When I first applied it, I didn't like it.
A bit later, I tried again, and didn't care for it.
The leather scent put me off (may be because it was in the morning) but later in the day, I fell in love with it! Very unique scent. I can see this scent can have strong positive vs. negative. But I must say, TRY IT. I'm glad that I did.
I sampled this before giving it to a relative. It was definitely unusual, just not my style. Prominent leather notes along with dark incense and resins. this is a unisex, close to the skin scent, very subtle, very poetic and deep, if not slightly contrived.
I really enjoy this one. Lasts a long time, but stays close to the skin. Not overly floral, more of a woodsy powdery scent.Could easily be unisex, in my opinion. There is some note to it that I think is shared with Magnifique and La Nuit de L'homme, but I haven't figured it out yet. I was thinking perhaps vetiver, but it isn't listed in the notes. Very affordable, I think I paid 12 dollars for rthe 0.17 oz solid perfume, though I believe it's been discontinued. I really wish I could figure out that basenote common to all three, I absolutely love it!
Well, this is certainly ... interesting. I'd classify it as a gourmand because the primary note that I've been smelling for the past hour is potato peels. The incense and resin are there with the leather and florals but the overall effect is peeling potatoes while wearing a leather jacket and a dainty floral perfume.
I generally love everything Crazy Libellule has made, especially the Poule de Luxe line. (Vanilla Moka? Worth killing for.) Since the company has apparently gone out of business I've been methodically buying one or more of everything but this one has been an amusing mistake.
Note: after several more hours the potato has faded leaving a primarily tobacco note. Better but not really worth waiting for. Since these perfumes are solid body chemistry might matter more than usual.
Sillage: tiny--paint a mustache with this to enjoy
Durability: so-so
Fabulosity: comme des pommes
Price to value ratio: meh
3/10
These small solid perfumes are amazing. I liked Gabrielle because of incense I think. It's warm and soft. The smell doesn't last but I purchased it to use it sometimes on my wrists during day. It's perfect when you live in big towns with strange smells (pollution...) : Crazylibellules and the Poppies smells are clean.
That same aldehydic sweetness and crystalline nature of the major "Chanel" scents, with the leathery, piquant spiciness of the less available ones, like "Bois des Isles". Fresh, tart, it conjures-up the image of white roses dusted-over with black pepper and carried in a sweetly oiled, white leather glove; although, not as spicy or animalic as you'd imagine. Just brilliant!
Something light but in the same time theatrical, mysterious, I like it very much. I think the leather note is that what makes this perfume so special.
Thi sis a very light nice scent...actually it really reminds me of poppy!
