly bitter.
Incidentally, if anyone wants to bathe in it, FragranceNet has a 27 oz. You would never expect a rose based fragrance to feel so crisp. : ), Hi jonr!
1999 - 2022, Basenotes International Ltd. BCM Box 1111, London, WC1N 3XX, United Kingdom. ;-/. Choosing ideal scents for very high outdoor temperatures is tricky, but Ive noticed that big white florals, lightly applied, are quite O.K., and the slight tartness of Nuit de Tubereuse might make it my summer scent this year.. Im wearing NdT today. It is nice, but it also disappears rapidly, and when I say rapidly, I mean within 5 minutes it has lost more than half of it's presence. after the first 4711 flash (very unpleasant in the nose) has weakened, the artificially lemony scent gradually disappears. All rights reserved. It is! Ill have to do a real test one day! It is not all that different in the US unless youre in New York or San Francisco. Oranges And Lemons Say The Bells Of St. Clements was composed by the perfumer, nose James Heeley. Ill probably bring my newish 50ml Guerlain Eau Imperiale its nice but I discovered thats not my favorite Guerlain Eau.
And unfairly so, as the smell of the stuff itself I am sure is complete sunshine. I wonder if it works for feet and inches and gallons and pounds.
Im enjoying the heck out of Bigelows Lemon & Oragne Blossom Cologne from BBW. And we have window units too. Were having a heat wave here too and, since I dont have central air and rely on a couple of inadequate window units, there are few things I can tolerate wearing until it cools off a bit! Perfume for Life: How Long Will Your Fragrance Collection Last? Im chiming in as no-one has mentioned any of my favourites (apart from Eau de Guerlain). Even after two hours. Oranges, lemons, bergamot, and neroli combine with notes of Earl Grey tea and vetiver to create a new English classic. Modern independent minimalism. It actually made me think of tea, though I know there are no tea notes in it (though Bois de Jasmin lists bergamot). A traditional Eau de Cologne reworked to create a fresh, chic and contemporary, Eau de Parfum whose name is taken from the rhyme Oranges and Lemons' (circa 1740) that refers to church bells located within or near the City of London. There seem to be SO many colognes, dont there? Here in Italy its not to be had for love or money, and the last 100 ml I could lay hands on was 73 euros, which is quite a lot for a cologne that lasts 15 minutes flat. I dont know if it helps, but you can find the eau du coq and all the classic guerlains (colognes included) at the Rinascente di Milano, and in other niche shops.
From The art of shaving ? The 4 classic Guerlain colognes of which Eau de Guerlain is my favourite. I love my vintage linen hankies! The only cologne-like thing I own is Mandragore Pourpre and thats because I find theres enough other stuff (mint, anise, herbs) going on to keep it a bit more interesting. Despite countless times wearing this scent I found it was gone by the third hour. I'd buy a small EdT if it was available. Indeed, it is a detail of that window created by the painter Gerhard Richter how nice you recognized it! I had been planning to review the new Fancy Nights by Jessica Simpson, but I can promise you that Fancy Nights is not something you will want to be wearing when it is 99 F. So: Heeley Oranges And Lemons Say The Bells of St. Clement's. Because it waylaid me this afternoon on my way to espresso : Stand and deliver!. Must sample first. Put some Fruity Pebbles in the bowl. Have a great vacation!
The top notes of Fleurs de Cedrat are so delicious, but that lemon zing lasts nary ten minutes! I realized as I started to comment that I really dont have a proper cologne. At least it was on me. Yes, too pricey for me to buy a bottle when the split is finished (soon! Its not terribly complex, and it has almost no lasting power but at $8.50 its a heck of a cheap thrill! This sounds really nice although the price is some kind of a drawback for a cologne which you should be able to bathe in. It is actually my fav version of the No 19, and I prefer to wear it in August and early September when it can get super hot. Depths of winter here.
I wanted to love this scent, but it was a little too "sour" in its citrus scent, and it didn't last long at all. It sounds very interesting, but I totally agree on the price! That is another nice one! Which just shows you they never ever tried to have even a tiny sample mailed to them across the italian border, or they wouldnt waste cyber space with stupid suggestions.
For me, there is nothing like coming home on a hot day and splash some Eau dOrange Verte (which was very sensibly prized untill they came up with the new bottles). Doesnt smell much like cucumber to me more of a light, aquatic floral but its great in the heat!
