Annick Goutal Petite Cherie

A beautiful bright and juicy pear that dries down into something that reminds me of a Philosphy scent from the Grace line. Lovely.

I really like the scent of this, it's lovely and fresh and classy; not to mention that the bottle is just so pretty. My problem with this is the scent is oh-so-fleeting on me, and it is by no means inexpensive. Petite Cherie is my 2nd favourite Annick Goutal scent, after Nuit Etoilee.

My husband picked this out and bought this for me on our honeymoon in Paris. He loves the pear smell and so do I. He says I smell like a pastry. (For him, that's a good thing, he has a huge sweet tooth). I really wish it lasted, it is gone within an hour of application. So fleeting. If only Annik Goutal would create an oil roll on or something that lasted 4 hours, then we would be really …Read more

Love, love , LOVE this! I ordered it as eau de toilette, not sure what to expect. Gorgeous fragrance; clean, fresh, absolutely lovely. I got so many compliments I was astounded, because it's a very classy, subtle fragrance. Men especially seem to love it; quite a surprise, because it's such a soft, fresh feminine scent, and very understated. I am so taken with it I ordered the …Read more

First of all I would like to review the body wash of this fragrance. I purchased the body wash at least 5yr ago, expensive however very worth it. I stopped using it bec I developed very itchy skin, not from the fragrance but from other things I was also using while showering. So one day looking through the cabinet this is what I found at the back of it and pulled it out and somehow the …Read more

I loved the first bottle of EDP I purchased, the second bottle just didn't seem to meet the standards of the first. I have no clue why. That said, I don't care for the EDT version of this as on me the dry down is watery an weak. I only wear EDP of any fragrance therefore in stronger concentration this is much nicer. For nearly a decade this has been one of my summer scents in heavy …Read more

The opening really smells like pear. I'm actually surprised by this because most things I've tried which were supposed to smell like pear usually just smell like "indistinct fruity note" to me. This actually smelled like a pear fruit.

After a few minutes, I get almost a floral note from this. It reminds me of lilly of the valley. There is no lilly of the valley …Read more

Very linear on me, like a peach body lotion. My sister thought it smelled like shampoo. Nothing I liked all that much.

This is a pretty scent if you like fruit-scented perfumes, which I happen to love. It definitely smells like pears-very light and sweet-smelling. It seems to smell even sweeter after it is on your skin for a few minutes. I may have given this a 4, really, but like most everyone else has said, the fragrance just doesn't last at all! It was almost completely gone in less than an hour.

This is sweet and has pleasant notes of pear and peach, but there's something a bit too sharp and off-putting about it. The top notes reminded me of the sharp, sterile smell of a dentist's office and I can't seem to shake the association. I can understand why people like it, but it's not soft enough to deliver the fruit notes faithfully.
