Let Me Take You Back In Time Via My Memories 1951 VENT VERT GREEN WIND OR IRISH SPRING Vent Vert came into my life in 1951. I was a then young unmarried lady living in London's West End and had a body I'd give anything to have again. I used to wear tight Lana Turner sweaters with pretty good sized sweater bumps and skirts that accentuated my hips and small waist. I was not very confident but was aware that I could easily attract some gentlemen. For me Vent Vert is a perfume of carefree youth, a reminder of what the world was like just after World War 2, the single life and Hyde Park. Everyone I ran into complimented me on this fragrance. I didn't attract my first husband Richard with this fragrance but he did like it on me and I remember I wore it only in the spring time when the fresh floral notes wafted gently into the air when breezes blew on trees in Hyde Park and the green floral notes threw up such an incredible aromatic scent. Everything about this fragrance screams green. It's evocative of parks, woods, hills, and valleys. This reminds me of Ireland or Scotland in the spring time. The first spritz of Vent Vert lacks aldehydes but it is a typical Germaine Cellier because it has a very bright fresh citrusy opening. The citrus notes were standard of the period. This is a fruity bergamot orange, and it also has a zesty lemon and lime very sharp and fortunately not an astringent or medicine type of citrus, nor a man's aftershave. That effect was present in such frags as Shalimar or Habit Rouge but not this one. The first notes of Vent Vert are comprised of more fresh and energetic citrus. It's the green wind, green with lemon scents. Almost, almost but not quite a perfumed version of a lemon or lime scented furniture polish or Lysol spray bottle for cleaning up your home. I mean this in the nicest way possible Orange blossoms begin to emerge out of the citrus but now it's neroli and orange flowers. They then embrace the floral scents that are in this fragrance. They include violet, freesia, jasmine, hyacinth, ylang, lily of the valley, rose, iris and marigold. These are somewhat soapy flowers, not quite a powdery floral aroma. They smell like soap but very expensive and well made soap. There's also a lot of green notes and galbanum which give the florals a touch of realism. One could almost smell the leaves and the grass and bushes in this green garden setting. The galbanum note is quite strong here. It's one of my favorites and a signature note of any green chypre fragrance or chypre floral scent. This note always creates a mood and that mood is melancholic nocturnal and autumnal. There's an asafetida scent as well that smells like vinegar or cooking oil. At once it reminded me of both Chanel No 19 - only more floral, but just as green - and Ivoire de Balmain, a fragrance that shares many of the same notes almost note for note. Balmain was a top designer in the post World War 2 period and even the great fashionista and Vogue editor Diana Vreeland remarked that Balmain was the must have designer in one's wardrobe. Like Chanel No 19 and Ivoire, this green soapy chypre scent can indeed smell like a million bucks worth of fashion. If you like Chanel No 19 but you're turned off by too much greenery, this perfume has more flowers to enjoy. The heady marigold, violet, jasmine, hyacinth, and ylang, not to mention the iris lily of the valley, are all here, and waiting for you each time you wear her. The flowers are spring flowers in the outdoors, on fields and garden beds, airy, and breezy. It really does smell true to it's moniker. This is a green breeze, carrying with it the aroma of wild flowers and fresh green aromas. The florals are not there for long. The dry down robs the florals of their precious longevity and instead the fragrance turns into one of woods, vetiver grass, sage bush, oak moss and styrax. These base notes are warm, not musky but mossy, very mossy and that styrax/woods pairing is rather masculine. The dry down smells like a man's cologne in today's context but not in the 1940's or 50's when such darker woodsier/mossier scents were common in women's perfume. The vetiver is like a glossy polish and it's elegant and dark. This was always an evening cologne for me. I wore it on cold winter or autumn nights in London. The dry down is reminiscent of Blue Grass by Elizabeth Arden. I have worn many chypres over the years and this is a beautiful one. There are many to enjoy and if you're interested in this category of perfume please check out the following scents: Elizabeth Arden's Blue Grass Chanel No. 19 Carven Ma Griffe Jean Louis Scherrer Scherrer Balmain Ivoire de Balmain (of which this most resembles) A beautiful stroll down a park, or an escape into the hills of Tara in Ireland. This perfume has enchanted me from the moment I smelled her and I'm so happy to discover that people continue to wear this scent. Oct162016 www.fragrantica.com Review for 1990 formulation in the frosted cylindrical flacon, as shown: A wonderful scent more than a "fragrance", but don't underestimate this composition by Germaine Cellier. Shamus1 wrote an excellent review along with RobbieX and minimalist. When I first wore this, it was a single spray application on my shirt sleeve. It impressed me, but I wanted warm sunshine and a beautiful spring day for a full-wearing before writing a full review and exalting this great bottle of juice! Mid-80's today in Northern Calfornia - blue skies, not a single cloud! Perfect. The opening is a beautiful, bright-as-the-bottle citrus blend of fresh-squeezed lemon juice and a dash of bergamot and mint (I just caught it - wow!) As invigorating an opening you can imagine. Pure - not synthetic at all or even a hint of sweetness (which would have ruined this great bottle). I may just squeeze fresh lemon and rub a little mint on my other hand next time to compare. A note that may be in there and not listed in the pyramid is lemon verbena. As I smelled this more - I realized that the mint is a light touch, but there is an herbal note in the top that blends this perfectly into the heart. I use a lot of herbs to cook and used to grow lemon verbena. If it is not there, then it is a figment of my imagination - but I believe it is. By the way, this notes segues wonderfully into the rosemary in the heart and finally warming to clary sage in the base. It is not a truly "linear" composition. But, let me first address connotation here. The beautiful lemon note in this IS linear, but the surrounding composition is not. As shamus1 and RobbieX clearly write, this blends and evolves with other notes wonderfully. I love the clean vetiver in the base - great "green note" transition from the mint on top to the rosemary in the middle. The addition of ginger is key as well...which I think is an essential part of this fragrance. It keeps a fresh, zingy and sharpness to the scent. Fresh ginger is so fragrant and one of my favorite notes in fragrance, plus I find it blends very well into compositions that need "lift" and sparkle. That is in here, most definitely - along with a nice pinch of fresh pepper. The base is a white musk - not dirty at all mixed with the aforementioned clean & crisp vetiver and nice sandalwood blend. This never get cloying or even close to sweet (as mentioned) and the dry down's greenness is further accentuated by another wonderful note - clary sage. This plays beautifully with the rosemary in the heart and vetiver/sandalwood in the base. Overall - I would call it a wonderful scent that goes way beyond expectations on depth of the composition and longevity is fair (although it is a skin scent after about 2 hours). Highly recommended to apply to both moisturized skin and clothing. This really breathes - liberally apply and layer a few extra sprays before leaving the house. This would transition absolutely beautifully with a hot, balmy day's wear and followed in the evening with a nice vetiver that is not too deep or rooty (Guerlain EDC/EDT, Givenchy, Vintage Carven EDC/EDT, Vetiver Hombre - just to name a few). But, that is also assuming you don't just reapply while getting changed & refreshed for an evening out. This is, for me, a truly great scent and an expression of olfactory pleasure. I cannot imagine this not being enjoyed by both the wearer and those around him. It warms so well on the body. I will refrain from comparing it to others. Why? Because it is excellent on it own merit. I will wear this casually, formally - both indoors and outdoors in the Spring and Summer warmth. I will also keep a travel spray with me when wearing this as it needs to be re-applied to keep the top citrus notes projecting for more than the initial 2 hours, but the base itself is wonderful. It lasts about 4-5 hours on me indoors with a nice, faint skin scent remaining, which is perfect for transitioning to another scent (so you can let it just drydown) The question is - do you want more top notes and, therefore, refresh during the course of the wear - because you don't have to. This is personal choice. It exudes taste, class, freshness and confidence...8/10. A side-note to finish - the first purchase I ever made from Pierre Balmain was a beautiful silk necktie that I still have in my collection (it is timeless). It has garnished more compliments than I can count. This is in the same vein - noticeable, distinguished and chic. **Update** - After a nice 4-5 hour wearing of Monsieur Balmain in which I was outdoors in warm weather for part of it (and not refreshing), I was still left (especially on my shirt with a nice, light accord of clean vetiver and musk with a slight herbal tinge). Very nice. It made me think of what's next, since the weather is definitely warm today! Spring has arrived with vigor - it almost feels like a summer day. I decided (not for comparison purposes), but for a natural transition - to clean my face and neck thoroughly (since I applied Monsieur Balmain with neutral after shave balm on my light beard for more projection and to refresh my skin) and apply a nice light layer of current formulation Dior Eau Sauvage After Shave splash lotion (brilliant top notes) and a nice decant of older Vintage Eau Sauvage Cologne - perfectly preserved juice that I recently acquired from a seller who has become a good friend! The moss is present in the Vintage formula and the citrus and herbal top notes are in their full glory. The transition from a morning application of Monsieur Balmain to Eau Sauvage - sublime, perfection, seamless. I applied to my shirt as well and found they blend harmoniously - this is not revelatory, but one can only understand if they experience for themselves. Not a comparison of scents - but a two-part symphony that is so well composed and orchestrated. Notes, overtones and undertones go so well together...harmony. The brightness of the morning sun (Monsieur Balmain) in the lemon-drenched herb garden that fades out to the late afternoon glow...sunsetting into dusk (Eau Sauvage) on the moss-covered side of the tree. Wow - this is truly special - a warm Spring day of pure olfactory pleasure. Apr202012 www.fragrantica.comMonsieur Balmain Pierre Balmain for men. Парфюм balmain

Часовая компания Balmain уникальна, так как она сохранила в своих творениях французский шарм своего основателя и сделала швейцарское качество одной из основ своей философии. Пьер Бальмен родился в 1914 году во французском городке Сент-Жон де Марьен. В 31 год мастер открыл свой первый магазин в Париже и добился успеха. Часовая компания Balmain – также очень успешный проект французского модного дома, доказательство чему – престижная среди производителей премия «Золотой наперсток» (Golden Thimble trophy), полученная маркой в 1984 году. В 1987 году крупнейшая часовая компания Swatch Group приобрела права на производство эксклюзивной продукции Balmain, и теперь продажа швейцарских часов идет в 30-ти странах мира. Balmain создал новую сенсацию, которая привлекла всеобщее внимание. Бренд впервые представил парфюм. Роскошная и искрящаяся женщина является основой проекта Balmain.
