I actually found this fragrance to give off a young women's vibe. Even though its over 100 years old, it still captures the essence of youth. I totally disagree with everyone who puts this down as a old women's fragrance. But hey, perception is everything.

Bubbling, sweet opening, then... very, very average, TOO sweet and stuck-in-the-back-of-your-throat cloying floral - and although it's definitely a Guerlain, it's my least favourite. The scent lasts for ages too, which is unfortunate if you don't like it.

(By the way, the original scent and current one are completely different fragrances and should probably have a separate listings).

As a parfum to wear, I would not pick this. It is not offensive, or overly powdery, but there is something about it that does not go well with me. The almond is very easily noticeable along with another strong scent (mimosa, maybe?). I agree with rubyred, "classic & refined can also be boring and unadventurous".

Not the best one this house has made, but still good. A little goes a very long way.

I found this frag way too ordinary, old fashioned and STRONGLY perfumey. I first sniffed it on a tissue and didn't like it. Then I tested it on my wrist and still didn't like it. Something (but I don't know what) in it offends my nose.... The only plus is it's staying power; it lasted well over 12 hours on me.

I used to love this one. I still like it but I'm not in love with it. Its very distinct, not easily mistaken for something else, and for me I always picture a champagne bottle when I smell/use it.
