This is ok. It actually smells like a more flowery Irish Spring soap. Lol. I just got this, so I’ll have to test it a bit more.

Any thoughts on a “reminds me of”?

I remember this perfume in the bathroom closet in my aunt’s house many years ago when I was younger and my nose was not so experienced (I’m not educated into perfume, I mean experienced by a lifetime sniffing habit) Then I found it old-fashioned but interesting, very ladylike and a bit aldehydic. the tuberose was obvious. Now I see the notes list I think that Marigold and orris root gave it a slightly dirty edge to it, barely noticeable not in your face dirty edge.
My aunt had three perfumes: this one, a very old Prince Matchabeli and a French Violetta from Grasse, all sitting there for years and years…
I used to meet her only a few times per year and Always went to the bathroom to check if they were still there.
My aunt loved them but never wore them, because she was a demure woman with a simple and rigorous life. Perfume was more of a private pleasure for her.
At over 80 she felt even more unconfortable wearing perfume in public. I’m sure I will wear perfume all my life! But I live in a different world as she did.
Recently this beloved aunt passed away and it was a shock for me. I miss her a lot, even if just over the phone. When I went there for her funeral the house was so full of people and I could sneak in the bathroom and check the bottles. Somehow it comforted me and I left them there in her house.
I’m sure the bottle was a bit turned off
Now this (once) elegant and ladylike perfume will remind me that house and my aunt who never wore it.

I really love this fragrance and owned a large bottle of it back before the price went through the roof and it was easily attainable at Neiman’s or Saks. This is an ambery/vanilla based floral with top notes of my favorites: Orange Flower & Ylang Ylang, midnotes of gorgeous Jasmine & Rose (didn’t pick up on Tuberose,though) and it’s sexy base of vanilla, Sandalwood & Ambrette. Even though Creed did create a signature scent for Grace when she was still alive, these 2 scents are distinctly different. Creed’s is a more definite FLORAL whereas this tends to lean more towards a Floral/Oriental…at least, that’s what my nose tells me!
