Chiffon Peony Freesia Victoria`s Secret for women

Victoria’s Secret CHIFFON PEONY FREESIA is the sixth and final of the ill-fated Parfums Intimes series, which appears to have been definitively discontinued not terribly long after being launched! This fragrance offers the light florality of freesia mingling with peony in a pleasant ever-so-lightly resinous base. There are also occasional tiny wafts of a smell not unlike that of wet paint, as evidenced by the fact that earlier today when I walked downstairs to get the mail, I mused to myself, “Oh someone must be painting the hall.” In fact, it was CHIFFON PEONY FREESIA!

For some reason, although I have zero tolerance for plastic notes, I am not plagued by headaches when confronting gasoline, rubber cement, glue, or wet paint. Oddly enough, if the truth be known, I rather like those smells. I don’t want to give the impression that CHIFFON PEONY FREESIA just smells like wet paint—-most of the time, it does not-—but while wearing it I do detect a few light wafts of a paint-like note now and then.

The good news about this fragrance, which I feared would not work for me at all, is that the peony note is not the one that makes me cringe. Victoria’s Secret may not create bona fide, old school, big-time perfumes, but among their "prestige" lines are entirely wearable fragrances, which have obviously survived a testing period before they are launched, as I’ve yet to encounter one that makes me physically ill.

This bottle, and also that of VELVET AMBER BLACKBERRY, the fifth in the series, is not nearly as nice as those of the first four edps, and I do not believe that the liquid inside is on the same quality level either. LACE, CASHMERE, SILK, and SATIN were apparently discontinued last year--in all likelihood because they were charging much more for them than Secret Garden-donning VS clientele are accustomed to paying. But this is a perfectly fine ordinary floral fragrance for everyday wear and unlikely to offend anyone except perhaps those with marked sensitivity to paint fumes.

Not that any of this matters much, since it’s been discontinued…

I can't wait to try this! (I have been staying away from Victoria's Secret for good reason... very addictive!)

This sounds light, feminine, delicious and divine! I might have to make an excuse to pop down and try this out this week! ;) Nice break to my routine and a sweet treat. :)

Has anyone bought this one yet?

This isn't a perfume that is going to transform into something else through out your day... It is what it is. It starts off as a mixture of Vanilla, Peony and Freesia, and it ends as a mixture of Vanilla, Peony and Freesia ;)Honestly that's what I love about it. Its not trying to over complicated or something its not. Its delicate, feminine and luxurious. Its a great floral, though the peony is by far the strongest note but that's not a down side. The bottle and Carton are simply gorgeous!

smells just like issey myiake edt! very very identical...so if you like issey!

This is very soft, fresh and floral. I can really smell the peonies. I can see this as a summer scent. Probably my favorite of the Parfums Intimes collection. Not sure of the lasting power. I like another VS scent; so this is a maybe as far as a purchase.
I want to add that this reminds me very much of the E.A'S "Pretty" which has better lasting power, but I like Chiffon slightly better as a scent.

this smells extremely flowery the peony is so strong. this is the type of scent that makes me sneeze as soon as i spray it. makes my allergies act up but i love the color of the bottle its very pretty!

This is very very floral. Like sraight from the garden...fresh petals.
