I don’t like this classic version, too much aldehydes. Better try newest modern creations – ‘gold’ version and best in range ‘sweet romance’. Gems.

I remember this classic frag as elegant, mature-floral, yet pretty enough to be worn by younger generation. I just got a new bottle and I can’t help to feel like I just had a bath fuelled with vintage soap, the fragrant kind of soap that my mum used to put in the linen cabinet. I still get the Lily of the Valley and Jasmine, very little rose to my nose; the lathery aldehydes though are on top, behind and beneath everything else. I would like them to compliment the delicate florals, not cover them up with soapy foam. The frag is not unpleasant, it gives that ‘fresh from the shower’ feeling that lasts and lasts, and some may find that very appealing. For me personally it has lost its charm that I remember from when I was really young. Still, I will wear it for a long day in the office or a longer car jurney to keep feeling fresh.

Hard to find, imported from Poland, New 30 ml, Starts good, but lasts for 5 min, Gold version is much longer lasting and pleasant.

What I adore most about this intensive fragrance is the effervescent, sparkling aldehydes! They spritz on your skin carrying along the jasmine in such a way that is just effusive. After a few minutes, the aldehydes settle just a bit and bring forth a soapy clean breath of fresh florals. I can’t detect, individually, the LOTV or the rose elements, but I can sense that they are there. The magic is in the blending and the aldehydes not making any excuses for its’ leading role. I adore this memorable, indeed, remarkable fragrance! It is simply divine in its’ complex simplicity.
Sillage is heavy, because I love it and spray a lot!
Longevity I find to be long lasting.

Just smelled it again today, it killed me one more time… And I went to the store with such a positive attitude! Maybe not positive enough… Respect to those ladies on whose skin it smells elegant though.

It is just not good fragrance.
This is shortest I can say about it.
ps. They do another fragrances called “Byc moze”/Maybe or so/ but they were only popular years ago, because there were times they couldn’t buy any fragrances at all, and it was popular in Russia, but they smell cheap-all versions of this fragrance.

When I was a child a friend of my mother had it – very ellegant woman, the smell was fantastic for me. When I was in her home (not very proud to say this) I used to go to their bedroom and sprayed generously of this magic liquid. Very curious what my opinion would be now…

one friend one day gave me a present – for my perfumes collection – this especially elegant small bottle in color of lapis-lazuli. “Pani Walewska” perfume’s composition is sharp,delicated, refined and is certainly timeless

Oh yes, my lovely Grandmother loves it. I’m half polish, and I’ve spent most of my childhood in Poland, so I always remembered this bottle on my Granny’s cabinet.
She uses also cream and it seems like it’s her signature fragrance, because no matter what you will buy for her, she always requests Pani Walewska for Christmas.
Yes, it is dusty and soapy, but has this feminine – vamp bling.
I’m waiting for more polish perfumes here:)

There is also red version. When I am back in Eastern Europe I will test them again. And Byc’ mozhe were wonderful tender perfume-with some what I would call Chypre notes-may be wrong, don’t judge me. I loved Byc’ moze, and you can still buy reformulations now for ridiculous cheap price, and there are flankers too, such as Byc’ Moze Paris, London and Tokyo etc. Don’t know why pani Walewska though seemed so heavy for me, if I do like other strong scents out of that era.

this one and other polish perfume “Byc mozhe (original)” were actually very popular in USSR. I remember my mom had both and i liked them. This is simple yet beautiful scent: soapy rose with LOTV accords. Might smell outdated to someone, but to me personally there are so many memories attahed to this scent that i would repurchase it simply for nostalgic reason. Don´t know about the recent version, but the old one was really good on terms of sillage and lasting power.
P.S. It comes as a 30ml parfum spray nowdays and also has a full line of creams and body products (including even a hand cream) named after the iconic fragrance itself. Doesn´t cost much at all.

So I have the honour to be the first to review this classic, that was only added now. What can I say, I have heard a lot about this iconic perfume many women wore in my country. Pani (Madam)Walewska,charismatic polish countess, known to break hearts of many famous men, including Napoleon…I have finally bought this last century looking lovely bottle of orignal-blue-Pani Walewska. It turned out to be so very different from what i expected-a blind purchase of course. It’s one of not many perfumes I had to give away to someone who now appreciates it. Powdery, iris, moss, flowers but so dusty…soapy…Maybe I am not familiar with this time and fashion and type of fragrances. It was wearing me, sillage is strong, stays close to body but oh so long. I am waiting to see other reviews of those who like this perfume, as I know of a few dignified women who used to admire it.
