Gres Parfums Cabotine Eau de Toilette Spray For Her, 100ml

Bitter clover, crunchy grasses and smooth, jammy currants. This is one of those deceptively "fresh and clean" scents that seems light upon initial application, but can bloom into an incredibly tencious and expansive scent if over applied. I like just a hint of it on my skin when I want to give the impression that I made a fussy effort getting ready :). It's distinctive and clean and would make a great "professional setting" scent.The ginger lily accord adds a touch of powdery spiciness and the cybet (I'm assuming, considering budget restrictions, that it is a replacement for civet -- I hope it is! I wouldn't want to support them if it was the real thing!) adds a velvety, animalic warmth in the base, that hints at musty furs or leathers. That slight mustiness makes an otherwise squeaky-clean, sunday-coffee-and-perfume scent seem a bit rebellious and I could see cigarette smoke being able to meld with this blend.If you like dry, crunchy, green scents and liked the melon/calone undertones of late 80's and 90's scents like "Byblos", "Poison" and "Eden", you'll probably appreciate "Cabotine" (which, I believe, means "show-off", as in, flamboyant kind of showiness). It's a sheerer interpretation of "Poison" with a hint of the chemical greeness of "Eden". I really enjoy it...in small doses. It's, both, one of a kind and yet, gives the most general impression of "perfume".Fragrantica.I have Tendre Poison and Cabotine is a dupe, Tendre smells slightly warmer.

Beautiful scent and last all day

With funds not as they were I decided on the Cabotine eau de toilette, a daytime scent, very fresh, light & airy, the problem was it really, it's like fresh air, I had great difficulty in smelling it, using more still doesn't help & definitely won't over power anyone, this really is a watered down version.After using Cabotine for over 25 years now, I will definitely save my pennies until I can afford to buy my usual, the Eau de Parfum, it smells & lasts as it should do. Brought the 50ml for myself & this 30ml one for a friends birthday as she'd always ask what I was wearing, only hope she's alot happier.Thanks anyway I know for next time now.

Lovely perfume is now accentuated by using shower gel and body cream. This last one is not too reach which is ok for me as it gets easier to spread. I constantly get comments on how nice I smell all day. Recommended as a lovely Christmas gift

Should have bought the perfume instead of Eau de Toilette spray, as the scent disappears quickly

Good. Have had this scent before. Good value for money.

Very good parfum

I adore this classic retro scent. I always get asked what I'm wearing after a spritz....... it takes me back to wandering round the beauty counters in big department stores in the '90s; it's a nostalgia aroma. Floral and fresh, grass and meadows, this scent will put a smile on your face,
