Disappointed by the product
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
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 essence of Patchouli perfume does not last long it saddens me a lot
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
Thank you for having the curiosity to test our iconic ippi patchouli Sylvie! Most of our clients are satisfied with the staying power of the eau de parfum, and others look for even more intensity in the pure perfume which is even more concentrated in raw materials. But from one client to another, the hold of a perfume varies because we all have different skin types. On the other hand, you can perfume your clothes or your hair for example to enjoy your favorite perfume longer... Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any other questions 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.
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
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!

Serious site. I ordered ippi parchouli. I ordered ippi parchouli. Why did you order? Because I have been wearing parchouli reminiscence for 30 years and their formula has changed. I wanted to find this spirit patchouli 70's. I trusted the positive reviews about the olfactory creations of carrément belle. Unfortunately I felt invaded by a tuberose too dominant erasing any entity of patchouli, and offering only a spirit of solar perfume style monoï of' YR... whose holding was for my part only of one hour and half not more. It is a pleasant perfume but for a clientele adept at summer scents.
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
Thank you for your feedback Deborah. We are glad you appreciated the quality of our service but sorry that our fragrance was not what you were looking for. Perfume is fascinating because everyone interprets and feels it in a very personal way: tuberose is indeed present in our ippi patchouli fragrance but it is only a minor ingredient in its composition, as well as the sunny side mentioned which is discreet in this fragrance but much more present in its "clear" version (of which you received a sample). On the other hand, the main ingredient of this perfume is patchouli, with its earthy and woody facets, although it is quite possible that your olfactory sensitivity will perceive more other notes. As for the staying power of a perfume, it depends a lot on your skin. Yours must be greedy and drink the perfume quickly, because the ippi patchouli eau de parfum has been designed to leave a powerful trail behind your steps, during the whole day or almost. In any case, thank you again for your curiosity and your feedback, the whole team wishes you a wonderful holiday season!

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
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
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!

Bof perfume man woman hard to differentiate.
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
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'm very pleased with the delivery, but I'm disappointed with the eau de parfum alfred kafé, it doesn't last long.
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
Hello Yves, and thank you for your feedback! Some of our perfumes were designed to be resolutely confidential, but alfred kafé is nevertheless a fragrance with a very present trail. However, the staying power of a perfume also depends a lot on the skin of the person who wears it, that's why the same perfume can look so different from one skin to another! A little tip to enjoy the scent of alfred kafé longer: perfume your clothes, a scarf in winter or your hair for example! Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or other feedback... Have a nice day and see you soon!

The advisor is at the top! On the other hand the perfume is not to my taste. Good day to you.

I must admit that I am disappointed by the Musc eau de parfum. The smell is not powerful enough, it is hardly noticeable, much too discreet and imperceptible...
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
Hello Anne, we hope you are well and that you enjoyed the surprise gift included in your last order? You have been ordering ippi patchouli and ippi patchouli clair for years, which are perfumes designed to be powerful and to leave a trail behind your steps. Musk, on the other hand, is designed to be intimate, as indicated in the details of its notes on our site. It is a discreet perfume, for those who do not wish to leave a trail behind them. It is true that some skin types drink up perfumes faster than others, and this may be the case for you, but our many customers who have been addicted to this perfume since the late 1980s will surely not share your opinion when you say that it is "imperceptible".
However, we recommend using it in your hair or on your clothes to enjoy its scent longer than on your skin, and it's a fragrance that blends divinely with ippi patchouli (start with a few sprays of ippi patchouli, then spray musk a few seconds later). We remain available if you have any further questions and wish you a nice day!

I bought the samples. They all smell great, but the smell doesn't last
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
After reading your feedback, it was an emotional lift Pascale! First of all, we are delighted to read that you like our perfumes, and as for their staying power, it's hard to say that they don't hold up: our fragrances are eaux de parfum, which means that they contain a fairly high concentration of perfume that has allowed them to seduce thousands of noses for over 30 years. On the other hand, several elements can explain this impression:
- Some fragrances are designed to be powerful and leave a trail behind you (e.g. ippi patchouli, kilim, so, vanilla, 555 or even label rose) and others are created with the intention of making intimate fragrances, for those who prefer discreet scents (musk, original musk or alõ for example).
- The other very important factor is your skin: each skin is different and will "drink" a perfume more or less quickly. If this is your case, we recommend perfuming your hair or your clothes for example, on which the perfume will last longer.
- Finally, the format of our samples, which are equipped with an ear bud and not a spray bottle, may explain this feeling. The spray bottle makes it easier to dose and distribute the fragrance on the skin, improving the staying power of the fragrance.
If you are reassured by these explanations, don't forget to take advantage of your 15€ discount code before it expires for the purchase of an eau de parfum or a pure perfume (even more concentrated than the eau de parfum, therefore more intense and powerful) on our site! We remain available if you have any other questions and wish you a nice day...

Before buying I asked for advice. I am looking for a perfume similar to Ambre sultan by Serge Luthens. I was advised So which could probably be mixed! I was disappointed when I opened and tried this perfume which for me is very feminine!
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
I remember well our conversation Raphaël and I'm sorry you find SO too feminine for your taste. As explained in the chat SO is worn by both men and women among our customers, but it is true that perfume is very subjective and we don't always have the same definition of gender. Perhaps you should have ordered our Discovery Pack first, but I'm at least reassured that you seem to like the musk eau de parfum that you also ordered. Do not hesitate to mix these two fragrances which go very well together and will perhaps be more masculine to your taste once combined... Nice evening and see you soon I hope! Maxime

I am disappointed by the ippy patchouli perfume, too strong a scent for my taste, and I have trouble finding the patchouli ... the sample of ippy patchoul clair would suit me a little better. I don't like Enkor at all, neither in perfume nor in incense, but I like So a lot. Sincerely Corine
Answer from CARREMENT BELLE :
We are sorry to read that it was not love at first sight with ippi patchouli. I can confirm that the patchouli is indeed present, in a natural form and coming from Indonesia. If the eau de parfum is too intense for your taste, feel free to spray (in moderation) your clothes or above you for example to create a mist that will delicately perfume you. We are delighted to see that our SO incense will have seduced you with its amber scent!
