Just received Heures D’Absence as a gift and I love it. Very subtle and lasts quite a while on me. I smelled a few in the boutique and it was between this and Rose Des Ventes. This was the winner for me. I am curious on how Spell on You smells.

I picked up Heures D'Absence today as well! I tried Spell on You and was a little torn on which to pick. SoY is sweeter and more floral. I loved it but was worried it would be too sweet. The sandlewood in HD'A gave me pause but I'm enjoying it. It's a little different than my others and I think it rounds out my fragrances nicely. This will definitely be my last fragrance for a while.
Hi all, new to LV perfume here 
May I know if I only have 1 atomiser from the travel spray set, can it be used with different fragrances’ cartridge without the use of Eau Neutre? Because if this work, I can buy 1 travel set and a few different scents of refills. Can’t make up my mind which fragrance I should get and hope I can get more than a few different scent at a lower cost, rather than a few of 100ml bottles which I might end up not using much of some.

Thought I would update this thread on my Heures D'Absence purchase. After living with this fragrance for about a week now, I'm really enjoying it. I was worried in the first couple of days that I'd make the wrong choice (HD'A vs SoY) - I think due to the sandlewood undertones. But I'm really loving it! It's very different for me generally - and very different specifically to my other LV fragrances. It seems to last throughout the day as my other LV fragrances tend to do. I love how this scent rounds out my collection and I love having a variety of choices each morning based on what I'm in the mood for that day.
My SA sent me this as a sample among eight others, and I am slowly trying them out. I think I will try this one tonight, it sounds more my style! I don't like too sweet or too hyperfloral.
Edit: okay I just tried it out and OMG I LOVE it!!! I will see how I feel about it in a few hours/tomorrow morning but there's just something so right about this one... still five more to sample, but this one is in first place.

Hyper-floral was my take on Spell on You. I love a floral scent but I really thought this would be overwhelmingly floral - so I went witih HD'A. Really loving it. Let us know how you like it once it settles.
I just got a sample for Dancing Blossom. It’s a little floral and somewhere in between Rose Des Vents and Heures D’Absence.
but I’m not sure if I’ll shell out double the price of their regular perfume. Les Extraits Collection prices are insane.

Still loving it, I'm not good at describing scents but it just gives me a cozy warm feeling when I smell it, like snuggling with my daughters, I know that's not helpful, lol

According to my CA, these perfumes are wayyyyyyy more “long lasting” , and essentially we pay more for the design of the bottle.
sounds like a marketing gimmick to me
Any fellow fans of Les Sables Roses? It’s my fave!
I was just at LV today and got a sample of it from my CA. I love it also. I used to wear Flowerbomb and the undertones are similar.
I was speaking to an SA yesterday and they informed me that along with the limited edition bottle designed by famed architect Frank Gehry the perfume is 30% more concentrated with more essential oils in it. The perfume itself is not limited edition and they can refill it with the same scent; it's just the bottle that is limited edition.
I did spray Dancing Blossom on one wrist and Spell on You on the other wrist and even after showering the Dancing Blossom scent was still on me.
