    Really love this one. Usually I do not like soapy, and the initial scent is admittedly so, but it softens into a beautiful orchid scent. It is light, clean, white and translucent, opalescent. ...

    On first dab I was utterly underwhelmed with Orchidee - it starts off old-fashioned, 'tight' and sharp, rather flat and cloying..but upon later sniffs, I found it had transformed into a gorgeous,...

    Baby wipes on a bed of Mitsuoko...simultaneously sweet, sour & musty - not my cup of tea :P

    On me, the drydown was very much like incense. Musky and somewhat heavy. The scent was fairly longlasting, but close to the body. Not at all flowery - - it seemed "muffled" to me (best word I...

    Interesting. Licorice that dries down to powdery vanilla. Not my style, though.

    Very lovely powdery floral, but as stated in many reviews, one must wait for the drydown to decide on this scent. It's quite musty in the beginning, but fades to elegant powder in the end. I don't...

    Fullmoonstory is right. This fragrance should not be judged by the topnotes. It goes on rather harsh and discordant. You need to wait at least half an hour for the drydown. It 'turns' and softens...

    There are only a few fragrances that start worse with me than Orchidee Blanche. Harsh, acrid and distantly cold, like a woman scorned. Hateful, bitter and dirty. And like a woman scorned, (if she...

    I purchased a bottle of Orchidee Blanche in the L'Artisan boutique in NYC, where the sales assistant assured me that it has not been discontinued, although it's still not available anywhere else in...

    Thanks to the sweet and generous SuburbanSue I was able to finally try a sample of Orchidee Blanche. My verdict: Laura Tonatto Dama on helium. I prefer Dama because she uses the bass clef in her...

    Reminds me alot of a slightly softer version of E. Coudray's Ambre et Vanille; perhaps it's worth a try if you can't find the discontinued Orchidee Blanche.

    What a shame L'Artisan discontinued this fragrance. It's much better than some of their newer offerings (i.e. Timbuktu). Orchidee Blanche is a rarity -- a powdery scent that's not baby powder-y or...

    I received this from a lovely lovely MUAer, but I have to be honest and say that this is not a "me" scent. I love orchids, they are my favorite flower, but I guess I don't like their smell. It just...

    L'Artisan's is one of my absolute favorites fragrance houses. Combining, class with elegance and sensuality, they have produced some of the more complex and interesting blends for my body. The...

    Very powdery, but in a good way. Sweet, powdery, and floral. This smells like nothing else I've smelled before. I like, and will wear it, but wouldn't repurchase.

    This is a beautiful, romantic fragrance. Sweet and slightly powdery, but not sickly sweet (like some fruity ones can be) and not annoyingly dusty and suffocating. A lovely combination of honey and...

    I didn't care for this fragrance at all. It dried down to a sweet, tart, powdery scent, reminding me of, believe it or not, J&J baby aspirin!! Body chemistry does mean everything when it comes to...

    This was in the first batch of L'Artisans I reviewed for MUA. I must have missed this one when I added them to Productville. The notes are iris root, vanilla, jasmine and honey. This is a pretty...

    Frankly, this fragrance did not appeal to me much at first -- but since my husband gave it to me, I felt compelled to keep wearing it and I'm glad because I've become quite fond of it. The...
