This is a beautiful and unusual fragrance, very different from most modern scents. It made its debut in 1906. It's a cold, somber violet-y fragrance with moss and anise notes. Quiet and reflective,...

My summer staple for near on 15 years. Summer and light, yet warm. Fragrance is so individual, so I don't feel reviews can ever be fair. But this is the perfect summer fragrance!

Guerlain describes this scent as the embodiment of delicacy. The EDT starts out with a rush of aniseed and violet. I can smell a little carnation in the dry down and iris. According to Guerlain...

Cool, dry, soft, unique, and gorgeous, just like my favorite wimmins. When a fragrance has a hawthorn note, all bets are off: I've got to have it. Something about Après l'Ondée reminds me of my...

Airy is right, it smells like the interior of an airplane after a 6 hour flight upon first app. Needless to say it dries down nicely into the softness I was looking for but I need to assess this...

Yes, I just bought the parfum at that incredibly obscene price! It is wonderful and delicious. I have not tried the EdT, so I cannot compare, unfortunately. The parfum radiates the warmth of...

Received sample of this in swap. Apres L'ondee. Swoon. Died and gone to fragrance heaven. This is a GORGEOUS fragrance. The little touch of herb/leaf is the killer. You can live through the...

What a beautiful fragrance. Truly an old world smell. It reminds me of hawthorn blossoms after rain. It's soft and powdery and a little reminiscent of L'Heure Bleu. I love it.

It gives me an impression that it is a lighter version of L'Heure Bleue, one of my favorites. Apres l'Ondee is very gentle and soothing. But the only problem is that it does not last long. I am...

the parfum was a gem and they recently discontinued it for cheap trendier less costly to make fragrances like L Instant.

I am a big lover of violets and so I decided to give this a try, since I like the "old" Guerlains. First, yes, I smelled fantastic violets, but there was an other note that immediately reminded me...

I have changed my mind. I again only tried the EDT, but I love this fragrance! It is truly magical, sweet, powdery, slightly violet, but unlike any violet scent I have tried. Appropriate always....

I echo Naiad's scentiments exactly! Gorgeous scent but I like my fragrance spicier and more exotic. I can see my mother wearing this (that's a good thing though!). BTW I sampled the Parfum.

I find this scent powdery, musty, and heavy on the anise and violet - two notes I tend to dislike in a scent. It truly smells stale to me. I only tried the EDT, however.

Among the fragrances that I love, Apres l'Ondee is the one that notably makes me feel beautiful. I breathe it in deeply to take in the violet that blends artistically with anise, rose, and iris to...
