I thought I have to get some classic fragrances to educate myself a bit and that is how Jolie Madame came to my house.
So, made myself ready for the big adventure and, oh boy, the first sniff knocked me down - what is it? I don't get this fragrance!
But hey, I thought Shalimar is not nice at all the first time I tried it.
So I'm learning the scent each time a little and started to like it.
I can distinguish some notes already! after gardenia-citrus blast it gets a bit sweetish of jasmine-orris root.
Rose wave for a while and then leather starts to come dominate with some musk and patchouli.
I'm not familiar with leather fragrances and still have to learn a lot, but I like this one already - very special!

An unusual soft leather scent, Jolie Madame falls somewhere between Bandit and Kelly Caleche, in the mid-range with Cabochard and Habanita. If you find Bandit too stinky or unwearable, Kelly Caleche a bit too sweet and fruity, and Cabochard just not girly enough, then Jolie Madame might strike the perfect balance for you.

Jolie Madame begins with a blast of sweet florals, but dries down to a soft, powdery leather. It's feminine and a bit sexy, but not inapprorpiate for the office if used in moderation. I detect some smiliarities to Molinard's Habanita, but the leather has a larger presence in Jolie Madame and it's a more complex scent. And in spite of all my comparisons to other leather perfumes, it definitely smells unique! Worth sampling if you're exploring leather fragrances.

A lovely floral that dries down old fashioned and cloying on my skin.

Sophisticated, seducing perfume. Following the tradition of Bourjois' "Soir de Paris" - a perfume for a grand night out, beautiful.With leather notes and violet, timeless perfection.

A great all-time classic.
From Turin's Perfume Guide I gathered that Jolie Madame has undergome a massive change, but I don't feel that this alteration is so immense; I can still recognize the fragrance, and it still is very beautiful.

Carefree, seductive, refined, knowing. Delicious - with no food notes in sight!

Sumptuous, yet carefree; refined, yet knowing. Lovely Jolie Madame is very seductive yet dignified. A timeless favourite.
