Coty L'Aimant Creamy Skin Parfum - 15 ml

Product Information

And while not all of us have been married, there is much about Alyssa's 'coming of age' story - that runs in a seamless parallel to her olfactory awakening - to which the reader can relate. However - as some long-suffering readers already know - the vagaries of my hot water system mean that I have only managed a proper soak once every six weeks or so, and my reading rate has plummeted accordingly.

Most fragrances I wear I prefer to be "fresh," or, as the maker intended them (to be worn around the time when they were made. Maybe I am the only one or maybe it is because L'Aimant is not as strong as Chanel no 5, so I don't get a headache from it. Someone i know used to wear this (possibly my great grandma) and I hated it then too, which is a shame.

There was something or some note in L'Interdit that I did not care for that I could never pin down (the strawberry, maybe? The finale of the perfume is not as stunning as the heart notes (which really are pretty fascinating.On me, Arpege only works in very cold weather, otherwise it is sour, but I believe the Magnet, just like No. I see there is no fruit officially in there, but what I am getting may be the interplay of vanilla and honey with the ylang-ylang - sweet and intense, but tempered and made somehow more diffuse by the myrrh.
