Baiser Vole Eau de Toilette Cartier for women

Baiser Vole EDT is pretty similar to the OG, and has surprisingly decent longevity for an edt. However, it's missing that 'something special' of the EDP, it's missing the oomph factor. It's like the lily from the EDP without that bright, green crystalline touch.

Sharp, green, soapy, artificial unidentified flowers. This is not a true Lily. This is a major scrubber for me. Immediate associations: funeral, old money, cut grass, wet clothes.

5/10

I'm a gigging musician, and during the holidays I often get hired to play holiday parties for very well-to-do families. One such party took place in a mansion where they had a 20 foot Christmas tree that was covered, bottom to top, in fresh lilies. Not sure I understand that decorative choice, but this perfume reminds me of how that house smelled.
Fresh and cool florals, a green note like clipped flower stems, and a vague clean smell that could be shampoo, or floor cleaner, or fancy soap... or something like that. It's pretty, but doesn't have much character imo

Blind bought this bottle in 100 ml , on the whim of reviews and notes .

Love a green floral but was this such a disappointment !

It’s so sharp and spicy from first whiff. Stays the same throughout with me but I can’t get over it’s synthetic , waxy , citrus herb notes .🤢 and the EDT doesn’t apparently have citrus notes.

I’m actually getting a headache and so sad It didn’t work on my skin and that I didn’t anticipate it being a fresh spicy fragrance with hardly any floral hues .

It reminds me of the citrus insect repellent . Definite no for me !!!

It smells like wet dirty laundry. Absolutely horrible

I personally prefer this variant to the perfume, although I adore that one as well. The EDP scent is heavier, more festive, I smell an Easter banquet in the back garden, a magical evening with loved ones surrounded by lilies and tulips. EDT is a greener, more oxygenated fragrance focused on the whole flower, not just the floral part. It smells like a vase of lilies and white tulips freshly picked and sprinkled with dew. It's a great fragrance for a strong outfit, a navy blue suit, a shoe with kitten heels, a perfectly white collar with petticoat blouse and a very cold attitude, that the vibe this perfume give to me. I adore it. I can't say it's a mature perfume, because the perfumes don't have age groups, but certainly is a fragrance for a powerful, carieristic, feminist woman, I only see it worn by a very smart, determined, prickly and cold woman, that woman who smiles only in private life, that woman who lifts people to their feet when she enter a room. But be careful the perfume will not miraculously transform the wearer in this description, the perfume only accessorizes the lady, does not change her, so if you wear it and expect to turn a pink outfit with a mini skirt into an outfit as refined as the one described above or a sugar baby into Safra Catz nah, the perfume will certainly sit well, but overall the image will be strange.

Who would have thought that this would be the Baiser Vole I would like the most? I hopped on the Baiser Vole bandwagon in an attempt to try a fragrance that smelled like creamy body lotion. For some reason when I first tried the edp, it smelled too green for me. It was the mixing of the green with the soft powdery sweetness that seemed unsettling to my nose. Also, it smelled warm instead of cool on my skin.

I next tried the Essence because I thought it was the green notes that I wasn’t liking. The vanilla was a little different than what I’m use to. It enhanced that sweet dull powdery smell. At first, I was liking it. Now after sampling way too many saccharine sweet fragrances, my nose appreciates the softly sweet notes.

I had sprayed the EDT on paper once or twice before noting that it smelled nice but never tried it on skin. On my skin the Edt smells like the faint sweetness of real flowers. It’s like picking up some random little flowers growing on weeds. It stays cool and fresh on my skin. It smells like the wet stalks of flowers. It has a vegetation smell but there is something creamy about it. It gets sweeter the more it dries down. The sweetness is really dialed down but it is gently there.

If you like Creed Love in White or Amouage Reflection woman, you might really like Baiser Vole Edt. This is less green and much thinner than Love in White. It smells like a wet facial lotion. It smells good from the first spray to the dry down. It smells good up close and from the sillage radiating from my body. I have to give Creed Love in White time to dry down to soften the funky green note. Compared to Reflection, this is thicker and less green. Overall, it’s a very nice clean smell that’s also elegant.

Baiser Vole edt is refreshing, uncomplicated and quite lovely. Green, crushed lillies - flower, stems, leaves and all. It’s a bit bitter, and is a little bit salt and peppery too. But the whole lily dominates. It’s fresher and more playfull than the edp. For example: The edp is suitable for the office - all seasons. The edt is more of a casual scent, great for weekend days in spring.

baiser vole edt
stinking hot and humid summer test, one small squirt to elbow

first impressions:
bitter, or plastic, smoke - all these in a genlte floral sense, delecate, green, sharp, fresh.

im really glad i did not blind buy this in a big bottle.

as time goes on: loose the sharp but not the bitter floral hiding between the layers. it smells ok, then if i smell again straight away there's the bitter. its a floral bitter not medicinal or gross, but i dure dont want to smell this way.

im testing de lune and this one by cartier at the same time. Lily seems to be the common ingredient, some white floral scents do end up bitter on me but not this early on.

this is overall a gentle scent as is de lune (have a look at my review there) i cant think of anything that baiser vole edt is similar to. its not dewey and green with a delecate blooming fresh vibe as the notes might suggest. for me the notes and accords dont match what i smell.

i will shower later on when it cools off and retest see how goes

Attention avec ce parfum ! Il ne sent pas du tout pareil que l'edp. On ressent plus de "vert" dans celui ci et beaucoup moins le lys. C'était une véritable déception moi qui aimait beaucoup le côté fleuri de l'edp, je ne le retrouve pas du tout ici malheureusement.

This smells like green leaves more than lilies to me. Not bad but not what i wanted either. Although this is good for a crisp leaf type perfume i will remember this for summer. Very fresh without being headache inducing.

the sunflower by Gustav Klimt 1907

vraiment très différent de la version EDP, on retrouve des notes vertes, loin des notes de lys, une version fraiche d’été et plutot jeune fille, a l'opposé de la version EDP.interessant masi sans plus . 5/10

Flowers, flowers. Too many sweet flowers. Some bergamot peel.
Nauseatic for those who are not into white flowery thingies.

This fragrance is AMAZING on me, and for a very long time. Many perfumes tend to dissipate within 3 hours. This however was just as strong after 6 as when 1st applied. When initially trying to guess the notes, the green smelt like basil to me. After finding that Lilly was the only floral, it seems more like they put the whole lilly in there; leaf, stalk and flower combined. BEAUTIFUL

My second bottle and I love it even more then before. I am in the citrus fase again and this scent is gorgeus. It is not just a skinscent because I got a lot of compliments. Sillage is moderate and longevity amazing... all day a soft lily, orange grass fragance. Perfect for office.

Yeah there a flanker who can be superior to all its predecessors, in my humble opinion. He can get coming singularly imposing its aromatic existence as best they can, charming, and perfuming involving not only the one who gave him, but who's around too. Perfumes with bright notes, definitely this is what enchants me, and this Baiser Vole in its Eau de Toilette version pretty much sums up this feeling of "live perfume" from its output. It opens quite green resembling the stem of fresh roses were freshly harvested from a still damp earth, and these stems are broken manually flowing the juice from the stalks, giving off a green floral scent with a Amarguinha homeopathic dose in a subtle way that does not come to bother too. From then on he grows that smell of living roses and joins the clear scent of lily also does have a greenish appearance with sweet nuances in a balanced way, here the smell that exudes is also very much alive, as if lilies were before you and still in their stems. After about 8 h significantly "clean" projection Baiser Vole EDT behaves and maintains stability between green notes, rose and lily which deserve recognition niche perfumes, the highest quality of thing alluding to fine people, and bathed and who know how to dress well. Amazing how it ends is upright and in line with their grades, one respecting the other and all of them together designing Baiser Vole Eau de Toilette for Cartier. Fixing and his projection satisfy any human being who dresses aromatically in order to receive immediate attention!

Word of the day: refinement... (day 68)

I don't know whether it's my nose, my chemistry or the perfume I bought is wrong. Because of so much positive reviews, I decided to buy it at the store. I didn't have a chance to try it at that time so I asked my friend to buy this for me at the store so this can consider as blind-bought too. It is not as what I imagined and expected at all. To me it just smell like green, a bland green. And it smells like metal too. Such a pity because it is among the expensive perfume I bought at that time. I then gave it to my friend and he was happy to wear it. To my surprise it smell nice on him. The scent is subtle and fresh. I tried again to see if it works on me but still failed.
My friend wore this everyday until finish. I was glad that it works on him even though not for me.

HAVE A TRAVELED VERSION. LOVE IT LOVE IT SO REFRESHING.

To me, BV EDP is the flower and BV EDT is the stem. I prefer edp;

Well, another blind buy.
I have to stop doing this.

I absolutely love the bottle with it's flip cap. Very exquisite.
I already started to smell the perfume before spraying, and hoped that it was more than the lime scent I was getting.
Then BAM....lime.
One singular giant green lime came plummeting at me, and knocked me over in some nearby flowers,(none of them were lilies), and then into the grass.
There I am laying there aside this giant green lime sprinkled with a few flowers in the green grass, no breezes, no changes, and there I am.

I will say since it's an EDT rather than a EDP, it's better as an after shower spritz, since there's hardly any sillage and does not last long.
Into the bathroom it goes aside my wonderful (and better) Jean Nate.

UPDATE: I wore this on my arm before retiring so I could test it even further. I had to bring my arm close, too as I couldn't smell it at all at an arms distance.
Alcohol, the giant lime, this time some lily( not much), then the green scent. A few hours in after sleeping, *sniff*...oakmoss, the astringent bitter green.

There's definitely more than two notes in this frag. I know it, because the nose knows.;)

So refreshing and pretty. It's green, sparkling and ozonic. Crisp, cool and dewy. Has a romantic vibe, like walking through a garden of lilies after a rainstorm. Gets abit soapy in the drydown, but it never loses that sparkly, green nuance. Someone mentioned 'petrichor', I'm getting that too, hence my love for it. Best for humid days, the higher the humidity the better. Especially perfect for tropical climates. A warm, rainy afternoon indoors sort of scent. For green-floral lovers. Soft sillage and good longevity.

Beautiful! The best flowers have to offer - freshness, allure, beauty. Medium sillage, just two sprays needed to have a lovely aura of a scent without anyone near you complaining. Its fresh, deep and delightful, and it sparkles on my skin without getting boring or linear. Perfect for a spring. I think I prefer it to the edp.

I was told by the SA that this perfume is extracted using buds of lily in addition to leaves and stem of the plant, and hence the green note. When you're buying Baiser Vole EDT you're not buying a lily soliflore, instead you're buying a sprayable lily plant. While the perfume isn't half-bad it is unusual, and does take some getting-used to.

Try before you buy it.

The green notes in Cartier Baiser Volé EDT do not feel like leafy, vegetal type of green. They translate as aldehydic on my skin upon the opening. The aldehyde is not in the retro way, but rather fizzy and mineral.

After about 30 minutes, the aldehyde calms down while the lily blooms. At this moment, there is still some verdancy left by the aldehyde, which makes this stage smells like the opening of Baiser Volé EDP.

The drydown of Baiser Volé EDT is a creamy lily with a slight touch of vanilla, which is quite similar to the original EDP version. In fact, on me, when compared side by side, there isn't much difference between these two in the drydown.

The sillage is relatively soft and the longevity is around 9 hours. Baiser Volé EDT on me, is basically the EDP version with an interesting aldehydic twist. It's as elegant and romantic as the original EDP, and I enjoy very much. But due to the aldehydic opening, I'd suggest testing before buying.

I clearly prefer the eau de perfume. Somehow, paradoxically, this one makes me think of an old woman. Definitely, one should pay great attention when choosing between the eau de toilette and the eau de perfume !

I don't even know why I bought this one. I think I found it at TJ Maxx, but it still wasn't exactly cheap. I do love the smell of lilies though, and I was intrigued by the idea of a lily soliflore perfume (the fact that it was returnable helped too!).

At first spray, this seems like it could be overwhelming, but that quickly passes. The opening smells just like lilies and greenery. I love it. I feel like I am standing in a flower shop. It reminds me a bit of how Eau de Joy smells on my daughter--like an actual bouquet of flowers (although it doesn't smell anything like Eau de Joy).

As time goes on, the green fades and it gets sweeter. Kind of a candied smell, I guess. A lot of people have used the terms "sparking" or "fizzy" to describe it, and I would definitely agree.

The drydown smells musky to me. Like lilies and musk. But real musk, not the modern, fabric softener-y, white musk I'd expect in a fragrance like this. I was pleasantly surprised by that.

Longevity is excellent, especially for an EDT. This easily lasts beyond 12 hours on my skin, and for days on my clothing. You definitely don't need more than a spritz or two. I think it's a gorgeous scent, but too much would be suffocating.

If I had one complaint about this perfume, it's that I bought it in autumn, and it's completely unsuitable for wearing this time of year! I think it'll be nice in winter and spring, but might be a bit too heady for summer (we will see though).

Ahhhh! I tried this quite a while ago and remembered liking it. Actually Im not sure if I tried the edt or the edp. Today while cruising the discount stores I found the edt and snapped it up for a gift. The box had been opened but the bottle looked full. I couldn't help but spraying it on my wrist as soon as I got to the car. At first I thought I had made a mistake as there was a small metallic note that was slightly unpleasant. Within 20 minutes or so it went away and the lovely vibe opened up. Its such a simple composition but the scent is very feminine and sophisticated. Two notes make for a lovely fragrance. Im tempted to keep it but I was with my daughter when we both smelled it together. It's so nice that even an opened bottle will make a nice gift for her. I hope when she wears it she will remember the day she was dragged to 5 departments stores and made to smell everything with her loving mother.

I finally found my spring/summer signature scent. This is everything I'm looking for...fresh, clean, green, soapy, floral, mature, sophisticated, heady, warm. I am so happy with this find, as I literally just used the last drop of my discontinued Gucci Envy EDP yesterday and have been searching for something I could get excited about and fall in LOVE with. This is it.

Edit 8 years later: I still have this (nearly full). I love to smell it but it feels like a big commitment to wear. I adore it tho.

Edit 9 years later: I am finally ready to wear this. It's beautiful and the longevity is insane. I recently bought Chanel No19 edp thinking it would be better than this and it is absolutely not. The Chanel lasts about 15 minutes - the iris is pretty but Baiser Vole's Lily is gorgeous and i adore fragrances that last and last which is this.

Argh! What is this burning sensation in my nose!
I tried on Baiser Vole EDT, hoping to find a bunch of fresh lilies… but… Nope. All I got is a strong unpleasant smoke. If I tried really hard, there is a slight whiff of lilies, soon to be overwhelmed by smoke again.
Pity this didnt work out for me, I am trying to seek a gem for my mum who always adore lilies.

Didn't love the original Baiser Vole, but eventually bought a small bottle.

But I love this one - the green aspect and freshness. More wearable than the first version. Gets a lot of compliments.

L'Essence is on my list to buy when I've finished up these two. Cartier seem to be on to something with this line.

When a few weeks ago I tried this perfume at Sephora, I understood that I must have it. It's a very fresh and light scent. I totally agree it's green, but I wouldn't say it's sharp. To me it's more invigorating and energizing. Violent leaf is very prominent, lily - not much so. Even though one might have a feeling that this scent is very effervescent and fizzling, it has a pretty good longevity: 6-7 hrs. on my skin. Very playful, airy, and light scent. Wonderful for summer time. Very inoffensive. Needless to say that I LOVE it.

This smells like wet black pavement on a hot day after a rain, in a bottle. So different and unique!



I prefer this to the EDP.



EDIT Learned that the smell after a rain is called Petrichor.

Huele a hierba y a azucena recien cortada, ese olor "verde" a hierba aplastada, cortada, no me agrado mucho; pero luego de un rato me pareció muy reanimante; y quedó un olor muy cítrico con el fondo de azucena, aún así me parece mucho mejor el original.

Dura unas pocas horas en la piel.

this is lily. definately lily. i also get some zip like lemon, its not lemon, but zip like lemon. if that makes any sense. to me it kinda reminds me of a bathroom fragrance. like you just pooped and want to cover it up, or you are in bloomingdales in the bathroom, and this is what their bathroom smells like. its fresh and clean. i think a spring or summer fragrance. daytime. it makes me think of skirts and flowers. tea on a crisp day in the garden. i think wearable, but not really my cup of tea. business casual or professional or dressed down.

In my opinion, this is a very underrated perfume. Cartier Baiser Volé EDT is simply beautiful.

The notes here are not very specific, we only have lily and green notes, but I believe there are some citric, refreshing and sparkling notes at the top, and a slightly musky and very subtle vanillic drydown.

Obviously, the whole theme of this fragrance (as well as the other versions) is lily. Pure lily. In its most beautiful and simplistic form. Much greener than the original, although never harsh on me, as others pointed in their reviews.

Smelling this perfume makes me think on a beautiful image: a small vase containing one big, white lily. The weather's really humid. A drop of water just fell down the lily, and is coming all the way down through the stem until it hits the soil.

The longevity is moderate (5-6 hours) and the sillage moderate-high in the first hour, turning then into a skin scent.

It's very green and fizzy. Sparking and bubbly. Highly floral, almost drinkable and addictive. Perfect for cool spring humid days.

I absolutely love this one, and I don't understand the dislikes, honestly.

If you're looking for a modern, pretty, romantic, well-constructed and very natural green floral perfume, poetic, this one would be a wonderful choice.

To me this is a pure, clear and cold lily. I wanted to like it but it didn't work for me. I smells as though it might be expensive, but there is no development that I could ascertain. It is a safe fragrance for those who work in closely packed offices, maybe. Not something I would buy. Altogether a bit thin, even to the edge of scrawny.

I usually enjoy green scents, but this one smells like soured "vase water" and the stem cut off bin at a florist shop. Too green - sharp - nose stinging - suffocating green. I detect nothing but stems. Oh well, can't win them all.

When I hear "green" as a perfume note it makes me think: sharp and zesty at best and astrigent and harsh at worst.

I don't like "green" scents. I'm a warm, musky kind of a girl.

But strangely I am really loving this scent.

I'll admit, I bought it purely because of the bottle (swoon!), but the pefume itself was a lovely surprise.

It's sparkly and soft (almost powdery on me).
There are no harsh green edges to this perfume, it is smooth around the edges.

It's clean, it's clear, but there is something just so romantic about it.

I'd best describe it as a soft tendril of hair that comes loose from a tight bun. Professional yet playful and pretty.

For me it is the perfect scent to wear to work.

...I almost didn't want to share this review as I don't want anyone turning up at work wearing my new scent :-)

The decision to purchase this fragrance was an easy one for me. This wonderfully green, fresh and deceptively simple fragrance is genius. Its so stunningly well made that it does not deserve to be referred to as a flanker to the luscious EDP. On me it lasts all day and everyone I come in contact with tells me I smell wonderful. This is a must try and a purchase well made.

A must have for summer! It's so deliciously green and white, like entering a flower shop. Pure lily, but with citrus and green accords, so refreshing and classy!
It's absolutly suitable for special summer occasions too.
The bottle is a work of art by Cartier. A good match to the flower lily itself.

Baiser volé is a light, delightful fragrance. You won't have the "wow" effect, but if you like discreet scents, go for it. Fresh, green and flowery it's a nice choice for summertime.
On negative is aspect is its longevity : after 3 hours, I could not smell anything left.

I guess some fragrances are never meant to become best sellers, super popular or be coveted by millions of women around the world. Baiser Vole EDT is one of them. It almost gives me the impression that it is designed for a niche market, for those -few- people who would actually prefer green, crisp scents that border with proffessional cleaning products and bug repellent sprays. It opens green. Very green. I also detect lemon or lime. After 10 minutes, a beautiful lily starts appearing, still blended with too much green. By the time the green notes disappear I 'm way too exhausted smelling them, and I have to press my arm to my nose to get a good whiff of the beautiful dry down, that carries memories of spring, easter days in the Mediterranean. Do not like the opening, I was moved by the drydown. But I would not buy a full bottle. As others said, try before you buy

smelled the lily, then faded into eau de plastic ugh not for me

Cartier's Baiser Vole EDT is surprisingly sharp, a much greener, fresher scent than the original Baiser Vole EDP.

I can't say that I like this flanker. It's not the best representation of lily, at least not in my opinion. It's too sour and green for my liking, with an odd chemical undertone. At certain stages it smelt like salty play-doh on my skin. The original EDP also evoked a similar observation.

I like natural and clean lily scents. Unfortunately Baiser Vole EDT strikes me as being harsh and synthetic. It became an instant scrubber for me. It also made me feel bitter and slightly nauseous.

I highly suspect that vetiver and banana leaf also feature in this fragrance's composition, as I can smell these two notes quite strongly, especially in the drydown. Mathilde Laurent wouldn't have created this fragrance using only two notes.

This fragrance is nothing when compared to the classic Cartier scents. I only wish that Baiser Vole EDT had been creamier and more feminine. I like the packaging, just not the scent.

Baiser Vole EDT has average projection on the skin, and relatively good lasting power. It looks to be a fairly subjective fragrance, something you'll either love or hate. I would advise a thorough skin testing of this fragrance before considering a purchase. A blind buy would be incredibly risky.

I wasn't crazy about the EDP, it found it too green, the lilies were too much for me, a bit too crisp. But the EDT is fresher, lighter, pretty, I like it, I bought it as I feel it is an elegant green scent, perfect for spring, a true Cartier, vey French and feminine.

Baiser Vole EDT at it's best smells like fresh green green grass and lily stems.

At it's worst it smells like unscented dishwashing detergent, unscented summer's eve, or creme of nature shampoo.

It all depends on your nose, how sensitive it is and what you look for in a perfume. To my nose it smells clean like detergent, not like soap. Put simply, I smell sodium lauryl sulfate, unscented.

Not what I was expecting at all...I have to give this one a thumbs down.

When I first sprayed this on my skin I realized I had never smelled any perfume even remotely like this. it was a surprise and not a good one. A couple more skin tries later, the whole juice turned sour and had to be scrubbed off. I tried it on paper to see if I could figure out what the notes were. On skin and paper I smelled lots of green, but it was a synthetic aldehydic green, not a real green and a synthetic lily smell also. As I said, it turned into a sour rotting plant smell on my arm in short order. This one just did not work for me.

Let me be quite honest up front-there's a particular type of Lilly I do not like. You know, the big white ones with the pink insides that they frequently put in funeral arrangements. The ones whose pollen stains your clothes forever if you happen to brush up against them. So to me, lilly=funeral. However, I like Baiser Vole! It is lilly, through and through. But the WHOLE lilly-stems, leaves, and all. That peppery greenness is what makes this perfume work for me, and gives it a modern edge. It's worth a try even if you have preconceptions about lillies as I did. I'd call it more green than floral, thank goodness.

I don't get the same vibe as edp in this edt.
Edp is elegant, a little to green/fresh in the beginning for my like and lily is a difficult note for me, but the edp succeded in winning my heart much more than edt.
There is a trend for edt/light/l'eau version of original in manmu perfume houses, like for example all lighter flankers of Dior Miss Cherie, Chloè, Chloè Love...
Baiser Volè does the same with Edt. Greener in colour and smell, too green, too piercing, to diluted... oh, here I am: dishwashing liquid!
The lily is tamed, but the green notes with a citrus edge pop out at beginning and don' relent in the end.
Almost all the "light" version of an original floral elegant perfume make me this effect.
Probably in summer? I don't think so. There are better rendition of the green summery concept and not necessarily flankers and so expensive.

Sniffed this in a store, and it was divine! wow. so fresh, just gorgeous.

Where are the citrus notes in the perfume pyramid? There is a lot of citrus on top, incredibly CRISP. The green notes are CRISP. The summer flower bouquet in the middle is clean and CRISP/CRYSTALINE and smells sharp and cold but just right. The base is a tad woodier as things go on.

Where I live there is about 7 hours of daylight, snow on the ground, and usually it does not go above 25 degrees (this is fine, I love winter.) While I loved wearing this crisp citrus-green-florality perfume, it doesn't wear well in the winter, but will be awesome come summertime.

For this price, I want a perfume I can fall in love with. I love Lilies and I love green notes so I thought this would be my cup of tea.

However, although this is fresh and refreshing when it goes on, it didn't seem to change and is
quite a linear scent. I could not place what it reminded me of at first, and then I realised: a combination of Zoflora and Neutradol room deodoriser.

It didn't move or change and had very little depth. If you want green notes, you;d do better with Chanel Cristalle or O de Lancome. The Lily just smelt like it was a Yardley scent and almost drowned any green notes that were left.

i love lilies, but this... this just smells like Ivory soap. or Avon's Pure. And something about it reminds me of Coty's old April Fields, too. it's not a bad fragrance, it's just really not anything special.

"Violet leaf": those were the first two words out of my mouth upon spritzing on Cartier BAISER VOLE edt this morning. I have not tried the eau de parfum, but I must say that this creation seems to me more like an EAU DE CARTIER flanker than a new floral perfume. In fact, I even felt the need to examine the vial to make sure that a mistake had not been made, that an EAU DE CARTIER vial--perhaps a new flanker? I mused--had not been attached to my BAISER VOLE card! All of this should be good news for those who are suffocated by lily-centric compositions, but bad news for anyone looking for something very floral.

The composition is fresh and green. Does it have anything to do with kisses, whether stolen or not? I'll have to give that some more thought. To me, this seems beyond unisex to the point of asexuality. I would compare the orientation of this composition to something along the lines of Jean Couturier CORIANDRE. I do like violet leaf, and I own a large bottle of EAU DE CARTIER CONCENTREE, but there's not enough lily here for me to think of BAISER VOLE edt as a lily perfume. No, to me, this is a fresh green fragrance.

Maybe it's only me, but I can clearly smell in the heart a prominent impression of bitter orange/neroli/cointreau in this version that makes this version different from the EDP. (citruses are not listed here, really?!) It's nice, sparkling, but different than the magnificent lily of the other. Same lovely and longlasting airy vanilla drydown, though.

I voted "dislike" but here I must clarify. This is not a vile perfume, it just does not do anything special for me. It smells "like grass" on my skin (direct quote from my friend after she sniffed my wrist) and that's it. It's very "blah". To me it smells like a pretty boring blend of various perfume notes. Hm.. not the worst thing and definitely won't make you reek, but why bother?

That said, I absolutely adore the bottle! I love the cap and how it protects the spray-nozzle….and the shape in general. =)

I'm in love with this version! I must say I was taken back by the original but this has me doing double takes. This is very impressive , as they got this just right! It still keeps the same elements of the first one with the very vivid Lilly flower but it's lighter yet more "loud". I know that's odd. The pepper is not as prominent.

In addition, it has a "fizzy" smell like 7-up or sprite. I love it!
