Once upon a time, the woods were for men and the flowers were for women. Coco Chanel and her perfumer Ernest Beaux rebelled against these stereotypes by creating Bois des Iles , a dark woody composition that was as elegant as it was shocking.

We've all heard the pap the perfume machine puts out. Here are some examples from recent releases: Uh huh. You wear this and you're sweet, strong, and adventurous, but not much of a speller. Or Come on, people. Someone paid for that copy? I'm already asleep.

Since my complexion is fair I decided to buy the toilette water version, therefore the smell is not too sharp/not too heavy and stays well on me. My son tells me that I smell nice and fresh like a meadow : -) , my colleagues and friends also commented that the smell is very vivid and fresh.

Draws Compliments; Great Smell; Sensual

Luv this fragrance, it's soft and last a very long time, luv to layer it with the body cream. This was a great buy compared to buying from the department store.

It opens with a lovely orange blossom then comes the jasmin mixed with other notes which reminds me of Thierry Mugler Alien Essence Absolue. I now understand that's the jasmin mixed with sweet notes as honey or vanilla and amber in the case of AEA that made me feel weird.

The perfume is not strong.....stays just for a couple of minutes....I don't know if I got a piece that is defective but disappointed that I got a bad deal on such a good fragrance

I have purchase many fragrances over the years, but ELIE SABB is the Winner! This is the first review that I have written about any fragrance, so just that should relay the message.

Elie Saab is an exquisite woodsy, floral perfume; the orange blossom and jasmine are blended beautifully. It is a very noticeable scent but not too overpowering. Elie Saab takes me back in time to the elegant and mysterious perfumes of the 70's and 80's like Cinnabar by Estee Lauder, Magic Noire by...

If Lebanon smells like this I want to go there for a vacation. The perfume starts with lovely orange blossom that eventually morphs into jasmine, supported by patchouli and cedar notes. The honey note lends the composition almost a gourmand character. A flowery dessert.

I was very fortunate last Christmas to receive a number of new bottles of perfume, one of which was this Elie Saab Le Parfum. I am a sucker for pretty bottles of perfume and like to display them around my bedroom therefore I was very pleased with the look of this perfume bottle before I had even had...

Feminine scent; beautiful bottle design; good longevity

None that I can find
