Notes: Mimosa, peach blossom, floral notes.Pros: I fell in love with this at first sniff...somewhere between fabric softener freshness, and a Houbigant floral.
Cons: Linear, without much development.
Reminds me of: Houbigant Demi-Jour; Chloe.
Development: none
Longevity: Superb, lasted a good 6 hours on me.
Sillage: Also, superb! I was immediately asked what I was wearing and complimented after applying.
Where can I buy it? $28 for 2 oz spray at Beautycafe.com
Bottleworthy? If you ever loved Demi-Jour or Chloe, or are a fan of the fabric softener fad, this one's for you!
The Bottom Line: Another winner from our friends at Eadward. I'm enjoying this range immensely (see my review for Tranquil) and Belle was a true surprise. Having always loved the scent of peach blossom and tea roses in Houbigant's long forgotten Demi-Jour, imagine my shock when I first sniffed Belle - no, they aren't exactly the same, but the memories come flooding back. A sweet, fresh aroma with soft powdery floral undertones, this one never really treads into traditional floral territory, but hovers on the verge of a unisex "clean" scent.
