This one smells like musk (of course), sweet powder, vanilla, and a hint of almond. There has to be a baked good somewhere that smells like this. It’s quite nice.

What’s in it: Ylang, Tuberose and Jasmin; citrus and then sandalwood and musk in the drydown. Overall pretty and linear. Very creamy and gentle, it’s well mixed and easy to wear. If you like the above ingredients I would recommend a sniff. Completely office safe.
So far all of the scents I’ve sampled from Sylvaine Delacourte’s collection are very natural, with average longevity and low projection. This one is nice but it’s also something that I feel I’ve smelled before. I like others better in the two discovery sample sets I’m currently making my way through, but by all means check this out if you are inclined, scent is so subjective.

Yes…it’s kind of masterpiece. For a special type of skin:) there are people who cannot smell it and just say , it’s your skin what we feel…nice smell but I don’t feel perfume…and there are people who would say: omg.. you smell gorgeous ..
It’s something between baby smell and hot attractive woman..sounds weird, but that’s i:)) I consider it very natural a bit sweeet and elegant smell…not too offensive …skin scent…very well blended…I love it 🙂
But just have it just 2nd day..let’s see what will happen in winter;)

I’ve just ordered two more sample packs to give all of these more tries. I REALLY like all of them and love at least two, this being one of them. The collection seemed pretty straight forward, but my first sample set confused me more than consoled me.
This one really depends on so many different things, from time of day to the weather. I think this can be worn easily at anything 25° centigrade or less. It’s a bit heavy and very musky (as one would expect) the tuberose and gardenia make this a strong, creamy white floral scent that can be overwhelming. It can also be a little bit indolic which isn’t always enjoyable. Waxy at times, creamy most of the time and powdery all the way through.
Lovely. Will I buy a bottle? Possibly.

Lilylang by Sylvaine Delacourt is a nice and pleasant floral, and basically that’s all I have to say about it. I don’t know if it’s just my skin, but this scent does not develop at all. I can only smell some citric notes, ylang ylang and pink pepper.
Having now tested all five fragrances from SD’s musk collection, the only one that really works for me is Dovana. That’s the only one where I can actually smell musk and the only one that lasts more than a couple of hours on my skin. I also love Helicriss, with that curried immortelle, but my skin gobbles it right up. It is very possible that I am anosmic to some of those musky components that Sylvaine has put in her creations; this has also happened to me with several musky fragrances released by JHAG, Chanel and Narcisso Rodriguez.

I would never ever normally go for something with ‘yellow flowers’ at the top pf the fragrantica description, but having got all the collection samples i have to say there is nothing overtly headache inducing floral in them or indeed any dirty musks.
Ive worn lilylang today and found it close to skin wearing – none of these are loud in your face perfumes- and very waftingly beautiful. Powerdery and i have to say rather like Florntina i think, and maybe Smeraldo. So maybe they all get similar in t(s dry down?? Im about to receive the larger collection spray lot to try before pulling the trigger on a full bottle. I think i want a bit more sillage that they maybe give, though maybe im being stingy because im spraying from a sample….. we’ll see. Anyway, its adorable! And i am someone who doesnt do massive florals, likes usually spicy orientals, gourmands, citrus and many guys’ scents. So make of that what you will. It is a beautiful soft easy wearing musky scent. Love.

The best of the collection.

This one is quite amazing… the tuberose and sandalwood create such creamy and beautiful scent, with bergamot & lemon as the sour counterpart. Like a beautiful, fluffy meringue desert. Completely, astoundingly beautiful.
Sylvaine has created a masterpiece that I’ll be buying.
armyn_777 – :
This smells positively edible on my skin, just like a sweet lemon meringue pastry. A great pick me up fragrance but I actually just want to go to a bakery now and eat all the sweet things so for that reason I won’t be buying it!
А_Ершов – :
I have the small sample box of slylvaine’s LA COLLECTION MUSCS.
This is overtly sweet scent….not my thing at all on most occaisions.
I would not wear this out of the house…..bedtime only.
Once I’ve used the sample Ishan’t cry… not FB worthy.

Musky tuberose citrus blend. I keep on sniffing ylang with hints of tuberose and a bit of citrus that got along. Powdery and musky somehow (delicate soapy musk).
This is quite sensual and very close to skin. This brand creates bed intimacy fragrances.
vamdam – :
A very lovely creation. The musk and ylang very evident on the opening. Ylang can be a very sharp and overbearing note but its used with a very light hand. The musk is light creamy musk. The jasmine and tuberose now come more to the fore but again they are used with a light hand. I like the way orange has been used to sweeten the pot.
I cant say it develops that much but it does seem to get a little sweeter and the pepper becomes more evident.
It is very feminine, soft and yes, you can smell Guerlain. It smells expensive.
I wish it had decent sillage and lasted much longer than a couple of hours max.

This frag is a masterpiece.
Like all of Delacourte’s creations, it opens very softly, with no aggressive alcohol evap, on the citrus and tuberose top notes already mixed with white muscs and jasmine. The tuberose is lovely and less dominant than the one of Vuitton’s Turbulences or Malle/Ropion’s Carnal Flowers, somewhat covered by the jasmine, the soft muscs and the upcoming and fantastic Ylang Ylang which stays and stays and stays, moving progressively to a skin scent.
As a man, I specially like the sensual game between the slowly vanishing soft (male) muscs and the rising (female) floral scents of this outstanding Ylang Ylang, recalling the scenario of a long loving St Valentin’s night.
All in all, this is a very ambitious fragrance only very few houses can address, and here Sylvaine Delacourte clearly demonstrates her virtuosity !

Ok since I’m the first one here, the notes officially listed on SD’s website are:
Bergamot
Tuberose
Mandarin
Jasmine
Musk
Lime (limette)
Ylang Ylang
Pink peppercorns
Lime (citron vert)
Creamy wonderland of a fragrance! Soft, billowy creaminess that is extremely gentle and romantic. Musk, jasmine and tuberose are on their best behaviour. They have a tendency to act up obnoxiously. Not here under the expert hands of SD. Gorgeous ylang ylang coming through. Incredibly tender. I’ll wear this with pearls and white chiffon.
