| Blends of floral and citrus-based fragrances are recommended for casual and daywear. Spicy, woody or warm amber-based fragrances are traditionally favorites for evening and special occasions. |

| Regarding the Bal a Versailles EDT - interestingly, I found out later that the first time I tried it I was coming down with a virus, as I got sick later that day. I really think being ill or even menstruating can change either the way a perfume smells on a woman or even the way we perceive it. When I tried it B a V again, I got all the mysterious spicy notes. As someone else noted, though not as favorably, this perfume definitely smells like Nag Champa incense. I used to burn it all the time and everyone always told me how wonderful my apartment smelled. I think I have wonderful memories of being young, beatiful, single and living in San Fransciso when I smell this fragrance. (Not that I would EVER exchange those fun times for my beloved daughter and husband that I have now!!!) The Bal a Versailed is lovely - mysterious, smoky, spicy-floral-musky and VERY sexy! And yes, somewhat powdery, but I like that too. |
