Champ de Baies is a rather straightforward red berries solinote fragrance on me.
When sprayed on skin, the fruity sweetness of blackberry and raspberry immediately takes charge. Unfortunately, none of the earthy green tartness of rhubarb or any other vegetal elements come through. Maybe it’s because of the eau de cologne concentration, or the lack of a prominent caramel note, the fruity sweetness of red berries thankfully doesn’t feel too saccharine. However, Champ de Baies is still pretty monotonous throughout its wear.
A clean patchouli pops up here and there with time, but it’s mainly a meek cedar-white musk raft that the red berries latch on in the dry down. Champ de Baies now essentially smells like the dry down of the 2006 Nina by Nina Ricci on my skin, albeit slightly more refined and less sweet.
The longevity of Champ de Baies is around 6-7 hours on me, and it stays rather close to skin for the most time.
While the first two instalments of L’Artisan’s Cologne series seemingly aim at reinventing eau de cologne, Champ de Baies no longer adheres to the structure, but is more like a diluted version of a conventional sweet red berries-clean musk fragrance. It’s surely a pretty perfume, but not necessarily remarkable among the crowded fruity floral genre. I’d recommend it to those who enjoy the dry down of Nina Ricci Nina, but find the first few hours too sweet and have more budget.

This one is really nice, it’s this nice fresh summery berry type of scent that is not overly sweet. Pity it ony exists in the cologne form, because it evaporates right away.
And it’s a shame, because the smell is so pleasant and happy, and the whole composition would be great in a more concentrated form. Couldn’t bring myself to pay their price tag for something that would stay with me for an hour max. and then puff – gone. And not that you can carry a 100 ml bottle with you all day to add some, if needed.
