    Nice score Atelier Cologne! Didn’t try that one, but love Grand Neroli and Ambre Nue.

      I bought a small bottle of the Orange Sanguine, but then when I got it home, discovered that I had similar things that I liked much better. Oh well!

          When I wore Guerlain Mandarine Basilic next to the Orange Sanguine, was very surprised to find I liked the Guerlain much better. That’s the only one I can remember now – not at home w/ my notes.

    At least there’s no other stuff on this list. I saw some unbelievable lists until now, despite I love to read them.

      Not sure what you mean exactly, but I only list the main awards, not all of them.

        Some perfumes that are part of the lists shouldn’t be there. I really like to read lists.

      I think it won in another country too, but now can’t remember where!

    I liked Elie Saab – wearable, sophisticated, complex and pleasant. Goof office scent. It didn’t get a lot of love online, but there’s a place for scents like this.
