I tried this in Tenerife. I think it’s really nice. it smells of christmas.
though I’m not sure if it suits me. I want my mum to try it.

and Robin, I honestly don’t know if the side of bottle it plastic or not, I didn’t pay attention.

the bottle is a little hard to pick up and I was scared of dropping it and is a bit hard to hold. but really I think everything else about the bottle is nice, even the cap.

True, but even though Coco Mademoiselle is a huge seller, I don’t think anyone thinks it’s a masterpiece in any artistic sense. At any rate, not everything can be a masterpiece, right?

I’m with Robin on this, I think it’s a very pretty perfume. Whilst it might be the perfumista’s lament that there’s no Guerlainade base, it’s actually a very lovely (no pun intended) perfume.

I would happily buy this for my girlfriend because, knowing her skin type she would smell delicious with it on.

Some of the sniffy comments here remind me of the reaction Coco Mademoiselle received when that came out, before it went on to be one of Chanel’s biggest hits in years. I also think that’s a lovely perfume, feminine, sexy and very few women can’t wear it well.

Mind you having said all that, my girlfriend has the remarkable ability to wear L’Anarchiste and make it smell fantastically beautiful, honestly, the transformation on her skin is quite extraordinary.

No I don’t like Idylle at all but as usual the bottle’s nice.

That is true. But as some already have written, it is a little softer as Lovely. I would pick up Lovely over Narciso Rodriguez for her, and Guerlain Idylle over Lovely.

That seems to be the consensus.

I finally got a sniff of it. It reminds me of Lovely from Sarah Jessica Parker.
