La Chasse aux Papillons L Artisan Parfumeur for women

Yummy! The dry down is perfect but I have no issue with first app. either. However, the price is hard to swallow. One day we'll meet again LcAP.

Tuberose is all I can detect from beginning to end. A bit boring although tuberose can be so annoying to me that it gives me headache, and this one doesn't as it is drier that any tuberose scent I've ever been testing. La chasse aux papillons makes me think of a big field full of flowers on a warm and sunny Spring day, close to a pond where some undetectable flower is starting to rot... Not for me.

A bit strong to begin but dries down to a wonderful, mellow fragrance. I haven't smelled anything like it yet.

Absolutely beautiful. The perfect linden orange-blossom fragrance.

Clean but a pretty and sweet floral, so well-blended on my skin that it felt as if there was only one note.

im not a great perfume lover but this is defently my favourite!
i smell jasmine,lime and orange it is the most beautiful scent i have ever smelt!!!

u should defently try it or your missing out!!!

it is a bit boring for me, while I do smell the quality of the raw mats used, there is just nothing special in there.

La Chasse aux Papillons was the theme music that followed me throughout my early twenties: A pretty jasmine, linden, and tuberose tune. It's the perfect spring perfume. "Winsome" would be the perfect word to describe it. I went through two bottles of it. It's a little too young for me now, but I love to smell it on others.

La Chasse aux papillons is a great natural clean non-aggressive and a bit breezy summery tuberose perfume.
The start is clean, a bit dewy green(in a leafy plant way) tuberose scent, it’s much airier than most tuberose I’ve smelt. It feels like white, clean flower bouquet a bride might have for a summer wedding.
Soon after, it gets slightly sweeter with a little bit slight rose-y undertone. It feels warmer, feminine and reminds me a bit of well blend rose-tuberose flower luxury body cream, it’s quite velvet yet clear cut and goes to your nostril directly and evoke a somewhat modern-nostalgic déjà vu summer night feel.


Towards the final dry down, La Chasse aux papillons smells sweeter, warmer, even with a bit osmanthuns fruity sweet tart golden flower smell. Maybe because I’m Chinese and osmanthus is quite a popular flower here in the eastern part of China, somehow this perfume to me smells of autumn afternoon when it’s not too cold yet and when I walk back home from school, smelling the osmanthus from most gardens of other people’s. It’s somehow a quite weirdly refreshing experience, because I somewhat find osmanthus somewhat striking in between overly sickly sweet and sweet juicy/refreshing in an oriental way.

What a dreamy and delicate composition this is!
Light and refreshing, perfect in spring or summer. L'artisan parfumeur couldn't haven chosen a better name for this lovely perfume: chasing butterflies.

"La chasse aux papillons" evokes images of running around in blooming gardens, chasing butterflies and being caressed by their fragile, little wings while the aroma of blooming white flowers fills the air.

Like a butterfly this scent is beautiful, delicate, colorful but unfortunately it's also fleeting.
However, once it'll catch your attention, you'll try to keep it around you as long as you can, even if it means you have to respray every 2 hours :)

Simple but lovely!

Beautiful, simple fragrance. The epitomy of "pretty." Smells like tuberose and jasmine, connotes innocent happiness and gentle, natural beauty. The whole experience is VERY soft. It did not last long on me (less than 30 minutes) so for me it is just not worth the money. Beautiful but fleeting! Like a momentary soft breeze.

Wamdering alone to enjoy a lovely afternoon in a garden full of fascinating white flowers, birds are chirping, and infants are chasing butterflies. Simple but not superficailly adorable, it's the core value of Dolce Vita for me. Have a huge crush on it.

Don't know why I bothered sampling this- I don't really like white florals, and none of the other notes are really my thing either, but I guess I got caught up in the hype of this. Oh well I can put my curiosity to rest now. It's a sweet honeyed tuberose. Nice but not for me.

Very soft, tender,warm and romantic.One light tuberose lives in amazing harmony with jasmin and orange blossom.
This is "pastel" blossom, pleasant and unobtrusive, ideal solution for warmer days, full of blossom colors and ideal for those who don't like strong flowery scents.

The Chase of the Butterflies (beautiful name) comes in a gorgeous bottle and smells beautiful and happy!! With a toddler, my days are more informal and when I'm wearing jeans and a t-shirt, I want to smell happy and gorgeous and have a fragrance that matches the informalty of that while celebrating the beauty and simplicity of a white t-shirt life. This does all that and more!!! This delivers and even brings a smile and shot of happy energy you would hope to get from a $135 bottle!!
Similiar to a lighter and fresher non-headache, non-chemically version of Estee Lauder Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia. Beautiful. Just beautiful. One of my absolute favorites!

All I smell is jasmine. Which is fine if you love jasmine, but as a perfume it's not that exciting to me unfortunately. I would sprinkle some in my closet to make my clothes smell nice though. Hmmm, maybe it't a bit too expensive for that.

L'Artisan Parfumeur LA CHASSE AUX PAPILLONS opens big with megaphonic mostly white florals, with tuberose looming large. I initially thought that I detected violet as well, but it didn't persist and is also not listed as a note. The linden blossom has a minimal presence to my nose, so overall this hits me as a sweet tuberose perfume.

However,what starts as a pretty standard Big White Floral strangely fades in exponential proportion to the passing of time with the result that the composition has dwindled to nothing in less than two hours. I find the loud opening a bit contradictory to the fleeting nature of this fragrance, which, while a certainly pretty composition, does not hold a candle to FRACAS, an admittedly tough act to follow.

What we have here is essentially a Charybdis or Scylla situation: Those who prefer more subtle floral fragrances will be put off by the opening; those who like big bad florals will be disappointed by the half-time sillage and poor longevity of LA CHASSE AUX PAPILLONS.

Dreamy orange blossom perfume, awakens lots of happy garden memories every time I smell it. Would be spectacular on someone who tends to "warm up" perfume on their skin.
To buy this you would have to love citrus blossoms (I do!) as to some noses they have a harsh smell, and the tuberose and jasmine take a back seat in this one.
If the idea of smelling like you are standing in a grove of citrus trees in bloom sounds good to you, this perfume smells like the real deal.

My addiction. Soft and floral, youth without being loud.This one is all about subtlety and I love that it's a light scent from beginning to end. This scent is distinctly a jasmine parfume but a subtle one. Unlike that Juicy garbage which attempts lady-likeness by adding a generic tween version of jasmine.

That reminds me of the gardenia plant.It's a very natural perfume for someone who doesn't like heavy stuffs!!

On second smell, I do like this scent a bit more- It still smells like calamine lotion, but I find it oddly compelling-(can't explain!) It reminds me of L'Heure Bleue, which also gave me a negative first impression because of medicinal notes-

Like Mals86, I got a really strange chemical vibe in the mid-tones that lasted for at least 6 hours, reminiscent of...Calamine lotion!
I'm going to give it another try tomorrow to see if it's an acquired smell...
It does have more staying power than Mimosa por Moi, which was disappointingly fleeting, as one would expect with said papillon, instead...

Lovely extremely well made floral for romantic ladies! Yes, it is summery or springtime, but it's not so "fresh" after all. Once the initial burst of freshness fades down (10 minutes at most) this scent becomes quite an intriguing and elegant pure white floral. While it is usually defined as a light and innocent scent, I find it has some sexyness. Youthful but not teeny, floral but not flat, it's somehow a "knowing" scent. It has something in common with Givenchy Organza.
Try and spray a little more if you dare! It will become a cloud of flowers with a strong lime blossom note (which is the part I like less) and very matchable with a highly feminine elegant outfit and attitude. Tuberouse, especially is very aggressive as a flower and not so demure! The lime blossoms should provide a sense of serenity. I especially love the "honey" sensation even if I'm not sure this contains any honey at all. It simply captures the smell of the corollas which are honeyed in itself during their bloom in order to attract bees and the alikes :-)
Lovely alone, I enjoy it mixed with L'Eau d'Ambre. The Extreme version is also very nice, but it's more spiced and it pushes the sunkissed warm white flowers feeling to higher tones.

I really, really wanted to love this one. I do generally like white florals, and the imagery of the name is just beautiful and appropriate.

I did love the opening notes, which were all juicy citrus and orange blossom - such a happy scent. An hour later, though, the lovely florals (I smelled lots of jasmine and orange blossom, with just a hint of tuberose) were fading to something that reminded me of bathroom cleaner, very chemical and harsh. This may be the linden (lime blossom), or a musk in the base. In any case, La Chasse aux Papillons was gorgeous for fifteen minutes, pretty for an hour, and wretched thereafter. I am jealous of those of you who can wear it! Lean over... yes, over here... ah, you smell wonderful... sigh.

Warm, "honey-ed" floral. It's okay, but not for me (I guess I say that a lot..I'm picky). :-)

Such a beautiful white flower scent... reminds me of the Chanel florals, but less aldehydic and more realistic.

A summer garden buzzing with bees collecting honey and bright butterflies flitting about my picnic cloth - I love La Chasse for its imagery AND the perfect capture of honeyed flowers and sunshine....Tatiana's fragrance!

I like this version more than the extreme. Extreme is very spicy and not as long lived on me. Chasse to me is all about white florals, balmy lemon, spring time in a bottle. I would think if a butterfly might wanted to be scented this is probably what he'd choose. I have a 15ml bottle and I use it sparingly for special occasions. This also reminds me of my bottle of Apothia If come to think of it.

As zoka said this is a simble and warm honeyed floral played in a really soft vibe.Tuberose and jasmine wispers in a watery and steamy orange blossom canvas.Yes it's beautiful but it lasts for 30 min and the subtle, quiet and not so happy nature and it's feather quality gone too.

this is a beautiful and soft perfume, gentle as a summer breeze. unfortunately, i kept wanting it to be something more, to have a bit more BITE. maybe a tart note? this is only my personal preference, it is still a beautiful and lovely perfume. i just kept wanting it to be something it wasn't, which really isn't fair.

Very lovely perfume, one of my favourite. On my skin it resembles Aprés l'Ondee by Guerlain and I adore its not being too flowery

Offcourse this fragrance make me think about summer. Actually the most perfect summerday and little children running around cherful and pretty. It is such a delicate, happy and flowery fragrance and not at all overwhelming, to sweet or to much... It is clean, a bit tangy, crisp, mild... everything one can wish for in a summerflowery fragrance.

But the memory of the perfect summerday fades, as do this perfume. It makes me smile and relax for a short while and then *poff* it is so gone... it only last about one hour or max 1½ on me and that is a big dissapointment. It is so good I want to reapply over and over again, but that make med realise it would only last very short... like the summer in Sweden I think! ;)

Like elgab89, I think it's so much like a spring flower bouquet, it will smell like you've been rolling around in a flowerbed! Very soft and flowery. For me it provokes many memories of the Jasmine flowers on my grandmother's balcony in Italy. Although I think the main flower note is tuberose, I get way more jasmine out of it. Jasmine is my favorite smell, so I really love this stuff. A very true, clean floral for the summer.

I like it very much, flowers with a honey note, warm and sensual.

So soft and flowery. It smells like a spring flower bouquet. Very pretty perfume.
