This is a great scent for someone who really loves Grapes. The vanilla and grape are such a nice combination. I do pick up the pepper and ginger too, and I love it because it is spicy. I hate hate hate the bottle though????

Finally got a bottle to refresh my fond memories.What can I say? It is still sunny, honey-like, fruity - lovely! I finally understood that the grapes there is Isabella grapes - not very sweet, slightly astringent.There is something really cheery about this scent.Try and see for yourself!

Love it so much! It smells through the box and smells greatly. Thanks, that vanilla isn't nasty there. It's more fruity and not too sweet.

Most of all I feel something like the grape stones note in this fragrance. Also I feel the black currant, ylang-ylang, ginger, honey and amber notes here as the most noticeable for me. This fragrance is very warm and sweet enough. It is not one of my favorite fragrances, but I really like it. I think that this grape note really makes this fragrance original enough in comparing with other fragrances.

Way too French smelling for me! Its back to the Boucheron smell to me. Im not a big fan of French rich scents. As stated before, its not awful but not wonderful to me either-somewhere in the middle.

Absolutely love this, the black currant amber, vanilla and ylang ylang somehow morph into the only violet scent I have ever enjoyed.
I believe its this violet note that gives this beautiful, elegant and unusual scent its "old fashioned" feel, although I don't find it old fashioned at all, just unique and very well made.
Definitely a new staple in my spring/summer scent wardrobe, however, it does not have the staying power of Marina de Bourbon's Rouge Royal (another great scent from this house!) and does require spraying your clothing and reapplying during the day.

What I like with this perfume is the unusual sweetness, not a sweetness that we know in so-called modern perfumes. This perfume is between a girlie juice and an elegant liquid. It is good for day wear, but not enough glamorous for night. It is just lovely. But I hate the grotesque bottle!

I like the classic and stylish feel of the scent and the absence of the overwhelming cheap bubble gum sweet wannabe-sexiness of the more modern fragrances. Great for a night or even for certain days when you want to feel glamorous, sexy but sophisticated and mysterious.

I really like the opening - sweet and peppery at the same time, very interesting combination!
I will post the update later:)

OK, the fragrance lasted all night long, I could still smell it in the morning on my wrist. And I liked the dry down - still spicy and sweet, but in a light way, warm.

Overall - I like the fragrance and I will definitely buy it one day!

P.S. You absolutely can't wear this fragrance in hot weather! I have it and I am waiting till it gets a little colder to be able to wear it.

Sweet and unusual! I strongly feel clementine peel in it, though it must be a combination of black currant and something else.I used it in wintertime 11 years ago, and it really goes well with the snow, christmas spirit, crispy cold weather.The funny side of it is that being so sweet, it maintains some very fresh notes to it (I blame it on the clementine-peel feeling and ginger).I would not mind trying to wear it again!

wow, can't believe it, it is here:))) I bought it as a present to my mother 1994 while still in my early teens. Sweet,elegant, on the heavier side as I recall. I remember I liked it at the beginning, my mom sort of like it too, but after a while I noticed it started to annoy me a little. I am wondering if my mother genuinely liked it or just spared my feelings...

Marina de Bourbon starts with sweet notes. After 5 minutes, it becomes spicy and later on, quite dry. Pepper notes are really clear to me. Average lasting.

Although pleasant at first, I am not fond of the dry out. I have given my bottle away.
