The notes are not listed above, but are as follows: orange blossom, lime, bergamot, hyacinth and lemon.
Hmmm… Not sure how I feel about this one yet, as I just sprayed it, but it’s definitely not a love. This is citrus on steroids, with dewy white floral, best suited for the spring season in my opinion. It vaguely reminds me of my memory of Aqua Allegoria Nerolia Bianca Guerlain, only more “in your face”. It’s squeaky lemony clean and on the mature side. This was a blind buy and I’m thinking it’s not a winner for me. It is clearly good quality juice so I’ll give it a few other tries before I make up my mind, but not in the near future. Maybe next spring… or in another decade…

Oh Lord, NO! Don’t tell me they have reformulated my beautiful, unique Private Collection!
I am devastated to learn this.
There is about one inch left in my bottle that I bought in 2009. I guess I should savor it and use it only when I NEED to smell its beauty on me .
I have adored this fragrance since the early 1970’s.

I bought this thinking I was buying the original Private Collection pure fragrance spray. I still love this particular fragrance. It has the green note and a touch of citrus in an airier, lighter style to the pure fragrance spray. It reminds me of playing in the garden after a thunderstorm as a child, with citrus trees surrounding.
The dry down and cedar note reminds me in atmosphere of a 1970’s erotic film set in a Japanese bath house and the incense burning within. Mysterious and sensual.
It radiates both innocence and eroticism. This feeling is more pronounced in the pure fragrance spray.
Both are lovely fragrances in their own ways. I recommend trying both, and seeing what suits your particular mood and taste.
My signature scent.

Private Collection is discontiued in USA…

I didn’t love this as it doesn’t really have the beautifully deep green resinous notes of the original. This is a white and yellow dewy floral blend that reminded me of scents like Molinard de Molinard.
