Base Notes
At first this EdT is soapy and generically floral, with a slight rubber band note. Then it blossoms into a honeyed bouquet of roses, lilacs, and mimosa, but quickly segues back into soapiness, smelling exactly like a fancy upscale floral-scented soap. Then it sashays back into honeyed rose and mimosa, and oscillates back and forth between soap and pollen-laden honey for a while, eventually stabilizing somewhere between the two as a full-bodied lilac-hyacinth scent.
Vacances is too overtly floral for my taste, but it’s nicely made. It has moderate sillage and lasts for over 12 hours, but is never overpowering. If you’re a floral lover and can get your hands on some (it’s discontinued), you just might love it.
