I am disappointed with this perfume, it does smell good but when I put it on, the scent disappears immediately. Too bad, I can smell the violet but not too much of the other notes.
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
Thank you Roselyne for giving our rose label perfume a chance! We are happy that you appreciated its violet note, even though we regret that the longevity was not up to par: it's true that it can vary from one skin to another, it's so frustrating sometimes! The whole team hopes you appreciated the speed of your parcel's shipment and the little attentions that were included? We wish you good luck in your olfactory quest, and maybe see you soon...

I have Kilim. The scent is very nice, but it doesn't last very long. After an hour, I can barely smell anything. My clothes don't smell at all. Maybe the perfume will last longer, since it's not an eau de parfum, which is a shame...
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback Marcin. We’re delighted that you enjoyed kilim’s scent, although we’re sorry its longevity didn’t meet your expectations. This isn’t the experience most of our customers report with the eau de parfum kilim, but fragrance performance can vary considerably depending on individual perception, skin chemistry, your beauty routine and other external factors. If you’re looking for even greater intensity and longevity, our pure perfume collection is formulated with a much higher fragrance concentration and may be a better match for what you’re looking for. And stay in touch, because we will soon unveil an even more concentrated collection, and kilim will be part of it 🤐 Feel free to contact us if you need to discuss more about it, or if you have any further questions... Kindly, Maxime

To be honest, I ordered the sample box but I regret to inform you that none of the samples satisfied me. Used to wearing reminiscence, rem, or patchouli, I really did not find the same scent sensation. So I will not be ordering any perfumes and goodbye for my 15 euros.

Response from CARREMENT BELLE
Thank you nonetheless for having the curiosity to test our perfumes, Sandrine. We take great pleasure in creating our own fragrances for 40 years, never seeking to copy those of our colleagues. It is therefore quite normal that the scent of our perfumes is different from what you may know from other brands. Good luck in your olfactory quest... and maybe see you one day! Maxime

the quick delivery ..super communication ..the smell not at all what I expected and not at all to my taste..not patchouli for me
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
We are happy to read that you appreciated the quality of our service Aurélie, but sorry if the olfactory love at first sight was not there. As explained in my first message, the formula of our ippi patchouli perfume contains more than 40% natural patchouli from Indonesia: it is therefore the main ingredient of this fragrance. However, we can understand that it does not match your interpretation of patchouli, which has been influenced by all the patchouli perfumes you may have liked, which also contain patchouli, but not only. Also be careful not to compare a perfume containing several ingredients (including patchouli) to a patchouli essential oil (which contains only patchouli): these will logically be two totally different scents. It's a shame you didn't start by ordering our Discovery Pack. We sincerely wish you to find your happiness with our colleagues and hope that your nose will cross paths with our perfumes one day!

I bought ippi clear patchouli for the second time, unfortunately I can't find the initial scent, I smell vanilla which is nauseating, too bad...
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
Hello Emilie, let's try to clarify this mystery because praline is still very much present as a base note in ippi clear patchouli, and the formula of this perfume has remained exactly the same since your last order two years ago (almost to the day). Moreover, there is no vanilla in this perfume: if you smell it, it's probably because your brain associates the scent of vanilla with that of another ingredient present in ippi clear patchouli. Be careful not to compare a new bottle with a bottle that you have had for several months or years: over time, a perfume evolves and becomes more intense, often sweeter. It is therefore normal that a freshly produced perfume and the same perfume produced a long time ago do not smell exactly the same. I think it is this natural evolution that explains the differences you perceive between the new and the old bottle, because from our side, nothing has changed! So give this new bottle a little time: its scent will also evolve over the months and you will certainly find the notes you loved... I hope you still appreciated the speed of delivery of your package and all the attentions it contained: do not hesitate to give us feedback on these points as well the next time you leave a review. Have a nice day and see you soon! Maxime

The perfume doesn't smell good, we can't even use it in my burner, it hurts the wallet, 50€ in the trash.
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
(Re)Hello Carine! As explained over the phone, I am sorry that our perfume does not please you and I wish you to find your happiness with our competitors. If you had contacted us before placing your order, we would have advised you to order our Discovery Pack to test our perfumes before committing to buying a bottle... You ordered an eau de parfum for 42€ which is intended to be worn on your skin or clothing primarily. Nothing prevents you from scenting your home with it, but since its spray is sealed, you won't be able to use it in a burner (and that is not the intended use of this product, our indoor diffusers are designed to scent your home). I hope this perfume will bring joy to someone in your circle and wish you all the best for the future.

Fragrance that doesn't last
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
Sorry Yves if our fragrance doesn't suit you, but it would be interesting to try to understand why it doesn't last... on you! If our fragrances didn't last, we would have pulled the curtain a long time ago, but it's good to remember that a fragrance can react, smell, or last differently from one person to another, as the longevity depends a lot on the skin of the person wearing it. Don't hesitate to perfume your clothes, on which the fragrance will last longer, or to opt for a pure perfume that will be even more concentrated and therefore more intense than the eau de parfum. Also be careful of temporary loss of smell caused by allergies or viruses, or a change in cosmetic products in your routine for example. Thank you for having the curiosity to test our fragrances and good luck in your olfactory quest!

Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
We are also disappointed, Valerie, that you did not find your happiness in our collection! The other reviews are as sincere as yours, and you can imagine that if our perfumes did not last, we would not have existed since 1988. The explanation lies elsewhere... While some fragrances in our collection are made to be rather discreet and confidential (musk or aloe for example), others offer a beautiful trail and long-lasting presence. However, it is important to remember that a perfume can react, smell, or last differently from one person to another, as the longevity depends a lot on the skin of the person wearing it. Do not hesitate to perfume your clothes, on which the scent will last longer, or to opt for a pure perfume that will be even more concentrated and therefore more intense than eau de parfum. Also be careful of temporary loss of smell caused by allergies or viruses, or a change in cosmetic products in your routine for example. Finally, I concede that our samples are equipped with a roll-on that is less practical than a spray for dosing and distributing the perfume. This may also explain this impression of lightness, which could disappear with your bottle as it is equipped with a spray. Thank you for having the curiosity to test our fragrances and good luck in your olfactory quest... Maxime

Service and logistics nothing to complain about, the perfume called Vanilla I don't smell vanilla and it doesn't last .. I was hoping for vanilla. Disappointed Caroline
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
We are sorry that you did not have an olfactory crush with our perfume Caroline. However, we wanted to confirm that vanilla is indeed the ingredient at the heart of this fragrance: a natural vanilla from Madagascar to be precise. Be careful: as explained on the sheet of this perfume, it is not a solinote, so other ingredients mingle with the vanilla to give it depth (like caramel, almond, or tobacco). This eau de parfum generally offers good longevity, especially thanks to its sweet notes, but it is true that the longevity can vary from person to person (depending on our skin, the cosmetic products used...). Don't hesitate to perfume your clothes or hair, on which the fragrance may last longer than on your skin. We hope you find your happiness with our colleagues, thank you again for having the curiosity to test our perfume! Maxime

Hello, for a few days I have been testing my sample perfumes and I must admit I am very disappointed with the longevity... after an hour there is no scent of perfume left... I am sorry but because of this I will not be ordering any perfume.
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
We are sorry, Nathalie, if you did not find your happiness among our perfumes, but thank you for having the curiosity to test them! The longevity of a perfume is a very complex phenomenon, but you must suspect that if our perfumes did not last, we would have closed the shop a long time ago! While some fragrances in our collection are made to be rather discreet and subtle (like musk or alō for example), others offer a beautiful trail and long-lasting presence. However, it is important to remember that a perfume can react, smell, or last differently from one person to another, as longevity depends a lot on the skin of the person wearing it. Feel free to perfume your clothes, on which the scent will last longer, or to opt for a pure perfume that will be even more concentrated and therefore more intense than eau de parfum. Also, be aware of temporary loss of smell caused by allergies or viruses, or a change in cosmetic products in your routine, for example. Finally, I concede that our samples come with a dabber which is less practical than a spray for dosing and distributing the perfume. This may also explain the impression of lightness, which could disappear with your bottle as it is equipped with a spray. Don't hesitate to test in real conditions at our retailers who have testers! We wish you to find your happiness with our colleagues, and perhaps see you soon...

I don't like it at all I'm disappointed! It doesn't have the patchouli smell bcq too flowery !!!
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
With over 40% of its formula made up of natural patchouli from Indonesia, it's hard to imagine this fragrance not smelling like patchouli. People who wear this fragrance generally love it for its main note of earthy, woody patchouli, but we can hear that you might be more aware of the few floral notes that round out its composition, Cathy. That's the beauty of perfume: we're all sensitive to different things in the same fragrance! Too bad you didn't order our Discovery Pack to avoid this disappointment. We sincerely hope you find what you're looking for with our colleagues, and that your nose will cross paths with our perfumes one day!

It's a pity because it's becoming impossible to find a perfume that's light and lasts a minimum ((I used to wear Angel Innocent by Mugler, but it's been discontinued ☹️)...I rummage and rummage among nice brands...but it doesn't last... disappointed 😵‍💫
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
We're the first to apologize when the magic between our fragrances and your skin doesn't work, Marie-Hélène, but as you can imagine, if our fragrances didn't last, we'd have closed up store a long time ago! While some fragrances in our collection are designed to be discreet and confidential (musk or alõ, for example), others offer a beautiful, long-lasting trail. However, it's important to remember that a fragrance can react, smell or hold up differently from one person to another, as the way it holds up depends very much on the wearer's skin. Incidentally, you seem to have the same problem with other brands... Don't hesitate to perfume your clothes, on which the fragrance will last longer, or opt for a pure perfume, which will be even more concentrated and therefore more intense than eau de parfum. Beware, too, of temporary loss of smell caused by allergies or viruses.
Finally, I concede that our samples come with an ear touch, which is less practical than a spray bottle for dosing and distributing the fragrance. This may also explain the impression of lightness, which could disappear with your bottle, which is fitted with a spray bottle.
Thank you for your curiosity in testing our fragrances, and good luck in your olfactory quest! Maxime

Thank you Huguette for pointing out the quality of our service, and I'm delighted that you like our packaging!
As for the most important item, the perfume, I'm sorry to see that you're not happy with it. To be factual and tell you more about the quality of our fragrances, you need to know that the formula of this perfume contains over 40% natural patchouli from Indonesia. If you can't "smell the patchouli", it's probably because our fragrance doesn't match your interpretation of patchouli, which has been influenced by all the patchouli fragrances you've ever loved, containing patchouli themselves, but not only.
Finally, on the subject of staying power, it's important to remember that a fragrance can react, smell or hold differently from one person to another, since staying power depends very much on the wearer's skin. Don't hesitate to perfume your clothes, on which the fragrance will last longer, or opt for a pure perfume, which will be even more concentrated and therefore more intense than eau de parfum. Beware, too, of temporary loss of smell caused by allergies or viruses, for example.
Affordable prices for the quality of our perfumes have made us a success since 1988, and ippi patchouli is our first perfume, which has become our iconic fragrance. If it didn't smell like patchouli and didn't hold up, we wouldn't have been around for a long time 😅 Too bad you didn't order our Discovery Pack first to avoid this disappointment.
We sincerely hope you find what you're looking for with our colleagues, and that your nose will cross paths with our fragrances one day! See you soon, Maxime

We're very sorry if our perfumes don't live up to your expectations, Anne-Marie. However, we can't let this kind of unfounded opinion pass without clarifying the way we work. You should know that the formulas of our 3 fragrances built around patchouli (ippi patchouli, ippi patchouli clair and kilim) contain over 40% natural patchouli from Indonesia: it's not fair to say that these fragrances don't smell of patchouli or that they are "chemical". On the other hand, we can hear that they don't match your interpretation of patchouli, which has been influenced by all the patchouli fragrances you've ever loved, themselves containing patchouli, but not only. It's a pity you didn't order our Discovery Pack to avoid this disappointment.

Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
We're surprised, Véronique, because you've been ordering our "vanilla" fragrance for several years, but you've never ordered "ippi patchouli" (not from our website, anyway). What's certain is that this fragrance hasn't changed: it's been our iconic fragrance since 1988, and we'd have no interest in changing a formula that's so popular. Be careful not to compare our fragrance to patchouli essential oil or other perfumes containing patchouli: although over 40% of our "ippi patchouli" is natural Indonesian patchouli, it also contains other ingredients to give it personality and depth. The comparison is therefore irrelevant. We're sorry, however, that you don't like it, but there's no accounting for taste! We hope you've appreciated the quality of our service: shipment in less than 2 hours, delivery in 48 hours, little touches... We hope to see you soon. Maxime

We'd love you to fall in love with our Andrea fragrance, but unfortunately the chemistry isn't always there. And yet, this fragrance's formula contains over 40% natural patchouli from Indonesia: the main ingredient.

Response from CARREMENT BELLE
Hello Laurie,
As someone who should know us so well after so many years of wearing our perfumes, I'm amazed that you think we've changed our packaging "for economies of scale". What a pity you didn't call us, we would have explained to you that the new label decorating our bottles is anything but "cheap": we worked for several months with our French printer to create a specially designed shape, embossing and silver hot stamping. They are then delicately applied by hand in our Nîmes workshop by Dominique and Cécile, which requires a great deal of time and attention. The idea was not to save money, but to offer a graphic universe to each fragrance, to complement their olfactory worlds. We're sorry if you don't like the new design, but we'd have appreciated it if these comments had been tempered by the quality of our fragrances that you love so much, or by the quality of our service with the ultra-fast dispatch of your parcel, the thoughtfulness that goes into it... The whole team wishes you all the very best for the holidays, and we hope that our fragrances will continue to stick to your skin for a long time to come: after all, the most important thing is what's IN the bottle... 😊 See you soon, Maxime

Very disappointed by the fragrances' staying power. After 10 minutes of wear, the scent disappears. Otherwise, the fragrances are nice. Too bad it evaporates too quickly.
Translated reviews
Response from CARREMENT BELLE
Thank you for your curiosity in testing our Patricia fragrances: we're very sorry if you didn't find what you were looking for. If our fragrances didn't hold up, we'd probably no longer be here, 35 years after the creation of our first perfume. So it's worth trying to understand why you felt that way. While some fragrances in our collection are designed to be discreet and confidential (musk or alõ, for example), others offer a beautiful trail and a long afterglow. But it's important to remember that a fragrance can react, smell or hold up differently from one person to another, because how it holds up depends very much on the wearer's skin. What's more, sports and perspiration will alter the way a fragrance holds up: try them on a normal day to see if you notice any difference. Don't hesitate to perfume your clothes, on which the fragrance will last longer, or opt for a pure perfume, which will be even more concentrated and therefore more intense than eau de parfum.
Last but not least, our samples come with an ear bud, which is admittedly less practical than a spray bottle for dosing and distributing the fragrance. This may also explain the impression of lightness, which could disappear with your bottle, as the latter is equipped with a spray bottle. I hope that these elements will enable you to test our fragrances in other conditions, and that the magic with your skin will work! If not, I wish you a wonderful continutation and good luck in your quest for fragrance... See you soon, Maxime

It's a good thing you called us to have a constructive discussion Gilbert. Although our operation is clearly and transparently explained before you place your order, I'm glad you now understand better that the €15 price is only a contribution, as this Discovery Pack has a cost and requires a lot of preparation time. The most important thing is that you've found what you're looking for: your bottle of ippi patchouli ordered yesterday is on its way, and I wish you both the very best of adventures! See you soon...

We are the first ones to be disappointed when a curious nose does not find its total happiness among our Karim fragrances. We would not be celebrating our 35th anniversary this year if our fragrances did not hold up. On the other hand, it is true that the durability of a perfume can vary from one person to another depending on our skin. It also takes time for our brain to get used to new fragrances and discover all their facets. I sincerely hope that you will find your happiness with other perfumes from our collection (maybe try the pure perfumes which are even more concentrated and therefore more intense) or with our fellow perfumers. I look forward to talking to you and have a nice day!

Hello Isabelle, and thank you for having the curiosity to discover our fragrances! We are very sorry if you did not find what you were looking for in our collection. However, we are surprised by your message, because the 12 eaux de parfum that you were able to test thanks to our Discovery Pack are all very different. From the discreet musk to the powerful kilim, from the floral label rose to the woody and earthy ippi patchouli, from the aromatic alfred kafé to the marine ïōdé or from the gourmand vanilla to the festive alõ to name a few, we find it hard to compare. Some perfumes belong to the same olfactory family (musky ones are represented by musk and original musk, oriental ones by ippi patchouli, kilim or so for example), but we try to build, perfume by perfume, a balanced and varied collection. We sincerely wish you to find the perfume you are looking for with our fellow perfumers! Don't hesitate to offer your Discovery Pack to a loved one, hoping that it will make someone else happy... Have a nice day and a good quest!

Very nice packaging. Fast shipping. Passionate about Patchouli, I was not seduced by your perfumes, too much Tiaré flower, too sweet, too light. Not earthy enough, mysterious, powerful... As for the other perfumes, they are also too light. For me, they are not perfumes, but toilet waters. Not unpleasant to smell, but they don't have enough strength, originality... They want to please everyone. It bores me! My advice, be bold, dare!

Thank you for underlining the quality of our service, Isabelle. We understand and accept that you may not like our fragrances: we cannot and do not want to please everyone. We do offer eau de parfum, as well as pure perfumes for those who like very concentrated fragrances, but in your quest for the perfect perfume (for you), keep in mind that not all are made to be powerful and that the hold can vary from one skin to another, as can the olfactory perception of a fragrance (our noses and brains do not necessarily detect the same notes). We thank you very much for having had the curiosity to discover our collection and we wish you good luck in your research with our fellow perfumers. We will continue to create our perfumes with passion for the many curious, faithful, intrigued but not "bored" people by our creations...

I ordered the sample 'kit' hoping to find my future EdT (man). But big disappointment, in the so-called EdT for men ... only one can be suitable for a man, the others are rather for women (even mixed)!

Thank you for your feedback Jean-François. We would be curious to know what is the "only" fragrance in our collection that you consider masculine? The appreciation of a fragrance is very subjective and opinions can differ from one perfume to another. But go and explain to the many men who wear our "mixed and masculine" perfumes indicated on the dedicated page of our site that they wear a perfume for women, I don't think they share your opinion... Besides, why should some ingredients be feminine and others masculine? If in Europe few men wear flowery perfumes, they are numerous to wear rose in the Middle East for example. It's all a question of olfactory culture and one must be wary of the codes imposed in Europe by marketing campaigns for decades. Everyone is free to appreciate and adopt a perfume according to their taste. I hope you have at least appreciated the perfume you consider as masculine, otherwise good luck in your research!

Thank you for your feedback Brigitte, we are already happy that you appreciated the quality of our service. Concerning our ippi patchouli perfume, it has not changed but the explanation is surely elsewhere! With time, and the more we wear a perfume, our brain has a tendency to "fall asleep": as it gets used to a smell, we have the impression of not smelling our perfume anymore (or less). We can also have the impression that it has changed, because the brain then makes the effort to discover other ingredients and other notes of the perfume, less obvious to perceive at first. To fight against this natural phenomenon that affects us all after wearing the same perfume for a long time, we advise you to either change perfume for a few weeks/months to better find the smell of ippi patchouli (this would be an opportunity to test the sunny ippi patchouli CLAIR which is perfect for summer) or to switch to a higher concentration with the pure ippi patchouli perfume (the same smell but more concentrated and therefore more intense). Note that if you choose the second solution, you may find the same addiction concerns after a while... I hope this feedback will help you to better understand the origin of your problem and I'll see you soon!

We're sorry that our fragrance doesn't match your taste Christine, but thank you for having the curiosity to test it! The ippi patchouli eau de parfum is quite a powerful scent indeed, containing a bit of musk in the base note to set the formula together, but it is indeed the patchouli (Indonesian patchouli essence to be precise) that is highlighted in this fragrance, especially its woody and earthy facets. The beauty of Perfume lies in the fact that we can all perceive the same fragrance differently, and perceive certain notes more than others. Maybe ippi patchouli CLAIR with its citrusy top note and its gourmand touch of praline in the base note would suit you better, don't hesitate to tell us if you have the opportunity to try it... Have a nice day and see you soon I hope!

The packaging is superb, the flavors much less, too sweet and vanilla for my taste. I trusted the reviews which were quite good but I am very disappointed by the product, none of the flavors suits me.

We are also disappointed that you did not find what you were looking for in our Marie-Aubrey fragrances. In our collection, the only gourmand fragrance with sweet and vanilla notes is our Vanilla fragrance. Like tastes and colors, a perfume is subjective and everyone will make their own opinion, but we do not give up and hope to seduce you with our future creations! If you wish to take advantage of the discount code linked to the purchase of your first Discovery Pack, don't hesitate to share it with your friends and family if you have a perfumed gift to give for example... Thank you for having been curious enough to test our fragrances and I hope to see you soon!

I tested only 3 perfumes... For the moment, no favorite. The fragrances are pleasant, not very original however and especially have no hold.

Hello Pierre and thank you for your feedback. Before leaving such a radical opinion, we would have appreciated if you had taken the time to test our 13 samples, not only 3... Especially since in another review you seem to be delighted with your Discovery Pack. We are the first to apologize if you didn't fall in love with these first 3 perfumes we tested and we respect your opinion about their originality: the perfume evokes different feelings for everyone. As for their staying power, it depends on several factors: each skin is different and diffuses the same perfume for more or less time. It would also be interesting to know which perfumes you have tested exactly, because if some are made to be intense and leave a trail, others are designed to be discrete and confidential. Finally, I'll grant you that the "earmuffs" that our samples are equipped with do not distribute the perfume as well as a spray bottle, which can have an effect on the duration of the perfume depending on the quantity applied. If you are a lover of intense fragrances with powerful and long-lasting scents, don't hesitate to opt for our pure perfumes, which are even more concentrated in raw materials than our eaux de parfum. Thank you again for trying our fragrances and we look forward to discussing them with other curious noses... Have a nice day!

The magic did not work for me, perhaps I am too much in search of a perfume which alas is no longer made ... I like the warm powdery perfumes, despite the pack none was a favorite. I will not fail to make discover to my relatives the pack for which perhaps the blow of heart will be with the rdv. In any case I find that the proposal of the pack is just great, it avoids taking the risk of buying a bottle for which we would have no affinity ... Congratulations for your site and the discovery pack! Bonne continuation

We don't manage to seduce all noses and I'm sorry Marie, but thank you a thousand times for this interesting feedback, I sincerely hope you will find your happiness with our colleagues. I have just extended the duration of your discount code so that you can offer our perfumes to your loved ones at Christmas if they have been seduced by our fragrances! We'll even take care of the gift wrapping and for each order placed in December you'll receive a gift just for you to discover on our website... Happy Holidays and see you soon I hope!

We clearly state on our website that our perfumes are mixed Laurent: some fragrances are more feminine or masculine than others, but it depends a lot on the taste and olfactory culture of each person! Did you know that in the Middle East, for example, many men wear very floral fragrances, whereas flowers are considered feminine in the West? Raw materials have no gender, so why try to put perfumes in boxes? As long as you like a perfume, it is made for you, forget the codes... We hope you enjoyed the quick delivery of your order and the little touches that were included... Have a nice day!

I am very disappointed with my perfume!!! I've been a patchouli fan for years but where is the patchouli here??? No resemblance.

Response from CARREMENT BELLE
As explained in our phone conversation today, it is very difficult to compare perfumes between them Corinne: your perception of the smell of patchouli may be quite different from others because you have your own references, and the perfumes you know do not only contain patchouli, but also other ingredients that give each perfume its own identity. Our ippi patchouli honors the earthy, woody, and resinous aspect of this ingredient in a rather raw scent, imagined in 1988 in honor of the hippie generation. If it doesn't suit you, we're very sorry, but be careful with the words you use because we can confirm that our ippi patchouli fragrance does contain patchouli: a natural patchouli from Indonesia to be precise. Maybe you will find more of the patchouli scent you like in our kilim or ippi patchouli clair fragrances, you can try them with our Discovery Pack if you are curious. It would also have been interesting to share your opinion on the quality of our service, to underline the speed of shipment of your order prepared and sent in less than an hour or the small attentions slipped into your package for example... Have a nice day anyway and see you soon!
