I love this scent. It’s really stunning. It’s Floral & woodsy, Creamy & Cozy, with a hint of sweetness. Lotus is always a winner on my skin. The Cardamom gives it the perfect touch of spice. The orris & Tonka just wow. Very interesting & never boring!!
Doesn’t remind me of anything I own.

I love Japanese fragrances and Femme reminds me that special touch – sits close to skin, very natural but very significant, even bottle is nested upside down in a box)
Spicy and nicely softened by apricot, rhubarb creates special twist like yuzu or guaiac tree in some other fragrances. So it has this sweet-woody-exotic factor.
Cassis – is that I smell at most from the beginning, – ambery cassis, then cardamom settles down nicely with lotus, and musk – with tonka and orris root.
Those who were in love with Issey Miyake Feu d’Issey – heads up. It doesn’t have creamy-milky base but this “red cube” is the very closest relative of Miyake’s “red orb”
Longevity is not his strong side though

The colour of the bottle fits the perfume well – it is a warm but equally fresh fragrance, with hints of the juicy but very sour rhubarb combined with peaches. The cassia note on top gives it a well wised twist in the direction of an optimistic perfume.
Afterwards it settles in a rich musk note – warm, close to the wearer, subtle but not boring.
I for myself can’t stand musk in all its wholesome note, so this is in the end not for me.
Apart from that it is a well done perfume for someone who doesn’t care for florals and who wants a kind of different perfume…
Which bothers me a bit is the design of the “cap” – this big half zylinder is (sorry) nasty and should not have been produced at all!

Finally!! Prive has arrived on this site. Thank you Fragrantica!
This baby was on my birthday wish list a decade ago, strange how I asked for it without even testing it. It was a good shot then. I‘m so glad me and Prive have found each other 🙂 I’m constantly repurchasing this frag, it is an absolute heart-winner♥, giving me that sexy confident feeling as it stays close to me as a secret 😉 It’s quite unusual, a bit ‘alcoholic‘ at the beginning and has something you may be not falling in love with instantly. You may even call it a ‘weak‘ scent. I know this from somebody who tried Prive on their wrists. On me, it is longlasting, cosy, sweet and warm, could be quite heavy if I want it, yet ‘heaviness’ wouldn‘t offend anyone. Prive is surely not ‘light‘ or ‘girlish‘. I love it on a cold day.
