Just what i was looking for!

This sent is right up my ally, I was looking for a long lasting perfum and loved the notes on this one.

Gorgeous vintage-inspired floral chypre

Antique Nouveau is a gorgeous vintage-inspired floral chypre with an emphasis to my nose on jasmine. This evokes a sophisticated air from a certain time while maintaining a reverence for the fragrances of natural places. I met a friend while wearing this, and he enthusiastically complimented me on my choice, just adored this. I’ll be happy to have a bottle in my collection.

Luminous chypre

Chypres are my favorite, and this is a really lovely exemplar - a little dusty from the oakmoss, a little spicy, a little floral, the overall effect of which is sumptuous. This is not a heavy chypre, though - it's very airy, at least in the edp. I am getting a full bottle! Definitely try if you like chypres, but I also recommend it if you're not sure or you've found some chypres too fusty - it's a friendly chypre, while still clearly smelling like the classics. Love!

“You smell like the holidays!”

I wore this to a Dr’s appointment I had last week and as soon as one of the nurses walked in, she told me how wonderful I smelled and that I ‘smelled like the holidays,’ which made me smile. And then this same nurse left the room I was in and II could still hear her as she said to the other staff there, “oh my gosh, she smells so good.. just like the holidays!” I don’t associate this scent with the stereotypical holiday scents but yes.. going by how much the nurse who loved my perfume so much I can understand the connection. It’s an extremely warm, cozy and inviting scent that makes you happy to smell whether that’s on yourself or on another. This will be a scent that from now on I will connect to the holidays.

Autumnal Introspection

An aptly named chypre that is very light and has a rich allure and is golden all at the same time. Totally atmospheric to a time and place yet also a completely modern perfume for an elegant autumnal queen. It’s a little powdery, a little golden, a little spicy, and a little floral. Beautiful, and possibly my top contender for the new fall releases.
