What about Ormonde Woman Joe- black hemlock, jasmine, violet combo.

Pleasures is really a great scent, and I think they’ve done a better job than most on the flankers. Would guess you’re right though…this isn’t the last!

Joe, there must be another jasmine violet, but offhand nothing is coming to mind. Hope someone else will chime in.

My first real perfume was Estee Lauder Pleasures which I bought in France, Lille city. Since then I admired it and I love to have a bottle of it with me all the time. Then I purchased Pleasures Exotic, Limited Editions and so on and on and on. But none of it replaced the original Pleasures and now it’s funny to see how many more of Pleasures is coming out. I guess this is not the last series.

I highly doubt I’ll be buying any of these, but that jasmine violet really does sound nice for some reason. I’m on a jasmine kick lately… jasmine vines are bursting out all over the place out here right now and it’s the scent I’m fascinated with most lately. I need to pull out my tiny vial of sambac absolute and sniff. Any other jasmine-violet scents I should know about? That combo seems intriguing and unusual.

Sorry, I never tried the “in the garden” so I have no idea.

How similar are these to the `Pleasures in the Garden` trio from yore?? All I`ve of these is a mini trio w/out much of a description!

EL scents tend to be strong…and these 3 I thought were well done, but VERY strong for things advertised as “splash” — should not think I’d splash them on, personally. Liked the jasmine one best, but all 3 were nice.

I am *so* glad I’m not an SA anymore. My counter (Lancome) was right next to Estee Lauder and the EL SA and I used to have (playful) “perfume wars” with the new scents. I never used to have perfume allergies until I worked there. I think EL frags contributed to this significantly!
