I agree with all of the reviews so far, and especially with mademoiselle nicole's "heartbreakingly beautiful."

The top note of En Passant is gorgeous, perfect lilac, which is a multi-layered scent in itself. It reminds a bit of vintage Diorissmo, perhaps because i tend to perceive lilac and muguet as similar in nature: sweet floral over a polleny, dry, vegetal,gently earthy layer. En Passant is more restrained and less chilly than Diorissmo, and the notes of cucumber and hay (or rice? bread?) give En Passant a lasting outdoor warmth and freshness.

I simply adore this perfume and my only complaint is that I wish it lasted longer, especially since it is so expensive. It dries down quickly and almost disappears from me in about one hour. The fleeting quality of En Passant certainly fits its name, but that is some pricey poetry! It reminds me of Baudelaire's "fugitive beauté" in "A une passante: "Ô toi que j'eusse aimée, ô toi qui le savais!" [O you whom I would have loved, O you who knew it!]

Very nice "clean" and pure scent of white lilac, and though I don't like white flowers in fragrances, this one is an exception! It is so very radiant and serene.

pure and cristal-clear.
it is the perfect spring scent. soft and clean lilac with a slight touch of cucumber to give it an aquatic whiff.
it treats the beauty of this one raw material with the respect you find in a childs eyes when it observes nature.
heartbreakingly beautiful

Must have for spring :-) Absolutely natural lilac, with the fine green and juicy beginning.
