Yeah - they got me lol. There’s a strategy to mailing out those samples! I’m hooked... definitely my next fragrance purchase. I keep sticking my face in my shirt & inhaling.... it’s so good!
It is amazing! I’ve been using Apogee for quite a long time, but this one is just as nice. I’m finding a little goes a long way as well!

I wanted to see how Frederic Malle Carnal Flower does in the cold weather.

Shocker. It's still amazing.

I agree. It's interesting how good this one smells even in cold weather.

That's not the case with some other tuberose perfumes. For instance, I tried Hiram Green's Moon Bloom for the first time the other day from my sample stash. I could tell it was a very beautiful tuberose scent, but it just felt a little flat on the skin so I put it away to try in the summer. Santal Majuscule is another one that I think might present differently in the warmer months so I am going to try it again in a few months - I think I need to give it a few more wearings to assess it properly.
 
Guerlain Mitsouko over the last few days - I have been trying both the current version and the vintage one. I have finally accepted that the current version is not for me. I am almost out of the vintage one (that's why I have been trying the current version off and on, for the last few months), but it's not working. The vintage version is the one I want. Now I have to decide if I want it enough to overcome my hesitation of buying vintage perfume online.

Just purchased some after using up my sample - love it! ❤️

I've used 1-2 perfumes in the past decade or more because I'm not adventurous at all when it comes to fragrances and like to stick with what I like. So imagine my surprise when a random try of this scent got me all excited!

Being the analytical person that I am though, I went on a mission to try all LV fragrances to see if any other one is better than Coeur Battant and so far, nothing comes close. Even the more "popular" ones I didn't personally like at all. I'm really torn about buying a full bottle though, I love my LV bags but this somehow seems "excessive" to me because I just never spend so much on perfumes?

Still, it's been YEARS since I got excited about a perfume so I might as well right?

Since it’s been years & you love this scent so much, I don’t think it’s excessive at all! Treat yourself! It’s the holiday season :) Go for it! This is my favorite of all they’ve put out so far. I’m trying to hold out for my birthday gift (Feb) but I’m impatient & the new holiday wrapping is so pretty!
