1/16/2012: Coty's Muguet de Bois (new EdT)- Bright, beautiful, sparkling LOTV- Credited by Roudnitska (Diorissimo's creator) as the best LOTV ever... But scent disappates (disappears!) only minutes after application. Wore this as a teenager, now it's back & can be purchased for $10-$12/bottle. I love it, & purchased a few bottles to liberally spritz bed linens, hair, whatever.

I managed to find a vintage bottle of this (probably dating from the late 60s or even early 70s) and it's absolutely magnificent. But I think I will save it for spring/summer as that's when Lily of the Valley smells best for me.
I must point out that this is not in the league of Diorissimo (which has to be the ultimate scent in this category of floral) but is much less sparkling and less nuanced being a much more straightforward "Muguet" with overtones of green.
But, given the price difference between this one and Dior's masterpiece, who's complaining?

I found a bottle of this at an estate sale about a year ago - it was from 1995 and nearly full. The scent is really beguiling, I have to say. Definitely full-on Lily of the Valley, and a bit of green behind it. I also detect some spices; like a hint of cardamon or rosemary. The sandalwood is strong at the end, but pleasant. I don't see this so much as a floral, but more of an aldehyde fragrance. You can detect a BIT of rose, but more like rose from potpouri, not fresh roses.

I don't have many uses for this (much too sweet for a male, I think), but enjoy smelling it now and again, and put a few drops here and there to make the place smell nice. I have a feeling my 16-year-old bottle is probably a less contrived formulation than what is available right now, so I'll hold on to it.

Somehow a small parfum spray, likely 1980s, appeared on my desk. No cap, dark color, a certain victim of oxidation. I expected the worst...but, despite this, it manages to be absolutely delightful! The alcohol takes a minute or so to blow off, and there is certainly a "boozy" quality thanks to the oxidation, but I still enjoy this deep rosy lily on a velvet background of green woods. I give this bottle in particular a 3 or 4/10, and I am still managing to enjoy it, so now I'm on the hunt for other vintages in better condition.

I generally like Lily of the Valley, but this particular one is a little too strong and green for my taste...had the same problem with Diorissimo. Wish it were a little warmer and muskier.

I had this as a young girl and it smelled exactly like lily of the valley. Very fresh and girly. The bottle was opaque green and beautifully matched the lovely scent. I have not tried the reformulation. I prefer to remember it the way it was.

An absolute classic for any occasion. Goes with furs. Goes with jeans.

It's sad that for many the only experience they have had with this once lovely scent is the recent and truly vile flacon mist version, which smells like a combination of paint thinner and hair permanent solution until dry down. I just tossed the 2 horrid bottles of flacon mist I mistakenly purchased on e-bay. I now possess a true vintage bottle of EdT, which smells exactly as I remember it from my high school years. Soft, sweet and innocent.

I had the original as a teenager. Mom got it for me and at first I didn't like it but it grew on me. Very light, green and sweet. The bottle was nice, shaped like a bell.

Once again Coty turns one of it's great perfumes into a knock off of itself. The original had that depth and richness of scent so typical of Coty. It was sweet and fresh, just lovely. The reformulation is cheap and unsubtle . It doesn't even smell like lilies of the valley anymore.

I had this as a teenager. It does smell like Lily of the Valley. My grandmother liked it too . It don't
think I would wear it now but it has sentimental value . I would like to smell it again just for that reason.

How bad can a reformulation be? Coty MUGUET DES BOIS offers a clear answer to that question: Very.

I wasn't expecting much from a bottle which cost nearly nothing, but I must say that, to my nose, this vile liquid smells like paint thinner.

I heard such great things about this. maybe I didn't know what lily of the valley smelled like, I don't know. But to me, it smelled like freshly cut grass. It's not something I want to smell like.

My first cologne- sweet and as innocent as a little girl getting on First Communion Day...

When I first gained an interest in perfumes, my mother ran to her closet, and after looking through her shelves produced a nearly full bottle of this perfume. She told me she bought it when she was 17 and still had it. I warned her that it might have soured over the 40 years, but when we removed the cover it still smelled like bright and fresh lilies of the valley! This scent it soft, fresh and so feminine. Every time I sniff it now it brings me memories of the pictures i've seen of my mom at age 17, yet somehow this scent is still very modern.

A nice lily-of-the valley without the sharp green notes of my other lily-of-the valley by Caswell Massey. This is sweet without being cloying.

At the top to the base, much style in this fresh Lily of the valley.

It´s a delicate and subtle fragrance, however full of personality.
