What is interesting about these two in particular is that they are *not* modern sweet fruity florals. On the other hand, they are probably also going for a younger target group. By 9, I would think the celebrity fragrances are all the rage. And you should be proud! N, That is so true.

It strikes me that there's hardly any need to have special scents for children - so many of our modern fruity-florals seem expressly designed for kids anyway! Things like Britney's 'Curious' both smell and LOOK like something a fashionable nine-year old would go for. My own daughter just nicked my perfumes for years - so she never really got an 'easy start'. She's just back from her gap-year to India with more sophisticated tastes, and has discovered my l'Artisans with small exclamations of joy - I think I may never see Passage d'Enfer, Bois Farine or Voleur de Roses again! I feel rather proud... These sound lovely, R.

There was nothing "baby" as in "very gentle, delicate", just like there was nothing at all "tender" in BurberryTender Touch. The original Touch was bearable, but these two variations of it were rather unfortunate. I tried Burberry Baby Touch and didn't like it at all either.

The Petit Ange is powdery but doesn't remind me of baby powder or baby wipes, and in fact, many "grownup" powdery scents (KM Loukhoum) do.

Haven't tried the Burberry, and would also love to try the new Baby Guerlain. Would agree that Petit Guerlain smells old fashioned — and what a lovely reminder of your Nanna!

I also heard from a couple of other sources that Olivia Giacobetti worked on it. I often stir clear of children's perfumes because they just do not last. Moreover, some have a baby powder scent, which I do not like that much. Very interesting about Petit Guerlain. I also heard from a couple of other sources that Olivia Giacobetti worked on it.
