Description
In autumn 2012 House of Sillage presents limited editions Emerald Reign, limited edition Nouez Moi, limited edition Holiday by House of Sillage and the Signature Collection which also includes Cherry Garden, Love is in the Air and Benevolence.
All fragrances are made by acclaimed noses from France, and they are all different—gourmand, fresh, floral—and all very wearable. The number of bottles for each of the six fragrances is very limited, but they will always be available in refill bottles, which are less expensive and still very attractive.
“Elysian fields of cherry blossoms whisper childhood secrets, sweet hues of almond and vanilla flow in the breeze. Sunrays kiss soft skin touched with a fragrance to refresh the wonder hidden within.” Cherry Garden is a scent of blooming cherries and vanilla. It contains notes of bergamot, cherry blossom, almond, sandalwood, vanilla and white musk. The nose behind this fragrance is Mark Buxton.

I put this on this morning before work and after a few hours couldn’t smell it at all. I reapplied after work. As soon as my daughter got in the car with me she asked my why the car smelled like baby wipes. Definitely on the NO list.

Well, my beautiful bottle from House of Sillage couldn’t hold my heart with its fragrance within. It appears that most people think it is a spring/summer fragrance, but I just tested it again – YACK. However, it could just be my having issues with almond recently, and the fact that cherry doesn’t come through at all for me. So sad nonetheless….

Eh. Not what I expected. Glad I only had a sample. Didn’t last in cooler weather. Will try again in warmer weather. Might change my opinion.

I think it’s safe to say that most people who either blind bought or blind sampled House Of Sillage was lured by the bottle. No doubt, the presentation alone is worth the clamor. I must admit…after trying cherry garden, i don’t remember being this disappointed since finding out that the Brontosaurus was a fake. Does it smell gourmand? Eh..kinda. Almond and musk are the predominate scene stealer here. What disturbs me most is that Cherry Garden smells like some sort of Bath and Body Works concoction a la Amber Romance. This stuff is too expensive to smell so cheap. Before you channel your inner Dennis Leary and throw darts, i suggest you to check this fragrance out for yourself. On another note: I did manage to get a really good compliment.

this is a deliciously crafted soft gourmand with a hint of cherry blossom floral tones. it is mostly sweet almonds and a wonderful vanilla. i used the whole sample and decided to buy a bottle. i also tried “love is in the air” and felt a need to purchase it as well. the sweet scents in the house of silage smell really amazing to me, and my husband likes them too. not to mention the bottle- which is very sturdy/heavy and has too many crystals to count. the stunning packaging is different from scent to scent.
this bottle is pink with gold lid with white crystals, whereas “love is in the air” has blue and silver lid coloring with white crystals. i would suggest a sample for an almond vanilla fan- especially if you like a bit of floral undertones.
good luck!
