I wear this one at night when I have someplace fancy to go to. Yes, the P's have the tub with jets, and the body wash squirted into the water then turn the jets heaven!!!!! Then the body lotion. For the day or super hot weather I wear Coco Mademoiselle.  
Can't remember trying CM. I'm in the mood for something lighter that what I'm using.
When I'd sprayed coco noir on the card it lasted for weeks! Sadly my sample vial has average to poor longevity on me :/
I tried my sample again last night and it didn't last very long. It's a nice scent though.

I wanted a change recently and started using TF Velvet Orchid for nights and Acqua di Gioia for work. I used to use a lot of Burberry, Dolce and Gabbana LB and a Vera Wang. Before that I used Hilary Duff With Love and VS Very Sexy 2 which I loved. Scent is so personal, someone can love certain fragrances and others just despise it. I don't like Alien and Flowerbomb and they're really popular with a lot of people. I like free perfume samples so I can figure out what I like without even leaving home lol

It doesn't smell 'noir' like how I wish it would - to be a dark and heady scent like a Tom ford. To me it kind of smells like coco mademoiselle mixed with chance!? Dunno if anyone else gets that!?

That Velvet Orchid is a funny one. I don't like love how it smells in the sample container or when I first spray it on, but the undertones somehow work really well with my body chemistry after about an hour.

Edited.

Perfume and body chemistry can be so weird! I remember getting a sample card from Sephora and smelling the heck out of it lol There was a scent I loved and five out of six people complimented me on it and the sixth couldn't stand it :p

Truer words have never been spoken AWS. I find TF Velvet Orchid too strong---it annoys me, but if I were to
drown I'd want to drown in a vat of TF Jasmine Rouge

Go figure!!!

I'm expecting Guerlain Aqua Allegoria, Teazzurra to arrive tomorrow. I had a sample and went nuts for it at first
whiff!!

Yes. It annoys my senses!!! I was surprised that I disliked it because it seemed to be all the rage----I thought I
was abnormal or something!

I can understand what you mean. I think it's because it's so musky. I love the underlying tones - the surface ones not so much. The great thing about it though, for ppl who like it, that is, is that it lassttttssss!

I have to try that Jasmine Rouge you like!

LOL! Five out of six is still an A+ lol. People seem to like Lancome's La Vie Est Belle on me - which is a good thing because I like it on me too lol.
