Parfums Gres Cabotine By Parfums Gres For Women. Eau De Toilette Spray 3.4 Ounces

I can't describe notes or anything but I was in a mood for a new smell and didn't want to spend a lot and green's my favorite color. Smells like some flower, jasmine, honeysuckle or jasmine ... I always get those mixed up. I smelled a little peppery scent too. I've only had it on an hour so I don't know its longevity. But with the low price it doesn't matter. Will I repurchase ? Probably not. I usually only have 2 perfumes at a time, an expensive heavier one and an everyday body mist. I rarely if ever repeat (except for POISON and LOVELY, my 2 very favs) so when this runs out, I'm sure I'll try one of the other fragrances in this brand. I imagine most people will like smelling it when I wear it, also.

This will sound terrible but when I was a child in the 70s and early 80s, toilet paper was scented. It was a soft, powdery, floral scent. Comparable to dryer sheets of today.Cabotine reminds me of that scent but with musk and citrus notes. It's a sweet, powdery, musky floral that many would call old-fashioned or for a grandma. Older women will likely get a sense of nostalgia for the 70s smelling this little beauty.It's difficult to distinguish notes in this composition. Sometimes I'll pick up a bit of cedar then a hint of ginger. Honestly, the blend is quite nice. For such a soft scent it's strong and long lasting. It borders on being too sweet but is held back because of the civet and more bitter notes. It has nothing on today's fruity, bakery gourmands though.The price is ridiculously low. If you are into vintage, powdery scents then this would be one to try. It's very much a Spring fragrance and IMO, captures a dewy, sunny, spring morning in a bottle.

Love the scent the smell is amazing and lasts!!!!

Refreshing but doesn’t last very long.

This perfume really smells good and it lasts long.

Smells so fresh, just light flowers. Very light, it has been my mom’s favorite for years now.

I hate to write a negative review, but I can’t figure out why so many people love this scent? I realize scents are very personal, but this was extremely off-putting to me. I couldn’t seem to wash of the spritz I sampled and I threw it away immediately after. Reminds me of something an older woman (I’m 60) might spray on in excess which offends everyone who comes in contact. Maybe it’s a personal chemistry thing?

I love the look and color of the bottle. But upon first spraying on the wrists, I found the scent very sharp and plastic like. It grabs the nose and smacks it around a bit. Then it settles back, but ready to assault once more if the nose dares get too close to the wrists. I don't know why this EDT doesn't like me. It just refuses to play nice with my body chemistry. I'm still keeping it hoping it will mellow out as time goes by.
