This one was a disappointment for me - a very weird smell, not feminine at all. Kind of woodsy and smokey, lacks the sweetness I need. Though strange and not wearable for me, I have to admit that it comes in a real gem of a bottle!

When I first put this on I thought I smelt like someone poured an entire bottle of plum liquor out over my head. I was just about ready to jump right back in the shower to scrub it off when it suddenly mellowed and started smelling like actual perfume. I'm glad I waited for a little while instead of scrubbing right away because if I had, I would've never known what a great scent this really is.
It's sweet, woodsy and ambery but not overly so. It's exactly right.
Not a warm weather scent though, this one is best saved for cool/cold days.
Staying power on me is great, it lasts me at least 8 hours. And that's for the EdT.

Thanks to Jalutschka I received this perfume in swap. I was so thrilled by all reviews that I really wanted to have it… and I am glad I do!
I start from the bottle..it is very original bottle, nice box…
Then the 1st spray – it is a bit hard…almost like I needed to learn how to spray it..but it was just 1st spray like that..now it works perfect.
I sprayed and the 1st think was sour smell of plum…pretty uncommon, very intense smell of plum mixed with brandy! It is heavy oriental plum that starts to change from brandy plum into chocolate plum…and that is where I really start to love it…
After 1 hour I can smell really yummy chocolate… it is so yummy that I sniff myself once in 10 minutes…
After few hours the chocolate smell changes into nice sweet fog of vanilla, sandalwood and amber.. and it is where It starts to remind me of Prada...

The top notes on me scream Robitussin cherry cough syrup. I'm not familiar enough with the particular notes in Mauboussin to tell you which ones are causing that smell.
Once that calms down I get a really nice peach and ylang-ylang. It's a gorgeous, soft scent.
The dry down on me is a pleasant sandalwood and amber.

I like Mauboussin. On me patchouli comes out first and foremost then there is a wonderful dry fruit accord nicely blended in with it and something delicious that makes it very creamy and smoky. Personally I don't find too much of a resemblance to Angel but I do think it's quite reminiscent of Prada. I have and love all three :)

it's like a less gourmand version of angel mixed with a drop of lolita lempicka.
it's very similar to angel specially in middle notes.very sweet & delicious like you're passing in front of a confectionery.it's a bit woodsy,but not spicy at all.it's not as long lasting as angel and losts it's sweetness sooner.yet I can't call it anything else rather than a version of angel.

I bought this because I love fruity chypre scents but this is sooo strong. Not for the faint-hearted.

Interesting, very interesting. A friend of mine had it, and maybe I'm wrong but I found some resemblance with 'Shalimar' of Guerlain, which I like a lot
Mauboussin is a powerful fragrance, a 'here I am' one, very oriental, deep and a very rich one

Mauboussin is very strong and slightly reminiscent of Angel and similar fragrances which followed in its wake.
It's a perfume which says "Hi, I'm a very erotic person, I love choclate and cream, give me a hug"- you come closer, you actually hug it - and then it's so overwhelming, so possesive that you shudder in disgust. It takes your breath away.

I bought this for my MIL knowing she was a huge fan of Tabu. I find the two of these scents similar so I got her this one year for Christmas and, the rest is history. She loves it and wears it exclusively in colder weather. She gets alot of compliments for it as well. The bottle is very different and kind of hard to handle.
