Selected by Denyse Beaulieu to feature in her top 10 of 2016 for Grain de Musc, Guimauve de Nöel is a pillowy marshmallow scent flavored with orange flower water and dusted in enough powdered sugar to make your teeth ache. But while it reminds us most pleasurably of fougassette, a type of bread fragrant with orange flower water sold in every market in Provence, this is not at all a heavy, gluttonous fragrance. Rather, it is a tender puff of orange flower-scented air with the sparkle of sugar crystals. It has a very French character, reminiscent both of those little chouquettes eaten by French schoolchildren at snack time, as well as the milky vapors of their evening baths, orange flower water sprinkled liberally into the water by Maman. Guimauve de Nöel is a frothy, tender delight that is just perfect for celebrating the innocence of youth and the joy of family life. If you are a lover of By Kilian’s Love or Eau Aimable by Le Couvent des Minimes, then you will adore Guimauve de Nöel.

 

Notes:

Orange blossom, vanilla, sugar

Lovely fragrance

This is a lovely orange blossom fragrance with moderate longevity. Not quite as sweet as Dries Van Noten Jardin De L’orangerie but good.

A Delight

I actually really enjoy this. It’s a non screechy take on love don’t be shy, more wearable

Pleasant and soft

Pretty marshmallow / orange blossom. More realistic and less headache inducing than LDBS. Less floral than Sintra, Perdizione, O Feminin.

Better after dry down

After the initial spray this smells so close to sprayway glass cleaner (white can with blue lid), and that’s not a bad thing because it’s an enjoyable smell. Dry down is very soft orange complimented by vanilla and does not smell like the cleaner

Good orange blossom vanilla combo

Quality scent, in the family of Love don't be shy and Oriana. Moderate projection and strength. Lasts about 4-6 hrs.

Delicious Orange Blossom

Orange Blossom and sweet goodness! A bit too much for summer, so now it makes sense that it's named Christmas Marshmallow

Smells delicious!

This smells like Sintra but without the green note. I adore it. I wish it lasted longer, though.
