Hanae mori cologne basenotes6/18/2023 ![]() Not necessarily candy-like sweet, although that’s the first impression. Boum Vanille is definitely not for the faint of heart, either. As I sit here writing this seven hours later, I still can smell this enjoyable fragrance on my arm. The pleasant surprise awaited me with Boum Vanille Sa Pomme d’Amour. Middle Notes: Rose, Black Currant, Cherry Blossom. I guess she didn’t want to take a chance on offending me with the spray. I have no idea why she sprayed it that way, other than she said it wasn’t very popular. She picked up Green Tea Cherry Blossom and sprayed it at a two foot distance away from us. An associate had walked up to me to talk about the fragrances at this point, not realizing I had already sprayed all three. It seemed antiseptic in nature, very cold and not appealing. It’s a room deodorizer blend for a fragrance to my nose. No matter how hard I try, I can not pull out any citrus, musk, fruit or tea from this one. Again, this fragrance seems too linear, too flat and I wonder where this floral-fruity is going. Middle Notes: Peony, Violet, Freesia, Raspberry, Rose.īase Notes: Sandalwood, Amber, Cedar, Musk.īoum’s Green Tea Cherry Blossom offered little more in the way of fragrance but hardly enough to make me want to continue sniffing my arm. More of an unequal blending that spits out as maybe this, maybe that with no prominence to it.īoum’s Top Notes: Sugar Cane, Wild Strawberry, Black Tea. I could imagine the Black Tea overtaking Cedar while the musk swirls around in a whirlwind masking the fruits. I re-applied it heavily, but I could not distinguish the fruitiness from it and it still reminded me more of an aerosol room freshener than anything else. It’s supposed to be a floral-fruity, but frankly, it smelled quite synthetic without any distinguishable notes. I was excited to have the opportunity to try out the Jeanne Arthes line of fragrances, even if it was only three fragrances.īoum for women fell flat on its face for me. The three available were Boum Vanille Sa Pomme d’Amour, Boum Green Tea Cherry Blossom and Boum for Women. Only three of the line for sale? What a selection. So disappointing, considering there are over a hundred listed in the databases. There were only three of the line on display for testers and only three fragrances for sale. Stumbling around my local Walgreens drugstore recently I discovered the line of Jeanne Arthes perfumes tucked away on a lower shelf in the cosmetics section of the store. ![]() Top Notes: Mandarin Orange, Pink Pepper, Mango.īase Notes: Vetiver, Sandalwood, Vanilla. Daytime, sleeptime, it’s a comfortable floral fruity scent to wear. I think it’s seasonless because of the bamboo/vetiver/vanilla notes. ![]() All in all, Fairy Dance surprised me as a tropical yet earthy fragrance with a fresh feel to it. The bottle is chunky and the topper is a cute fairy sitting aloft and if you’re a collector, it’s a nice one to have. ![]() It moves on to a creamier scent as the vanilla kicks in, almost reminiscent of the old-fashioned Good Humor orange and vanilla ice cream bars, but not quite as sweet. Fairy Dance is also supported by the mustiness of vetiver nicely to create a fragrance that’s not all sickly sweet fruit. If you’re not familiar with bamboo, it’s a clean-smelling note. ![]() The bamboo adds an interesting touch which I love, tempering it down with a scent of paper that holds your attention. The mandarin orange is crisp, bright and juicy, supported by the mango. Yes, there are other Anna Sui fragrances that disappear within a few hours on me, but Fairy Dance lasts longer. A common complaint about Anna Sui perfumes is their longevity, it seems. ![]()
