    I live in the US. My favorite of the Fall is La Vie Est Belle. Ok, it’s not earth-shattering, but it’s very pretty and likeable.

    I live in the USA – I have no Tocca perfumes, but my absolute favorite dress is Tocca, in shades of mustard, deep teal, and deep aubergine, with lots of raw edges and random beading. It’s gorgeous, and simply needs some new perfume to accompany it…

    Thanks!

    I live in the USA… and i have never smelled any of the Tocca line, but i LOVE violets so you would make me very happy. My favourite release this year would be Tom Ford´s Ombre de Hyacinth, and if you can swap the Violette for the Hyacinth, i wont have any objection…

    I live in the US, and I love the Tocca line — very fresh and sundressy. My favorite is Cleopatra.

  9. Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the U.S.
    My favorite Tocca is Brigitte. It’s an interesting one…

  10. Posted on 6 September 2012

    A boutique I frequent here in NJ carries this line, and of the ones I’ve sniffed, I liked Colette best. I live in the US, and I thank you for the draw!

    I live in the U.S. and my fave Tocca so far is still “Florence.” I love that big, blowsy gardenia that just sprawls across your nose.

  13. jirish
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US and my favorite Tocca is Florence, which is one of their earliest scents. Haven’t sniffed a lot of their more recent releases.

  14. Filomena
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the U.S. I don’t own any Tocca perfumes but have samples of several. Florence is my favorite.

  15. sealady
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US. I haven’t sampled the whole line, but I do like Stella from Tocca!

  16. LauraD
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I’ve only tested a few Toccas and look forward to exploring more of this line, but my favorite so far is Cleopatra. Thanks for your draw, and I do live in the US.

  17. Kickback
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US and my favorite Tocca fragrance is Giulietta which kicked Cleopatra out of first place.

    I live in suburban Philly, PA, USA. I have never tried any Tocca fragrances. the latest new release I have tried is La Vie est Belle. Ok, but seems very similar to Coco Mademoiselle, just not as loud.

    Thanks for the drawing, Robin. I live in the US and have only tried (and loved) Tocca Cleopatra so far. My favorite fall release so far is L’Artisan Seville L’Aube.

    I live in the US and my favorite Tocca is Cleopatra! It’s one of my favorites in general actually:)

  22. Kelly Red
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US and my favorite Tocca is Cleopatra. My favorite fall release is TF Cafe Rose (although I haven’t sprung for it, just a sample).

  23. Fiammetta
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US, and I adore Florence. Not my usual, something so girly and floral, but I always go back to it.

  24. farouche
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the USA, and my favorite Tocca is Bianca. It may be a one-trick pony, but I never get tired of the way the bright citrus opening morphs into creamy rose. Thanks for this drawing…I love violets.

  25. muskymoi
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the U.S. and I love my bottle of Giulietta. Because I associate it with a particular memory, I save it for the days (or nights) when I want to conjure the image of that specific memory. ;) It’s just delicious. Otherwise, Cleopatra is a constant in my rotation and one I have gifted to friends.

    Hi, I live in the USA and my favorite Tocca is Cleopatra: a Christmas gift (with a biography of Cleopatra!)

  28. aimiliona
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US and have never tried any Toccas, but I like violets. The fall release that I most like the sound of is Cafe Rose.

  29. Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US.

    I like the Toccas generally, although I don’t know that I have a single fave out of the line. My favorite fall release so far is probably Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay or the new extrait for Baiser Vole.

  30. mutzi
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US.

    My favorite Tocca is Giulietta and I love the story on it (even if it is not true or exaggerated) as Fellini is my favorite director and Masina was luminous in every role.

    I also love Baiser Vole extrait.

  31. mariotgomez
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the USA. My favorite scent is Stella, especially in the hand lotion. Favorite product is the SPF 30+ sunscreen towelettes with Stella scent.

    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the USA. My favorite would have to be Colette. It’s such an easy, comforting scent.

    Hello, I live in New Orleans, and I love the Cleopatra Tocca. I love it because it smells so feminine. I also love the new Tous sensual touch for the new releases…I would love to own the Tocca Violette! All of them are really great!. thank you

    HI! I live in the US and an my favorite Tocca (so far) is Cleopatra and for fall I am looking forward to trying the Cuir series of Muglers! I am so behind too nchvatal and still need to try the Saab.

    Hi there! I live in the US and my favorite Tocca is Giuletta. This fall I’m looking forward to receiving my very own bottle of LAP Seville!

  38. Gennyleigh
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US and my favorite Tocca is Cleopatra, with Giuletta a close second.

    Thanks for another offering ! I do live in the US, and you may use the email in my profile for contact.

    My fav Tocca would have to be Giuletta.

    Thanks again !

    I have never tried a Tocca, so thanks for the draw.
    The only new release I have bought this fall is Crabtree and Evelyn Blue Himalaya which for $25 was a good cheap thrill!

    Forgot to say I live in the US!

    I live in the US, and my favorite Tocca perfume is Stella – love the scent of blood oranges! Thanks for the giveaway!

    I dont have a favorite Tocca and i have not tet been able to try a new release. Sad! But im really looking forward to sniffing L’Artisan Seville L’Aube, Uncle Serge’s Santal Majuscule, and Byredo Bullion.

  43. Lucy

    Thanks for the contest! I live in the US and while I have never tried any Toccas, my favorite note is violet (e.g. F. Malle’s Lipstick Rose). I would love to try this.

  45. accio_coffee
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US and Violette is my favorite Tocca perfume! I was sniffing them all at Anthropologie for the first time about a month ago and fell in love with Violette. I’ve even considered purchasing it.

  46. Posted on 6 September 2012

    Hi! I live in NYC. My favorite is without a doubt, Cleopatra. My good friend Jane wears it so often it had embued her essence. She’s so slinky and stylish but warm and lovable, which I feel is embodied in the scent.

  47. slundberg
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    USA…Favorite release so far SL Santal Majuscule

    I live in the US of A and my favorite release of the year is Amouage’s Beloved. Have not tried any fall releases. This one meets my every need.

  49. OhLily
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    Thanks for the give-away, Robin!

    I’ve only tried a few of the Tocca’s and my favorite of those was Cleopatra.

    I’m in the U.S. and you can email me any time. ;)

    I live in the U.S., and of the Toccas I’ve so far sampled, my favorite is Stella. Cheers!

    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US. I’ve sampled Tocca in the past but honestly can’t remember if I liked them. As far as fall scents, I can’t even think about that yet. It’s 90+ degrees down here in the south! We’re expecting a “cold front” this weekend and temps may drop to 80!

  52. Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the U.S. None of the Toccas I’ve sampled has made a big impression, but I love the bottles and am on the hunt for violettes. Have sampled only JM Backberry & Bay, among new releases, so have to say that’s the best I’ve encountered.

  53. MJlikesviolets

    I enjoy Tocca Collette, but I don’t own it. Seems like Cleopatra is awfully popular, though. Might have to make a note to give it a sniff!

    Thanks!

    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US, and I don’t know the Tocca line but it looks like I will have to try Stella and Cleopatra at least by all the votes. My favorite fall release is Houbigant Orangers en Fleurs.

  58. Addicted2Pretty
    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the U.S. and my favorite Tocca is the now discontinued Tocca Touch. It was lush and beautifully full blown, perfect for cool fall and winter days.

    Thanks for the opportunity to win Violette!

    Posted on 6 September 2012

    I live in the US and you have permission to use the email address associated with my account. As far as Tocca scents go, I don’t know if this counts, by my fave has always been Touch, which is one of the scents of their lingerie wash…they make it in some of their other fragrances too (Stella and Cleopatra, I think) but they only do Touch as a lingerie wash, which always struck me as strange, it being the nicest fragrance in their collection, in my opinion…would be great as an EDP!

    I live in the US (Florida) my favorite Tocca is Florence. So far my favorite new release this fall is Chanel Coco Noir , even though I say “so far” I truly don’t think this is going to change.

  65. Taffy
    Posted on 7 September 2012

    I live in the U.S. I’ve never tried Tocca, but from the comments, I will have to remedy that. For Fall releases, I am enjoying L’Artisan Seville L’Aube, although it wasn’t love at first sniff. I do like Jo Malone Blackberry & Bay, but it is so fleeting! Really looking forward to trying P.G. No. 22 Djhenne.

  66. Naie
    Posted on 7 September 2012

    I live in the US, and so far, I do not have a favorite fall release. The mainstream ones are boring, and I have not had a chance to smell any of the niche lines’ new creations.

    Hello! I live Tocca, particularly their Kyoto candle and Colette fragrance. I’m also a fan of Florence, and use the Florence lingerie wash. I suppose Stella might be in my top position but it gives me a headache! I do live in the USA. Austin, TX, to be exact… Thanks for the drawing, it’s fun and draws people out in leaving interesting comments!

    Posted on 7 September 2012

    I live in the US and you may use my email/address. My favorite so far this fall in the coco noir – if only for the bottle alone. I do love violet though, so Tocca would be a nice one to try.

  72. Joanne
    Posted on 7 September 2012

    I live in the US and like Bianca is, so far, my favorite Tocca. However, after reading all the comments, I’m going to hunt down some Cleopatra!

    Posted on 7 September 2012

    I live in the US. I tend to favor violet scents and would love to see how this one smells. I like the single floral notes in this line but I like their “cleopatra” best

    My favorite of the fall releases by default is Coco Noir (though I don’t actually like it at all)since I haven’t sniffed anything else new.

  79. laurenalexis

    I live in the US. My favorite Tocca perfume is Graciella. I love how light it is and the mild pear scent is heavenly.

  80. mirianv
    Posted on 7 September 2012

    I really enjoy Tocca perfumes. I currently own Graciella and it’s a super nice daytime, spring scent. Very girly and whimsical. Also I live in NJ ;)

  81. maggiecat
    Posted on 7 September 2012

    I love Tocca Colette and Bianca – the latter is a perfect summer scent (lemon, roses, musk) and the former a great scent in general, especially for offices, close quarters, and the like. I have bianca and am hoping for Colette for my upcoming birthday. Of course, Violette is nice too! I live in the U.S. :-)

  82. Posted on 7 September 2012

    I live in the US, and I’ve never tried anything from Tocca… or very many fall releases.

    Hi Robin, I live in the U.S, permission to use email.
    In the midst right now of trying the Tocca line thru samples via Sephora and Anthropologie, so haven’t quite zeroed in on a fave yet, but I do love a good violet!
    And the new Cashmere Mist flanker they came out with holds up pretty well…..

  89. mel
    Posted on 9 September 2012

    Hey Robin, I live in the US and you have permission to use my email address if I am the winner. I have not tried this line but have saw it in Anthropologie. I would love to be the winner. My favorite fall release- so far is the Marc Jacobs Dot. Like the smell better than the bottle.
