Looking for a BPAL that Resembles a Favorite Perfume
Vanessa Fernow replied to Ina Garten Davita's topic in Recommendations
I can't remember much about Philtre d'Amour, I only had a little sample of it. BUT..... I would recommend The Caterpillar, it always makes me think of 'old-school' Guerlain, specifically L'Heure Bleue. Might be worth a shot since it does have jasmine and patchouli (from memory), and does have a powdery feel, in my opinion. Well. I was late to reply. Caterpillar is not something I ever would have looked at. Patchouli is kind of a finicky smell in my opinion but it's impable so I will probably have to get a tester. TY! -

I appreciate it. I picked up most of their impable tuberose and gardenia scents. Just wasn't ready to take the plunge with a full bottle of an unsniffed scent. Especially with stronger scents like gardenia and tuberose. They can go from lovely to stinky in a hurry, Maybe I'll get lucky and see it in a swap sometime. So couple months later I actually did take the plunge and Miss Spink is exactly what I wanted. I can't say it's really like the gardenia edt I was looking for but it's lovely. More playful than many of the other gardenia or tuberose scents bpal offers and that's a nice change. Now I'm wondering if I need to have the other Miss Spink too. -

Hey I was hoping some help finding a BPAL scent similiar to a couple old favorites of mine that are discontinued. Crabtree and Evelyn Gardenia Eau de toilette, not to be confused with their Eau de parfume by the same name. The scents are different. I know the main notes are tuberose and gardenia and the finish is white, powdery, and long lasting. Philtre d Amour by Guerlain - The original millennium special edition was as follows. Top notes are lemon verbena, bergamot and amalfi lemon; middle notes are myrtle, jasmine, neroli and petitgrain; base note is patchouli. It starts sweet and finishes powdery
