oh wow you know the first time I smelled la fille de berlin I was like, waittt I've smelled this before! then I remember it was BVLGARI rose essentielle like really really the opening is 99.9% the same, and funnily enough, LFDB has honey dry down and I had two signature scent one decade ago and that was BVLGARI rose essentielle and chloe EDP. I'm floored. it's really like going back to the past for me. I just think la fille de berlin is like the other side of BVLGARI rose essentielle, very similar opening and then it becomes darker and sweeter. I love both! I really like layering la fi de berlin with l'orpheline by the way, it tones down the cloying honey dry down. If there's one thing I dont like about LFDB, it's the honey.
I don't usually like rose perfumes and also not keen of "solid floor" perfumes (i am a frag collector) HOWEVER i love this one soooo much! I just bought it. It wears beautifully. Very classy, perfect office wear. Its more mature scent and it makes me feel like a classy woman. I usually wear deeper, more unisex scents, this one is a rare exception. Masterpiece in my view.
Hi, Annie ❤ Again, I'm early! This was fascinating to me, you are excellent at describing fragrances so I get a real sense of them. I'd like to test this one as it sounds intriguing. Somedays I like "complex" multi-layered scents, somedays "simple" ones. Yesterday my Diva & Fidji arrived. For an EDT Fidji lasted ages! With a Lancome purchase I received a sample of La Nuit Tresor - it's nice but I prefer my regular Tresor. I also bought Clarins Eau des Jardins (I love their Eau Dynamisante bath products). It's a bit "masculine" for my taste but it's okay. Sorry I'm running late answering your comments on other videos, I'm still catching up on things! Sending love & best wishes ❤💐
Thank you, Susan! You're right, it's good to have a mix. Now I have to try Fidji! I also prefer the original Tresor, I'd bought Tresor in Love once but it was too fruity sweet so I returned it. Clarins is lovely! 👍😘 And please take your time, no rush, I'm always happy to hear from you! Hope you're feeling better, take care, love and hugs! 🥰🤗💖
@@AnnieS22 I'm happy to report that the Fidji is excellent! It's an EDT but lasts ages. I got it from Amazon U.K. (at a great price, of course!). I'm trying to cope with the after-effects of fatigue but I'm just grateful to be done with hospital treatment. I'll be on oral chemo (tablets) for 4 years. Thank you for your thoughtfulness & support. Lots of love ❤💐🍁
I think it’s a beautiful soliflor rose fragrance and the colour is beautiful. I don’t own it but am thinking of adding it sometime. I love SL fragrances though
Hi Julia, thanks so much for watching! It is a beautiful fragrance, I've only recently purchased from this house and I definitely want to try more! Which ones are your favorites from Lutens? 💖🥰
good call! if you like rose perfume, A La Rose from Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Chloe EDP, Jo Malone Red Roses, Emanuel Ungaro's Diva are some options that won't stain the dress!
that always sucks, that's the reason I sometimes shy away from niche perfumes, they cost so much and give lousy performance, then each time I have to spray more, i'm counting $$$ flying in the air! haha! Santal M & FDB perform better though. 💖😘
Bonjour Annie, ce n’est pas l’un de mes préférés chez Lutens. Sur moi il ne ressort pas bien. J’aime plusieurs Lutens mais pas celui ci. Je trouve la couleur des jus souvent intense pour les vêtements. Il y a de bien meilleur parfums à la rose sur le marché.
Merci beaucoup! Je suis d’accord, il y en a meilleurs et ils ne laissent pas de taches. Mais je m’intéresse aussi aux Fleurs d’oranger, Chergui, Datura Noir, comment les trouves-tu? ❤️ (pardonne des fautes de grammaire, il y a plus de quinze ans que j’ai appris cette belle langue)😘😊
I do really love this fragrance. To me it's one of the most beautiful rose in perfumery. Thank you for the review.
Thanks so much!

Hi Veronika, yes, it's a gorgeous perfume, just have to be careful about the stains! lol!
I love Serge Lutens fragrances, I don’t have this one but it sounds good! It’s a shame it doesn’t last longer. The liquid is such a stunning colour ❤️
Hi love, it is beautiful but the liquid stains the clothes! 😒
I'm so glad you did this review 👏 😍
Hope it was helpful! 😉 Is it something you think you might like?
Hi lovely! Thank you for doing this thorough review! I was looking at this and have always been on the fence about getting it. 💕😘
Thanks beautiful! 😘💖So what do you think now? 😉
@@AnnieS22 I will pass on this one lol.

Thank you! I almost was going to grab this for my wedding but once I saw the red juice I backed out 😂

Great description. I had a decant of this, it didn’t work for me, but it is beautiful.
Thanks Jane, yes, it's not for everyone! I do plan to wear it a lot in coming months as I don't have too many cold weather florals! 😉🥰💖
an SL review ! YES !!!!
👍😉 yes, finally!
Thanks for your honesty....linear fragrances are good but maybe this is a pass...I like bold fragrances 😁
you're welcome, dear. yeah, I'm also leaning more towards more complex fragrances but i do appreciate the depth and craftsmanship of it! 🥰💖
Hmm interesting take on it, I like la fille Berlin,to me it’s like deep red wine rose, another one I really like is Ellie Saab rose essence....
Thanks Valerie, I do like it too, it's a beautifully done rose! I haven't tried Elie Saab, will try to get my nose on it! 🥰💖
Good analysis
loved your review!
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it! 😉💖
i do hear or read a lot that some SL kinda lack in the longevity area... :/ especially for the price....
