    I love this, on me its a beautiful soft creamy almondy floral very subtle and sophisticated. Its a very comforting cosy snuggly type fragrance great for any season. This is one that I will buy a...

    So much has been said about its chilly, icy whiteness, the dancing snowflakes... that I really start to doubt my own nose. Apart from the subtle, inoffensive freshness of the top notes (they fade...

    I love this, but it doesn't like me that much. The honey note is pronounced on my skin, which makes it a no go for me, but if it worked with my chemistry, a large bottle would be on my dressing...

    Very clean, freshly showered, pretty, feminine, mild, inoffensive. The drydown reminds me of a much lighter version of the drydown of AV by Adrienne Vittadini. (Plus, I got 50 ml of AV at TJ Maxx...

    Very creamy with just a touch of sharpish greenness. L'eau d'Hiver is very subtle, and it lives pretty close to the skin (lovers of "sillage" take note). At first spritz, I believe this...

    I dismissed this the first few times I tried it. It's so soft and so subtle that, when spritzed next to really any other scent (say in a store testing scenario), it is completely overpowered and...

    Yuck. It's a sickly spicy floral that smells like spoiled milk the longer it wears. I don't understand how this could be called a fresh scent on the board. I'm glad all I got was a sample.

    When I breath in l'Eau d'Hiver, I smell pine, cumin seeds, turmeric powder, honey, the slightest trace of jasmine, and after a few hours, a drydown of honeyed musk. It's fantastic, and reminds me...

    A dreamy, fairytale scent. Mist-swept, mysterious. On my skin, after an initial burst of citrus (bergamot?) I get strong refreshing green--I picture a dark-green stalk growing out of an ice-covered...

    This is sweet, pleasant and unintrusive, but to me, pretty forgettable. I much prefer Therese to this. I would find it hard to identify/differentiate this from all the white florals out there.

    This is FB worthy for me. Soft and not too sweet. It just makes me say "Ahhhhhh" when I breathe it in. Very comforting scent, too. This is one that should be on everyone's "to try" list.

    JCE composes this scent in his famous minimalism with a goal to ENLIGHTEN Guerlain classic Apres L’Ondee. But Apres L’Ondee still smells much more poetically beautiful than this demure but dull...

    Absolute heaven. Heading for a decant as soon as possible. I get a really strong fresh cut and dried hay scent. I use to help bale hay when I was growing up and it comes through clearly on me....

    I can only assume that I'm anosmic to something in this fragrance - perhaps it's time to rest my perfume weary nose. All I get is an initial blast of something peppery, followed by a fleeting...

    As most of the reviewers here (and the name itself) suggest, L'Eau d'Hiver is a cold weather, comfort scent. It is a bit expensive to wear to bed (and sleep through), which is what I usually do...

    A calm, comforting scent. After the initial crispy opening of bergamot, I get some colder notes including iris and angelica, then it settles down with the most gorgeous soft hawthorn, mixed up with...

    L'eau d'Hiver ... barely there skin scent. At first I couldn't even detect it; it's so faint and barely there. Then it warmed up and smelled like the way Chanel No 5 dried down on my mother --...

    Initially quite peppery, it softens into something softer and more wearable. I get the impression of sheer, vanilla soap. Quite likable after the first stage has died down.
