Vocalise (1988)
by Maître Parfumeur et Gantier

Vocalise is quite a nice feminine fragrance—unassuming florals and solid fruit notes, but, as solid as the fruit accord is, it is not at all heady or aggressive. The accord is quite refined, possibly because the currents keep the fruitiness under control. It’s a pretty scent, feminine but not girly; comfortable, with a step toward elegance, without being stuffy or pretentious. It is not noticeably sweet to my nose, which alone separates it from the multitudes; it is a clean scent that is very enjoyable to be around in casual and professional environments. Linear, long lasting, and understated, Vocalise isn’t showy; it is tasteful and appropriate for quiet, perhaps introspective occasions—and also, I guess, for singing.

Fruity floral with winegum aspects. Nice if you like fruity florals and have the snobbery to go to niche for that.

Depending on how pretty a girl is, I'd hit Vocalises.

Vocalise is a nice fruity/floral fragrance by MPG. It’s a well blended; the fruit never really overpowers the floral notes and vice versa. With that being said, it’s a little watery and slightly timid. It doesn’t evolve much, and doesn’t really compare to most other fruity/floral fragrances in the MPG line.
