    Tenacious, yet serene and calm. This perfume epitomizes its name: L'eau d'Hiver. Upon first contact, it sends a gentle aroma of white, green floral, and perhaps musk, almost like baby powder...

    I spent my first year on MUA trying Serges and L'Artisans and Rosines, and basically ignoring the Malles. My first experience with them all was, let us say, unimpressive. But then a strange thing...

    When I tried L'eau d'hiver for the first time my initial thought was to wonder where exactly Jean-Claude Ellena is spending his winters. It opens with a decidedly green, herbal accord. Very...

    After the poster below explained that this means "Winter water", this scent makes more sense to me. It's clean yet complex. There's something simultaneously winter/cool and cozy to me, like...

    Cool flowers on top, warm muskiness underneath. The fragrance evokes coziness and comfort, so it's perfect for those cold, cold winters. It's also slightly powdery but never so much that it would...

    I fell so deeply in love with the 5ml sample, I purchased the 3.4 oz bottle direct from Paris. This is the most delicious scent. I get the musk about 1-2 hours into it. The jasmine is not detected...

    I have to agree with the poster below. This was a MAJOR disappointment. I am going to try to describe this one without using the word bugspray, but it's going to be hard. At first spray, it...

    Another F. Malle disappointment! As mentioned below non of it is overtly offensive, to me it has NO character and might as well just be another generic dull fragrance. I do agree it 's etheral to...

    At first, I found Eau d'Hiver to be a rather innocuous scent on my skin, and rather evokative of Bonne Belle's Skin Musk - creepily so! My chemistry is really picking up the musk and making it...

    Wow. This one was really cozy and soft, unique and lovely, and perfect for winter. I can smell some heliotrope in it, but it is also slighty spicy, slightly powdery, yet overall, it is very...

    Starts off with an unpleasant bitter, almost metalic note that made me nervous as I had purchased this "unsniffed". Thankfully after about ten minutes the gorgeous heliotrope breaks through to save...

    This is so delectable, I received this as an extra and I've fallen in love completely with it. Its a very gentle fragrance, the combination of heliotrope and honey really softens this scent. I...

    L'eau d'Hiver, translated as Winter Water, is a fascinating and hauntingly beautiful and complex scent- "art in liquid form." It sounds a bit much, but truly, it's a really different scent, and one...

    I consider d'Hiver to be a very quiet scent. I typically wear this when I'm going to be around people who I know aren't perfume fans. I get baby soft heliotrope from this and feel beautiful when...

    This has grown on me in a big way! Wish it lasted longer. Others have described it very well. I'm also reminded a bit of Apres L'Ondee--but this is very modern and hip in comparison. I enjoy...

    Hoorah! I have found a Frederic Malle for me, something I didn't think possible! <p>After a dry, almost citrusy but not quite, very "leathery" start it quickly becomes seriously soft and snuggly,...

    I am not fond of light or watery fragrances, because with my lizard-like metabolism (Cold hands, warm heart--that's me!), they tend to smell like NOTHING. That's why I waited so long to try Eau...
