First reaction: Mmmmmm love. Second reaction: Hmm this smells familiar. After a while of sniffing and trying to remember, I don't know why but it reminded me of coco mademoiselle. I still think it is great-although similar-there is something about this that likened me to it more.

This is a straightforward lady who doesn't let her sweetness reck her seriousness...I hope that gives an image of the perfume :p. I wouldn't find a problem with wearing this everday.

I second the Christmas theme here, I can't pinpoint it, but every year my Mom puts out this vine-type runner around the living room and it smells just like this. Or at least something she's putting up in the living room smells like this scent.

I got a sample of this becuase it is in the same category as Mitsouko, and I was interested to see how the plum note came across. This isn't on the same level as Mitsouko (but what is, really) Nevertheless, this is a nice, well rounded fragrance that lasts in the medium range.

**UPDATE** I pulled my sample back out now that the weather is cooling off. And I must say I'm liking this so, so much more now.This one really snaps, there is a wonderful spicy note that comes across, and it is quite sophisticated. Love it!

Umé is my festive perfume, I use it to celebrate (e.g. Xmas). The plum is very strongly noticable, and the whole fragrance has such a sofisticated and elegant vintage athmosphere. The word Art Deco very well represents it. When wearing it, if I close my eyes, I can see myself in an Agatha Christie story, in a ballroom, wearing a smaragd satin dress, Hercules Poirot is on the party as well, people are chating, drinking champagne, and the music is so smooth. And suddenly an agonized screeming comes from upstairs.......
