mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
such a beautiful, beautiful scent.
i am all about rocking essential oils and i've never had an interest in spray on fragrances, espeically ones with designer names attached to the labels. i stumbled upon a sample of this scent three years ago and i haven't been able to shake it. classique smells lovely. for me, it's the subtle layering of usually overwhelming scents: sandalwood, rose, vanilla.
i'm not a fan of toilettes - parfums are cleaner, albeit the scent is more potent, and they last longer. i'm very happy it compliments my natural chemistry perfectly.
and as you can see, the bottle's sexy too. worth every penny.

I must wait about an hour into this one for it to get just right. It's sometimes too heavy on the rose and the blend is sharp when initially sprayed. I get strong notes of warm,heavy rum intermingled with sweet roses when as it dries down. The edt doesn't seem to have the same "rum" aroma, and I think this is what makes me slightly prefer the edp over the edt. The rose lasts throughout the layers of the fragrance, which ultimately becomes sensual amber-vanilla-tonka warmth. The lasting power is great - sometimes even too strong and powerful for the first couple of hours. I own the bottle dressed in black lace, and it really adds character to my collection of fragrances. JPG Classique is, to me, a truly fine perfume (even though it's not a boutique fragrance) that I believe will grace the fragrance world for a long, long time. Notes:
Rum Essence, Rose Essence, Vanilla Orchid, Daffodil, Bourbon Vanilla, Sweet Amber, Sandalwood Absolute, Tonka Bean, Amber.

This one has me totally confused! I've read all internet had to offer about this fragrance, and since everyone absolutely loved it, i bought it on ebay without smelling it, for a great deal.
Was i ever disappointed when it came!! It smelled terrible on me! The funniest thing, though, is that it completely changes in about 5 minutes - becomes soft, sweetish (it's never just sweet!) and warm.
Today is the second day i'm trying to decide on this, and now when i first spray it, i don't get that first sharp note anymore.
The clerk at Nordstroms told me "Classique" is the girl you take out, and "Stella" is the girl you marry". So if you're one of the lucky ones and this scent works for your body chemistry - GET IT!!

This is a deliciously yummy AND elegant fragrance, sounds strange to say both but it's true. A soft, caramelly floral that is just divine. My husband said, "You smell amazing!" the first time I wore it - he was experiencing it after I'd worn it for several hours, when it's at its toasty, caramelly best. I never would have tried this fragrance if I'd just seen the "bust" bottle - I totally went off MUA reviews. A winner! Thanks so much!
