I imagine a dirty blond with beautiful freckles in a white dress walking along the California coastline barefoot without a care in the world everytime I smell this.Now I’m very opened minded when it comes to fragrance & I wear many so called “feminine” fragrances,but I can’t get myself to wear this out in public.Either way I will always have a bottle in my collection since I adore the scent & guess this will be one I enjoy in private(sigh).

Vanilla, amber, cotton, and lennon fabrics.
Amber is the major note mingled with magnolia, cashmere, lilies, and woods. It’s most likely milky and i think tuberose is there!
White floral milky blend in general. fair.

Ok this is the official blurb –
A creation from nose Pascal Gaurin, Made In Heaven is a wonderfully understated and luxurious scent, making use of a number of fine ingredients to produce a rapturous final effect. In the top, lemony magnolia petals are met with prize Italian mandarin for a sumptuous citrus accord, lent a delicate spice from saffron, the most opulent of spices. Mandarin transforms itself subtly into Tunisian orange flower as the scent moves into its heart notes, whereupon we are met with the delicate and beguiling aroma of creamy Indian tuberose, shot through with a bright bolt of purest jasmine sambac. As the base reveals itself, beautiful notes of sumptuous vanilla bean begin to come through, drawing you ever closer with their addictive quality. Accords of cereal pair perfectly with the creamy vanilla, with a bitter note of orris root lending complexity to the dry down for a wonderfully elegant, sophisticated fragrance.
What do I get? Well I concur. It is indeed a powerful spicey/floral that is bordering on a full blown gourmand. There is briefly a very edible moment when the cereal appears early on but thankfully it is quickly but a shadow for the rest of the scents timeline. The other notes smother it to some degree.
Trying to detect notes in this intense floral spice bomb is difficult. I do manage to pick out the lemon and orange elements and lots of jasmine but they are pretty swamped with the spices.
If you try this then don’t freak out immediately. Patience. The dry down is a unique floral, moist spice cake and worth waiting for. I think I was hoping Neela Vermeire scents would be like this. The smells of India are pretty much always strong and intense.
I think it’s unisex. Although a little sweet it is just the right amount not to scare the fellas off.
Very good longevity and sillage. This is definitely a scent for chilly days when you want something to warm you up.

This is powerful! Reminds me of Arabic perfume formulations in its insistence to announce its presence. The Orange essence, like the sharp oil in a blood orange peel is strong, with some slightly medicinal woody essence that anchors sweet amber and slightly tuberose notes. No clarity on the notes to be honest as they all meld to the resinous Orangeyness. Dark orange. Application has to be done with sensible caution to not knock folk out.
Definitely unisex to me. Could induce headaches due to that heavy heady base. Night time Summer party party on the beach perfume. Not experienced the dry down yet. Currently swimming in a heavenly haze of meditative Orange.

I really don’t know what is going on, I don’t like to much smell of tuberose or any other white flower but I love this perfume.
I smell most white flowers and something comfortant and hmm sexy…
stel_jest – :
Love how orange this smells
The smell of cereal combines with it and its like nothing i have ever smelt before.
This is quite sweet and mostly floral, I definitely smell a hint of saffron too.
I thinks its a fun and feminine scent.
Notes: Safran, magnolia petals, Italian mandarin, jasmine sambac, tuberose, orange flower, cereal accord, orris, natural vanilla bean.

Whoa. Epic sillage and longevity. I could smell it for DAYS on my pillows and clothes. This is a super sweet cheerios-in-milk scent with orange and tuberose. Sometimes its nauseating with its sweetness. Overpowering, but intriguing nonetheless. I wish there was a lighter version because I would totally buy a FB.

Orange blossom and Cap’n Crunch. Definitely caught my nose in the shop, enough to take home a sample but after a full wearing decided it made me queasy. Probably one of the lines more intense scents. I enjoyed testing it: the cereal accord is toasty and very edible smelling. It’s fun and unique and unexpected in the way that maybe Amouage Interlude Woman is with its Jolly Rancher accord, but I couldn’t wear that one beyond a half hour either.
denya4a – :
Very warm and feminem, i wore on my date with my bf and women were asking me what i wear I smell nice hahah:)
peredoz – :
I was honestly afraid to try this. When I popped open the sample I got a nuclear blast of grape soda white floral. Thinking that this was going to be like a super strong Britney spears raidance I dabbed with caution.
As it moved to the dry down I got the odd dry cereal accord and maybe the saffron started showing up more? A strange dry cereal funk.
What an odd thing to see all the negative reviews on here, I thought I’d be the only one to not like it. I thought musc maori had a similar funk but smelled 10 times worse!
Ultimately, I don’t care for this, but it wasn’t as scary as I thought it’d be.

There’s something muddy and a bit dusty/stale about this concoction as it dried down. Just out of the vial it was very strong, sweet and with pronounced floral/caramel notes. Within 5 minutes it went to stronger wheat paste and industrial cleaning fluid. Strong and off-putting. So glad I sampled first. I think on someone with the right chemistry it could be stunning, but I wouldn’t blind buy this one.
Update: I tried it again…in a micro-dose. I just touched the sample vial stopper to my skin, and at this low volume it’s rather pleasant on this cool, breezy and rainy day.
I think dialing down the monster sillage really helps to fade Made in Heaven’s seemingly rough edges to the background. Now it’s easier to sit next to.
This scent reminds me of fresh white flowers in a library study, and its mood is rather nostalgic, charming and calming. Glad I kept my sample.

Looks like this fragrance should be getting the equivalent of a Razzie!! My story about Made in Heaven is this…
I was looking for a fragrance to get my husband for Christmas last year. I ordered some samples, left them on our dresser, and told him to try a few and let me know his thoughts. I had ordered the Made in Heaven sample for myself, but he ended up putting it on. He came home from work that day and said he really enjoyed smelling himself that day. It had seemed kindof feminine to me, so just to be sure, I told him to wear it again. He had the same positive reaction. I thought it smelled OK too, not my favorite, but he seemed to like it so much I went ahead and bought it for him. The first time he sprayed it on I thought “Oh no, what have I done??” It was SO strong, cloying, this huge screaming BIG WHITE FLORAL over Fruit Loops. This, from a man who detests every single big white floral I’ve sampled. WHAT?? Does his nose work?? Does mine?? Maybe not. I asked him why he hasn’t been wearing it recently and he said someone walked into his office and asked if there was a candle burning.
Point of my rambling story is, I think this is really not bad when used in moderation. Dabbing and spraying does make a big difference to my nose. The cereal accord is actually quite comforting to me, but I’m just not sure the rest of the statement (a LOUD one) this fragrance makes is my cup of tea.

This smells like sour milk to me with some flowers on top. Reminds me of messy children after breakfast on Saturday morn. No people No.

I can’t believe this scent has so many negative reviews when all I get when I smell it is mouth-watering dessert. If I shut my eyes and try really hard, I think I can smell tuberose, but the notes are blended so well I just smell straight up gourmand. And I love gourmands, as long as they smell adult enough (as in, not like Pink Sugar). I definitely smell butter and something sweeter than caramel if possible. That must be the cereal accord. This is a comforting scent and it’s in my top 20 list of favorites.

The description said there’s so much precious ingredients, but in the end, it’s Vera Wong’s Love struck. Hideous.
урий – :
Must love magnolia, orange blossom and tuberose to wear this, and then please use only one spray because it will clear the room if you use more than that. I’ve yet to be impressed with the Lab on Fire line and this one hasn’t changed my mind about it. Suddenly my Truth or Dare smells better and better to me compared to this hot mess. Definitely a sample first kind of scent!
dorowar – :
I don’t know about that one, there is a note in it that is too much, like tubérose mixed with the saffron!? The scent is foody, not in a good way for me…like an oriental food vibe..
So not impressed, the Lab on Fire has done better, this isn’t outstanding, it is a buttery floral scent. Just smells off to my nose. It reminded me of a lighter version of Lutens, Un bois farine, in the foody vibe.
dvv75 – :
Sweet, powdery, musky-musty white floral. This thing makes me nauseous.
ilya35 – :
Horrible. Absolutely terrible. Super sweet candied floral notes (tuberose? jasmine?), screechingly synthetic in smell and texture, and set to an obnoxious, headache-inducing volume. Honestly, this smells like it should be a body lotion with Honey Booboo’s face on the bottle. Juvenile, tacky, and extremely loud, even with a terrible cold this is cutting straight through the room and annoying the hell out of me. The worst thing I’ve smelled all year. Steer clear.
pino – :
I don’ t know why, but this one on me stinks (i would describe this something like an urinal “note”).
A big disappointment…

The notes from the A Lab on Fire website:
Notes:
Top~ safran, magnolia petals LMR, Italian mandarin
Mid~ jasmine sambac abs LMR, tuberose abs India LMR, orange flower abs Tunisia LMR
Dry~ “cereal accord,” orris abs LMR, natural vanilla bean CO2 extract LMR
Style: carnal, innocent
I guess it makes sense that I wouldn’t care for this much. It’s okay, but something about white flowers makes me a little queasy.

I feel very daring to comment this perfume without any notes listed and being a complete amateur in the world of perfumes..
I’ve received the sample of Made in Heaven as a part of LuckyScent Fall 2014 Sample Pack so I had no expectations towards it.
For me Made in Heaven is a pure violet, maybe with a smallish hint of caramel. I may detect a resiny, vanilly undertone, hidden under the powerful waves of violet blossoms after several hours of wearing.
Sillage and longevity are impressive, unfortunately, I’m not a fan of violet and that’s what this scent is all about.
