On me, somehow, it lasts easily over 8h. Of course it turns into skin scent at the end, but seeing how it’s mostly linear, the essence of the scent is still on the inside of my elbow after spritzing it on 9h ago. Two sprays, in semi-humid summer east coast weather, on moisturized skin.
The coconut has a bit of that metallic, somewhat plastic feeling like the one in Sunny Side Up by Juliette has a Gun. It begins with a very pleasant sharp citrus fruity top. About 3-4h into wearing, the floral heart opens up a little more, as long as you don’t sniff too closely, it’s a very beautiful sweet floral. The problem is really when I bring it up close to my nose. I’d wear this on a summer day in a sundress, no problems. It might differ on other people’s skin, but because of that weird note, I’d wear this on my legs and let it travel up. The scent, right now as I’m typing, still wafts noticeably about 30cm away from where I sprayed.
Cabotine lasting powers are just astonishing when you think about Dior and Chanel’s pink girly juices fading much faster. I blind bought this for under $20USD because of the Christine Nagel signature and I gotta say I don’t regret it at all. The drydown is going to make your hugs some of the happiest times of a person’s day.

I bought this wonderful perfume because of the pretty bottle, and, I was in for a surprise… I wasn’t taken at the first drops, but than, it developed on my skin, and now we are BFF for ever!

A fruity fresh floral perfume. Its sweetness is barely there. I cannot detect separate notes, just a pleasant cool breeze, that is pretty soon replaced by a more metallic aroma, probably the base notes that I am not very sure my nose entirely agrees with. If you get it on a promotional price,as I have, it is definitely worth a try, the absolutely cute bottle should encourage girls to grip it

I had a sample of Floralie EDT. I will describe the contact with this scent.
Major notes are rose, freesia, lemon, blackcurrant, peach and sea notes at least what i can detect, these notes create a warm, friendly composition.
Average durability, but pleasant. When i smell this from my skin i found associate with almonds. Yes they are not in there but i noticed something like that. Nice perfume, suitable for summer season.

Makes me think wearing it while going out walking in the snow, Its coconutty white bouquet would keep warm, give some bright and energy. And this, when it settles, don’t be fooled by opening freshness. Better outdoor; Cabotine stayla streght and good radiance.

Fragrance Review For Floralie
Cabotine Gres
Top Notes
Lemon Black Currant Freesia
Middle Notes
Rose Lily of the Valley Sea Notes
Base Notes
Peach White Cedar Extract Musk Amyl salicylate
Floralie is a unique aquatic floral scent which surprised me.
Sure it’s cheap but the fragrance is more sophisticated than meets the nose.
I could go on and on about the Cabotine line but I will keep this short and to the point. Like other perfumes in this line, this is a floral fragrance.
Fresh flowers with a citrusy lemon.
It reminds me of old fashioned toilet water in a Victorian home.
Once the citrus notes fade, a light fruit begins to emerge and it’s the grape or currant note but it’s not very strong.
The floral notes arrive before the currant can form more fully. It smells mainly of white lilies and freesia to me with a little bit of rose thrown into the mix.
The dry down stage is woodsy with cedar, but in a very subdued and subtle fashion.
Amyl salicylate is an extremely rare chemical note in perfumery but not in shampoo and body wash. It smells of orchid. With the peach and and cedar wood especially fruit peach mélange it give this scent a shampoo or bath product aura.
It is very enjoyable as an after shower fragrance and easy to wear on an spring or summer day.
Lovely

It is a musky delicate spring rose with a hint of sea water, fresh and flowery in just the right proportion. Perfect for spring or summer, when the weather gets warmer, but you don`t want to reach for the usual `summer` edt-s. And a lot of people will ask what scent are you wearing!

I have loved Gres perfumes ever since I was young. I admit I did buy this more for the bottle than the juice inside. I nearly have the whole bouquet and they look so pretty bunched together on my shelf.
This is a very light sweet tart fragrance, one I like more sprayed on a flowing scarf or shirt when I am out and about in early spring. It brings a lightness to your step and the promise of sunny days ahead.
On my skin this is more floral but on my clothes there is more tart citrus so it is worthwhile spraying this all over to appreciate all the gorgeous layers this perfume has to offer.
It is light and refreshing and hopefully everyone around your will appreciate it and lift their spirits for Spring Days to come.

Got this for 10€ without smelling it first and it´s lovely. A fragance of white flowers and a bit of coconut, lemon and musk. Sweet but not sickenly fruity. It´s a pity the longevity is moderate and sillage is weak but it´s a lovely skin fragance for the hottest days of summer, fresh, clean, uplifting and light and won´t bother people in public transportation. A nice one.

A creamy gourmand coconut like Deseo. I feel tropical in this, not citrusy or floral. OK, it does have grapefruit for just a few minutes, then becomes a French macaroon bakery. All in all it is lovely. It also reminds me of Wrapped With Love without the sickly melon. If Marie Antoinette were alive today, she would love this bottle.

The bottle is so pretty and the scent is delicate!

I love this everyday scent. Smells exactly like kenzo fleur de magnloia , staying power is good. smells white flowers but a bit overbearing to me and with a hint of citrus , dry down is musky .. i also smell coconut which is not even mentioned in the notes !!
Update : well after wearing this for a couple of months I t got too much for me unlike fleur de magnolia which was never too much for me but the coconut note is too loud in a sickening manner .. I still wear this but on occasions and especially when my sinus is inflamed so i wouldn’t mind this loud perfume >>>

I bought this at a special low price yesterday with no tester available and don’t regret my purchase at all. The bottle is so pretty and the scent is delightful; warm, sweet and a bit musky without being sickly or cloying. I’m so happy with my bargain! YAY!

This is an nice, modern, light and warm sweet scent. Well done by Christine Nagel. The only teardrop in my eyes is the lasting power, in my oppinion this could be better. But for this price it is ok.
A fine summer scent with a youthfull spirit. I like it.

Oh, I cant wait..I adore these Cabotine gems. Itching to know when I can get it,I loved all of them, but a woody one is just making my mouth water. Im with WeeGee on this one – a truly fabulous range. The only range I wanted to collect each and everyone of,lol !
palinka – :
oooh I can’t wait~ really looking forward to this one!

Floral woody musk, Christine Nagel AND another gorgeous floral cap?!? It’s a conspiracy I tell you! I think I must be among the world’s most drooling fools for Cabotine flankers. All are lovely and some are truly marvelous. I’ll be anxiously waiting to find this new gem, especially since it marks the first time a flanker cap will be pearlized!
Edit: Today, May 31, 2015 this has FINALLY hit the on-line discounters. Scentedmonkey’s ebay store has 100mls for $21.01 with free shipping. I’m dizzy with anticipation!

Pretty bottle. Looks a bit vintage, but that´s just positive. The notes sounds good too. Will try this when it comes out.
