I groaned to soon! When I read ‘baies’ I thought it was an ode to pink pepper. But apparently it means berries,* which is slightly more interesting, just not for me.
*My 97th percentile linguistic intelligence is just a scam!
LOL — yes, well, we’re all slowly learning perfume French 🙂
If it makes you feel better, linguistically, L’Artisan has the name of one of the perfumes spelled wrong on their own site, and as near as I can tell, one of the perfumer’s names is spelled wrong on the perfume box. So you’re not alone!
It’s not been the same since the takeover. I wore Mure et Musc (an unusual choice for me) for a while, bought from their stand-alone, much-missed by me anyway (!) shop in London’s Covent Garden, & I was pleasantly surprised by the number of compliments from friends & colleagues.
I’ll be trying Champ de Fleurs with its LOTV note just to please my husband but maybe this is the one.
Hope springs eternal 🙂
