    I tried this perfume a few years ago for just one day and it made such an impact on me but I had only had time to go to the store to get it yesterday. I'm very glad I did! Ormonde Jayne perfumes...

    I have over the years paid many a trip to Linda's fantastic bijou store. She certainly knows her stuff when it comes to perfumes and their creation. I own Ormonde and Ta'if - both of which I like...

    I purchased a sample of this expecting to like it, but it smells like syrupy sweet honey on me. Toothachingly sweet. I much prefer Le'a by Saffron James.

    I have just received my samples from OJ and this is the first I have tried. Oddly, I also just discovered a branch of Space NK in my town and they carry the Chantecaille range, so I was able to...

    WOW! This is so beautiful - a tropical spring/summer fragrance which is fresh and very addictive. All of the notes in this are beautiful and they blend together to form a rich, well-rounded fruity...

    Wow. I am in LOVE with this fragrance. I received it in my sample package from Ormonde Jayne and it is by far my favourite from the line. The top notes are sharp (linden blossom, magnolia flower...

    Like a couple of reviewers have noted, this doesn't smell like any frangipani I've ever smelled. It's bright, clear and fresh where I would expect it to be darker, more rounded, and a touch more...

    I was very disappointed in this Frangipani which, to my nose, bears no resemblance at all to the real thing. The opening notes on my skin are all citrus and mint. It stays this way through the...

    Now, here's a real winner! <br>Begins with the sweetness of linden and tanginess of lime and mellows into a gorgeous tropical floral with an amber/musk quality that really accentuates and rounds...

    I think loolyooly summed it up very well. I find a lot of complex florals to be messy and and obtrusive. This one is blended nicely, it flows well. Hope that makes sense. It reminds me of...

    Really gorgeous, lush, creamy, butterly floral, but one that is not oversweet (or indeed particularly sweet at all) and thus doesn't induce nausea even in someone like me, who finds most florals...

    Absolutely sparkling and lovely. Refreshingly tropical without being coconutty or powdery. I enjoy this more than Chantecaille Frangipane (too sweet/too much vanilla at times). All OJ fragrances...

    I'm amazed at how much I like this beautiful, lush frangipane fragrance. It opens up tart and citrusy with linden blossom and lime; the heart is a beautiful mix of fragnipane, jasmine, tuberose,...

    Frangipani is a glorious lush tropical floral scent. Linda Pilkington must have psychic powers, because she said that this one and Ta'if from her line of scents would suit me best and and she was...

    WOW! I can't believe how much I am liking this scent! I was cautious at first because I don't like my fragrances too sweet and with a name like Frangipani, it just screamed sweet to me. Boy was I...

    Generally I'm not really the "floral type", but this is simply astonishing. It's fresh, white, has a bit of citrus and is just beautiful. The smell is rather faint on me, maybe b/c my skin is quite...

    I like this but I'm not in love with it. Its a very strong perfume that gives me a bit of a headache. However, once it drys down it is very pleasant. To me it smells just like a freshly brewed pot...
