Do let me know what you think, C — wish I had managed to get samples of all 4.

Interesting ad, and I would say un-Guerlainish except that I don't follow advertising closely enough to say — for all I know, most of their new ads look equally young & hip.

Happy Birthday, Shalimar!

I'll be sniffing the new Fragonards on my next trip to NYC. I currently wear Lune de Miel, Reve Indien, Eau Fantasque, and Fragonard de Fragonard. Cette Nuit La sounds like something I would enjoy.

Wow, I missed that entirely. Will have to go see if I can hunt it up on one of the perfume ad sites.

Seeing the Shalimar bottle reminds me of that ridiculous ad campaign for Shalimar Light a while back…the one with Keith Richards' and Patti Hansen's daughters. That struck me as a little odd…they were obviously going for the young & glamorous look, but Theodora and Alexandra Richards? Not exactly hot properties.

For a second, I thought that bottle and box for Shalimar were of my dad's old favorite Crown Royal whiskey.

L, got a sample of Soudain, which was my early favorite based on a quick spray on paper — which I already figured it would be, based on the notes. Hopefully will manage to review it soon.

M, I don't love any of the old Fragonards myself, although I adore Eau de Garrigues from the Naturals line. Gave these all a quick spray on paper at Barneys & would say they are well done. Soudain is the only sample I was able to snag though!
