It’s a cocoony tribute to white flowers with an intriguing edible aspect.Sophisticated and serene.

Its like the essence of the white flower goodness of vintage fumes that I just love. But strikingly it does not hook me. Best to layer it with a note that stands out (April 2018) no complaints. Its good, just not memorable.

Well, this is my 2nd Jeanne Arthes frag, and there is a definite vintage scent and feel and look to them. I am not seeing a release year for this, but I am guessing, like his/her/their other frag’s, this was released in the new millennium, which I find all the more charming, as they seem to have that vintage look, smell, and vibe about them (I googled to find out more about Jeanne Arthes, and unless I dig around a little more, at quick glance, there is not much info as to “who” Jeanne Arthes might be..can anyone enlighten…? just curious!! 🙂 ).
This is soft, and as with my other lone/sole experience with another Jeanne Arthes frag, nothing here is screeching. Just soft, feminine, and lovely. But definitely picking up the tuberose and white floral (I have always loved white florals, so I guess it is no surprise that I actually like this..). The cinnamon, sandalwood, ginger and coriander all lend a soft warmth. Not picking up the amber, I think the other notes are what is giving this the subtle warmth for me. Can detect the peach a weeeee bit, and the oak a wee bit. The vanilla lends a bare touch of sweetness, but by no means a sugar-bomb. Very subtle. The rose note seems totally lost on me. The violet is as subtle as subtle can be here for me. The other fruits are also subtle/almost non-existent.
All in all a pleasant surprise. Great, soft, relaxing, comforting scent.
UPDATE (07/08/2018): Tried this one again and it still has a vintage scent, but there is a sweetness now that I am picking up that I hadn’t before. A little too cloyingly sweet for me. Oh and nothing to me like Poeme. To each their own!! 🙂

So i have heard this one is discontinued ?
while i am lucky enough to have a full unwrapped one
great bottle and sillage
the arum here is fantastic
powerdery and sweet
but i don;t think the note here is correct
i hate vanilla so much
but i am sure there is no vanilla in this scent
while tuberose and jasmine and arum lily is very noticable
it is worth a try
great sillage and longivity
nice work!

Meeldiv üllatus supermarketi riiulilt! 🙂
Kokteil, mille koostisosadeks on JPG Classique ja Lancome Poeme. Valged lilled, vanilje, ilang-ilang ja küpsed tumedad ploomid. Idamaiselt magus, aga heas tasakaalus klassikaline lõhn. Püsib suurepäraselt.

Very strong vanilla with a floral background. Too much vanilla for me, making this somewhat one dimensional.
I love Jeanne Arthes but this one doesn’t work for me.
I should have guessed because I cannot tolerate JPG either and this is similar.
kastrov86 – :
What a nice scent… and the price!!!!! I don’t really know much about Poeme, but it has some similarities with JPG Classic. Lovely!

Gorgeous and vintage smelling. This is the kind of scent I have been looking for in the last period. The tuberose and lily are quite dominant in this fragrance. It is mature smelling, very elegant, ladylike and a bit sweet as well.
I found my 30ml bottle at my local Rossmann for 3 Euros, a ridicolous price for such a glamorous perfume! I won’t really care if it’s too mature smelling for me, since I am still a teenager and I won’t even care if someone will think I smell like a granny just because this isn’t the usual fruity/musky scent that everybody is wearing now.

I got this hoping its like shafali fleur rare as the review below says. At first spritz to me its exactly like jpg classiqe. Unmistakably so. It dries down to a nice smoky lillie similar to wigdan by al rehab. Its a nice strong perfume too. I paid £5.90 for 30ml from ebay but it was shipped from Bulgaria so I waited 2 weeks. Im not disappointed at all in this perfume even if it doesn’t really remind me of shafali fleur rare, its still lovely

This is such a happy, good mood fragrance! I recently received this and the moment I first spritzed it on my wrist I realized that it is the perfume-clone of the super lovely, now-discontinued, Yves Rocher Shafali Fleur Rare perfume that I had and loved 15+ years ago. My scent memory is usually spot-on and I really can’t tell any difference between the two scents. I’m so happy! I always loved Shafali and was heartbroken when it was discontinued. On the initial spritz, a floral bomb (of the best kind) -lovely, springy, lush, heady, so rich it almost makes me dizzy (in a good way!) – of yellow florals takes possession of my senses and I’m lost in my personal secret garden. I’m surrounded by these lush blooms – especially lily. I’ve always loved lilies, especially since my husband gave me my first plant after we got married and it was a lily. This delicious fragrance has better sillage on my skin than most do, and it is pretty potent juice, so I would recommend applying with a light hand, especially if you’re going to be in an office or other small setting. The longevity is also better than most. I think a spray in the morning would be good for the whole work day…and only one more spritz would be necessary in the early evening if you wanted to continue to enjoy it throughout your evening. The thing I really love, too, is that this doesn’t smell too sweet, or very synthetic, at least on my skin. It really smells as if I am in a field of yellow flowers in their prime. Enjoy!

I got this as a Christmas present yesterday. I didn’t know what kind of perfume it would be, so I got rid of any expectations. Basically, bunch of white flowers, detected at first sniff. Minutes later appeared the plum.. and peach probably. Overall, it’s a soapy-fresh-powdery fragrance. I have no idea how some of the ingredients smell like, that add up such ”clean” feeling to it. Finally the drydown feels sweeter and delicate. It can grow on me eventually, for now i just like it 🙂
buzodopx – :
It smells like lilies, and very little else on me. Cheap enough to slosh about – if you like lilies of course! It opened with lilies and a powdery smell that reminded me of nice shower gel. I quite like this. It’s pleasant. Nice that I have a bottle.

Sorry that I can’t say much more about this..I’m not a great note detector but it does smell rather floral and not really sweet. I mostly smell lily and jasmine, little to no vanilla on me. I also smell little hints of plum and peach once in a while..they kind of come and go. Most importantly, though I think it is a very beautiful and classy fragrance, smells far more expensive than it is. I can imagine myself growing very fond of it.
Thanks to ailishlu’s Jeanne Arthes giveaway I came across this affordable beauty 🙂

I´m not familiar with poeme but agree it´s very similar to classique, but lighter. Good option for the price.
vanya_verhniy – :
In Russia where I’m from this aroma is extremely cheap, but it’s none the worse for wear, especially when you want something picturesque, sweet and mature. I agree with the statements that it’s quite similar to Poeme.

I can’t stand Jean Paul Gaultier classique, it’s too strong for me and gives me headaches. Arome, similar to JPG, is lighter and fresher. I love the the top notes, fruity but not too sweet, and then it becomes spicy and ends up powdery and sweet and comforting. It doesn’t last though, it’s probably just me, even expensive perfumes do not last on my skin. Here in France Jeanne Arthes fragrances are just unbelievably inexpensive and can be found in supermarkets. For stay-home- moms like me, it’s very good for the budget;-)
BladlyIdeva – :
here in Buchares-Romania is availabe in supermarket in very cheap ;-)) 4-5 euro
tula.71rus – :
Totally agree with Yrma, it smells pretty much like JPG Classique, edt but not edp.
It has a great sillage and very long lasting.
manjeroking – :
Made a mistake and bought this.
A superficial and chemical imitation.
Smelled the real Poeme with its luminous floral heart, Arome Arthes just doesn’t compare.
No more cheap perfume shortcuts for me!
warendkor – :
Poeme meets JPGaultier. I have the deo spray, it is efficient and really wonderful smelling at around 3 euros!
stasello – :
I agree with Fujikutza, it’s a good and budgetary copy of Lancome’s Poeme.
disa0071 – :
It’s like Poeme only with less demage on my wallet.
