The Tahitian gardenia and the zingy top notes are to die for me.

It's used sometimes to "open up the bouquet", as it's such an expansive note. Yeah, not a beachy scent. More of a wedding one or eloping one!

It sounds like you're doing an excellent job of setting your daughter on a deliciously fragrant life journey. <br /><br />I don't know about that particular compact, but I know that some people collect vintage compacts ...

I was lucky enough to receive some too and agree it's very far from the beachy fragrance you might imagine. It's really wonderful- an excellent addition to the line too.

Maybe I could pick up one of the travel sprays for my daughter; she's a fan of Fleur de Matin, although Cristalle is a little, I don't know, Chanel-ish for her taste. Too sophisticated, maybe - she's 14.<br /><br />What I desperately want, though, is the compact in that Vogue photo...<br /><br />Thanks for the review!Mals86https://www.blogger.com/profile/09757305840611623427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-56350731950887546772009-11-04T18:00:56.621+00:002009-11-04T18:00:56.621+00:00Alyssa,

I find th...Zazie,<br /><br />thanks and interesting question!<br />I find that Frangipani has a very perceptible banana note (accountable from the ylang ylang and jasmine) and is more of a white floral with some fruity accents, whereas Tiare has a mossier character in the base with a fizzy-like, sparkling quality which isn't present in Frangipani. <br />Hope that helps!Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-88288835421079860832009-11-04T17:20:43.114+00:002009-11-04T17:20:43.114+00:00Hi Helg, glad to see this review for a scent I'...Hi Helg, glad to see this review for a scent I've been anticipating.
