Absinthe? Broom? Syringe? Yohimbe? What is even going on in the notes?
I strongly prefer this one to the EdP, I don’t find them to be similar at all actually. This is a nice semi-jammy rose with a slightly herby twist, musky, a bit effervescently sweet-and-sour. I have smelled things similar to this before, despite the unique notes, whereas the EdP is truly one of a kind.

I bought this purely and absolutely for the bottle and its box too (like I did the edp!) because I ADORE them!!!!! They’re absolutely gorgeous!! Especially this one’s beautiful pink colour!!!! Feminine!!!
I quite like the perfume too though! It’s quite sensual and exotic, and even mysterious, and I love the slight bitterness, and the lovely pink pepper, and the flowers especially the heliotrope, and tonka and benzoin which I love. It’s very unusual, but very interesting, and quite refined and elegant. It’s still growing on me, and actually, even as I write, I’m quite falling in love with it!! I love the champagne note, and things I don’t know like Dyer’s Greenwood! It’s wonderful! A real treasure box!! I think I love it!

Heidi lynn describes this scent very well. Just adding the projection is as low as the longivity unfortunately :/ pitty. If it was stronger i could really like it, because it s not at all a common pink scent. Mysterious and quit intriguing!

Rykiel Woman is an interesting scent, one that never crossed my radar until gifted it by a fellow Fragrantican.
My first gut reaction to the first spray (that first thought that came unbidden to my mind) was “90’s hairspray!” But, I quickly sniffed my wrist to come away with a more subtle impression. I smell pink pepper, certainly, and could have sworn I also smelled patchouli—but maybe that’s the wormwood or the dyers greenweeed? There is a faintly exotic and antique-y smell; it’s like opening a chest in grandma’s back bedroom to be surprised by the faded finery inside. It’s a dry, herbal smell—not too pungent, not spicy, a bit bitter, and quite powdery.
Of all things (and despite the pink bottle!), I’m getting such mixed messages….this is a woman with champagne in her hand and roses in the back yard….but also a woman with wormwood, broom and greenweed drying in the rafters….a quiet woman, mysterious and maybe misunderstood….maybe even called a witch….
Yes, to me this is a witchy smell. Dry and cool, herbal with a hint of roses, bitter with a touch of sweet. Sillage is low on me, longevity 3-4 hours.

it’s simple, not unique but i like the scent very much – it’s light but sensous. Anyway longevity is not very good – lasts only few hours on me.

It doesn’t last on my skin at all, almost nothing. I have tested it in summer. Weak and quite boring (especially if compared with EDP version), no spices I was looking for. In my opinion a category of oriental spicy is misleading. It could easily be oriental floral.
