I knew there was another perfume bottle there, and it had to do with Christmas, and this is it. I think my mother's a tassel on it.

The extrait is superior (do locate some, please) and the vintage richer, but one could do much worse than the current edt, so enjoy!!Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-22490014758131635242011-12-24T08:55:05.458+00:002011-12-24T08:55:05.458+00:00T,

I hope you do ...T,<br /><br />glad you enjoyed the review :-)<br />I hope you do find a bit of the extrait as most Carons are deliciously good in that concentration (even many modern ones). <br /><br />The boosting of rose can be a little dangerous, I personally believe: to many of us it can bring on instant images of dusty, old pot-pouri; not a good thing.Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-40299418708580297982011-12-24T08:52:45.737+00:002011-12-24T08:52:45.737+00:00A,

It's as you say, we have been conditioned to expect yuletide, so the spontaneous response "where's the Xmas in it?" is one that is expected and rather predictable. <br />Theorema is beautiful and very festive (all that chocolate-y warmth, all that subtle, quiet oriental bottom). My only complaint is it doesn't last too long :-Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-78867817426908364322011-12-23T18:23:32.768+00:002011-12-23T18:23:32.768+00:00Thanks for the great description.

NdN is actually one of the few I like somewhat also in the modern edt, which I have. Nuit de Noel parfum, then!<br /><br />caciocaciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17902017914305322799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-36809011072556441682011-12-23T15:47:26.918+00:002011-12-23T15:47:26.918+00:00I had a sample of vintage extrait that I loved.

I'm hoping that if I can get a sample of the modern extrait it will live up to your wonderful description.

I'm still wearing it this month--alternating with more festive, spicier scents like Fendi Theorema. Some days I'm more in the mood for that warm, pensive glow than I am for the spiked punch. (Theorema is actually a fairly subtle scent, but compared to the wispy things I usually wear it's likeAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00068671443994496718noreply@blogger.com
