    I got this scent when it first launched in 2013 and I have been absolutely in love with it ever since. It has an exceptional range of appeal – both my sister and mother wear it and are as bonded with it as I am and I’m always sure to receive compliments on my natural and timeless scent.
    With so many modern fragrances feeling overly-contrived these days, I wanted something that was both extraordinary and unique. I did some research on the brand and immediately fell in love with the original and poetic story behind Attache Moi 55. I formed a kindredness with this special memory of New York and I never leave the house without it.
    If you happen to catch a sensational essence floating through the streets of Manhattan, or anywhere in the world for that matter, there’s a wonderful chance it’s me or another lucky discoverer of Attache Moi 55.
    A huge A+ for Attache Moi and Olivia Bransbourg.

    ICONOfly Attache Moi 55 is named for 55th Street in Manhattan, a thoroughfare that has special resonance for ICONOfly founder Olivia Bransbourg. The fragrance is supposed to represent “the energy and encounters made everyday in the special light of Manhattan.” It is the second fragrance from the brand.
    ICONOfly is a series of little magazines that lavish attention on accessories and that once a year publishes a large journal. The original fragrance, Attache Moi (Tie Me Up), was meant to be a limited edition fragranced bracelet and ended up being a full bottle, sold at Barney’s, and wrapped with a leather thong one could scent and then wear. Attache Moi 55 is the follow-up scent.
    Attache Moi 55 is a unisex fragrance that is listed here as a fruity floral, which does it a bit of a disservice since this nomenclature doesn’t indicate that large amount of cardamom involved in the composition. The scent is both a spicy floral and a spicy fruity fragrance, as clumsy as the second description sounds. (NB: The ICONOfly web site lists it as a “floral woody.”)
    A flare of mandarin and hot, green cardamom gives Attache Moi 55 a strong solar effect at opening. This bright burst of light settles into a trio of florals at the heart (jasmine, orris, and osmanthus). On my skin, osmanthus is most prominent, and its citrus facets sparkle as a complement to the opening mandarin. Orris gravitates towards being slightly earthy/powdery and the jasmine is recessive, at least on me, and isn’t one of those fat, indolic utterances that jasmine is famous for. I love that aspect of jasmine and miss it here.
    The scent never becomes fully floral,though, despite the strong floral heart. The base starts to peek through almost immediately, with vetiver and “cashmere” musk being most prominent. The drydown is perhaps a bit powdery; the fragrance is at its strongest and with its most persistent sillage there as the amber begins to dominate the base.
    Attache Moi 55 wears like a skin scent with a bit more oomph than a skin scent normally has.
    Since there is no particular smell associated with 55th Street, perfume Patricia Choux has had to work with snippets of a brief, like how the light falls around buildings. How does that smell, anyway? 55th Street isn’t so easy to capture as, say, some of Bond No. 9’s odes to the great city. 55th Street could be almost anything: it is a street where people and vehicles and animals pass through; it has streets and sidewalks and various buildings; all of it would have a smell that likely isn’t either floral or spicy. It would smell the way people smell in a city, as a mix of human flesh both clean and dirty, of feet and funk and people’s breath; it would smell the way the pavement smells both after a rainshower and before, and it would have the icy mineral quality of snow…in short, too much and too hard to distill. We must accept perfumer Choux’s lively and lovely rendition that is a snap to wear because having released its creation to her we are no longer bearing the weight of intellectual demand that would cause us to feel the lack of a certain note that we felt must be there.
    Although the wood and spice notes might lean Attache Moi 55 towards the fall, I am wearing it in the heat of summer and find it a delight, even more so when hours after applying I am suddenly hit with a luminous, jelly-like osmanthus note that feels like the sun has come out after the rain. This is an incredibly well done and nearly unknown fragrance that is only sold at Barney’s, where I got mine. There’s a bonus to knowing that you are probably the only person in a 100-mile or more radius wearing it, too.
