    its cute…

    but i don’t make the connection of the Cote d’Azur with Dior Addict. Dior Addict is such a strong, vanilla heavy perfume, it’s made for chilly nights when you plan on being super seductive. a candle light dinner where the woman drops her shoe and lets it wander up the man’s leg.

    intense kissing in a small alley, where the rain left the cobblestone pavement glistening.

    a woman arriving at an old fashion penthouse to surprise her man, wearing a fur coat. and nothing else.

    those are Dior Addict images. not a cute young girl strolling around the beach. the BEACH for crying out loud. Dior Addict is no BEACH fragrance.

      It’s probably a better fit for the 2 new flankers, which she is holding but which they don’t name — they are (reportedly) lighter & more summery.

    Still, BB looked better – that’s the look she went for, right?

      I agree. I did think it was a cute video that will probably appeal to the teen/early twentyish female. It was a real hodgepodge, with the title and model paying homage to Roger Vadim and BB. To me, it was Brigitte Bardot meets Umbrellas of Cherbourg, with the opening music not credited to Sidney Chaplin. I have no wish to try any of the scents.

    Got a sample yesterday, have been trying it all morning.

    Can’t dscribe each and every note. Suffice to say that the beginning is exactly like Hypnotic Poison Eau Sensuelle, minus the Hypnotic notes (which were scarce anyway) It’s a jasmin/orchid/pale woods EDT.The jasmine skank goes away soon, thank God.

    Two hours later, I smell Forever and Ever, the limited edition in the pink flacon.

    Not bad but deja vu, unless you’re too young to remember the originals.
