Monyette Paris Fragrance Reviews

A light and pretty, girly fragrance with a near instant smack of coconut that lasts for a few minutes, then becoming a creamy gardenia. On me this was not at all a heavy scent, but soft and smoother than Kai. It has good sillage and an excellent longevity.

To me this smelled of honeysuckle in pure extract form. Once I read it was composed of gardenia and lily of the valley I began to recognize them for their own individual elements but before that the combination of the creamy and dank gardenia with light flitting lily created a note strikingly similar to honeysuckle on me.

I found this pleasant and Summery but not too heavy, despite the very strong Gardenia. It's a bit one-dimensional for me, though, so unless you really love Gardenia you may be disappointed. Nice enough but really over-hyped and ultimately nothing at all special.

Not knowing anything about this EdP, I was surprised to find that it has an intense coconut smell at first, a lot like a floral-scented suntan oil or lotion. Then I smell indolic and slightly camphorous white flowers, maybe tuberose, maybe a plastic gardenia. Then it dries down to smell just like the functional scent in one of the many “coconut”-based lotions that are out there in the form of skin care products. All of these lotions have a similar mix of generic white florals, buttery vanilla, a synthetic plastic-oily almost rancid smell, and coconut.

To me there is nothing original or compelling about Monyette. In fact, it’s a little off-putting with its strong, very synthetic, lotion-like sillage. Longevity is moderate, about 5-6 hours. There are far better coconut scents out there, there are far better gardenia scents out there, so I don’t get what all the hype is about.

I tried the oil and it smelled like a pleasant baby wipe or suntan lotion. Just a subtle creamy gardenia. A toiletry you would want to use but nothing special enough to use a perfume. Try Kai, bigger gardenia scent and longer lasting. This left me underwhelmed.

This is a beautiful breath of balmy air... When I tested this fragrance, it was in frigid January, and imagine my delight when gardenia, tuberose, and a creamy whiff of coconut hit me! After a few minuites it settled down, and I was given a steady sense of a white orchid, warm air, and old school suntan lotion...? I do not like the faint, sharp, almost oily/metallic hint I'm getting, but it's not enough to spoil this lovely fragrance. Lasting power was about average on me, I used the oil. It's a sunny temporary get away to fresh coconut milk with an orchid in the glass! And I'm definitely going to have to try it in the summer!

(for the EDP) This does smell different than the oil and, in my opinion, is much much better. (My husband doesn't like the oil but he loves the edp.) This is a creamy and sexy blend of sultry lily of the valley, creamy tuberose, and has light undertones of dry and woody nag champa. This also smells like it is offset by vanilla, thereby making it a comfort scent on cold days and a sexy scent on warm days!!

It's a delicate and gentle composition that leaves an impression of refreshment and airiness.As elusivek said it screams spring,except from gardenia and lily of the valley,I can smell silk tree blossom which brings to my mind spring time..

A stunning creamy floral coconutty perfume. I really love this. It is very well constructed. I wore a sample today and lots of people said they loved it. I have ordered a full bottle :)

This fragrance is barely a whisper on me-

It's a bit hard to describe, because it's so evanescent- but in a nutshell, I would call it a "creamy green" fragrance- it makes me think of barely- ripened coconuts!

I would like it much more if it had stronger presence and better potency-
but 2 hours after I applied 1 cc, I couldn't smell it at all!

This is fairly linear on me. Only a few detectable notes to my nose. I get an overpoweringly sweet note, gorgeous lily of the valley and something deeper (can't place it).

The only thing that changes about this as time goes on, is that it keeps getting sweeter. It's really a shame because I love the way the lily of the valley is done in this.

It ends out being a floral gourmand on me. I see that most people wear it in the summer but it really says spring to me. It also doesn't really last that long on me (thankful for that!)

This reminds me of the bath oil that used to come in beads. The beads would melt in the warmth of the water. This is not for me.

Not for me. I think it smells kinda like dog shampoo at the drydown. I don't get coconut or even vanilla and was really expecting more sweetness after reading previous reviews. I do get the incense and slight powder which is nice but not enough to lift this one up to the like category. This is the second fragrance I've tried by Christian Brando and I've been disapointed both times since the hype (or notes) seemed to promise so much while the actual fragrances just didn't work for me.

what a lovely surprise this was, i got a whole heap of samples of different perfume based on the notes(some hard to get ones) this was one of them. i had already tried kai and tried to really like it but it was just a little overpowering and although this reminds me of it,its much more suttle, its more of a creamy gardenia, a summers night. in my opinion its a bit 'oily smelling' for the day, but for the evening it would be perfect. not a winter scent, even though the vanilla warms it up a bit its still a summery smell for me, my 2 young sons just loved it(i suppose you could call it a comforting scent) but i am definately considering a bottle.

Again, because of all the hype surrounding this one, I splurged on it, wore it several times...and then one day one of my students said, "It smells like a funeral in here!" and I realized it was me...That overpowering funeral home flower smell. Ick! I was never able to smell this one with a new nose after that. The coconut smell and strong floral just does not do well on my skin. Don't like it at all. I should actually try to trade or swap this one.

After the creamy sweet old-fashioned candy shop smell opening, Monyette Paris is quite linear, it settles and becomes cute, creamy, creamy gardenia dancing with the vanilla sweetness. Every now and then, the lily-of-the-valley comes and says 'hi'.

It should be a nice perfume to wear if you love intoxicating good quality ingrediants, and love something that's loud but not the teenager-pop-princess-pink-sugar kinda loud, and has a good projection.

However, personally, the only thing puts me off is that I find it too tropical and somehow the creamy sweetness can be mistaken as coconut.

Anyways, it's an interesting perfume to try on.

Monyette is a bit more "tropical" than I usually wear, but it's a very nice scent for Spring and Summer. Smells very fresh, slightly sweet, and very youthful and energetic.

Some fellow Fragranticans recommended this one to me as it supposedly contains Nag Champa. There's just a touch of my beloved Nag Champa hiding in there. I get a whiff of it now and then, but I mostly pick up the white tropical flowers. I think I'll give Violet Lily's suggestion of pairing it with a drop of Nag Champa a try.

I'm not a big fan of Gardenia (not nuts about Kai, for example), but the sharpness of gardenia is softened and sweetened here by the vanilla. It's wearable immediately, but I like it best about two hours in, when some of those florals have faded a bit.

Very pretty fragrance overall.

This fragrance is just stunning. I love the simplicity of it, the sheer sexiness of it, the sophisticated air that envelopes you when you wear it. There is not one thing about Monyette Paris that I do not adore.

Out of the bottle, this smells like muguet and nag champa, oddly enough... but the second it hits the skin, it becomes a lush white floral, supported by vanilla.

Gardenia and muguet work together here, balancing each other out and managing to avoid any sour or sharp tinge that one might be wary of, going into this scent. I get a faboulously soft, feminine, expensive-smelling mix of muguet as time goes on and the gardenia mellows.

This is a great, creamy white floral. If you have the opportunity to sniff this one, I highly suggest you do so. I love it.

I tried the edp, which was just lovely. I am not a fan of white florals, but this one blew me away. It's a very powerful fragrance of white flowers but somehow creamy. It's almost edible. Just simply, elegantly lovely

This is a sexy, creamy gardenia. Intoxicating... It lasts at least 8 hours on me, and I catch whiffs of it on myself throughout the day. So on me at least, it has great lasting power. I don't get coconut in this at all, the whole tropical theme to the fragrance makes me think of coconuts in passing maybe, but I don't get the smell of them in it- though I adore coconut. This is not pure or fresh gardenia though, if you want that go to Kai (which is a bit too straightforward for me).

MmmMMM! This is just gorgeous! I feel as though I am surrounded by a gardenia bush. A bit heady at first, but it soon softens into a wonderful gardenia, tinged with the French Muguet du bois and Nag Champa. I'm not really sure what French Muguet smells like but I can just smell the Nag Champa, and they seem to make this fragrance the lovely thing that it is. And that thing is a totally gorgeous, lush and creamy gardenia. It doesn't smell like coconut or suntan oil to me, though it does smell hot summer night sexy...I barely made it half-way through the sample before I'd ordered the full 1/8oz roll-on from Luckyscent!!

PS: I find this quite similar to Kai, which I also have a sample of. Kai is lovely, though too green for me to begin with. Though it ends up smelling very similar to Monyette, except not as creamy and does not last anywhere near as long on me.

PPS: Discovered that a tiny dab of Dragonfly Blue Nag Champa underneath Monyette makes it last much longer on me! At first the Nag Champa overpowers the Monyette, but soon the gardenia comes into full bloom and it’s just lovely!

Tropical beach in daytime, salty turquoise sea, nice swimmingsuit and colourful sarong on, sand getting stuck in heavily oiled skin and fruit punch in hand, lot's of laughing, this is how I imagine this scent.

It reminds me much of suntanlotion, not so sophisticated, but sunny and strong. It's all about gardenia, creamy and heavy. If Serge Lutens Datura Noir is dramatic tropical night, adult, full on promises, this is young people having fun day on a beach.
