   |  This is discontinued? I just got a sample of Fete d'Hiver and one of Bois d'Hiver and they seem quite different to me... BdH is much more woody and dry, and less rich and sweet (although FdH is not particularly sweet). Anyway, I love Fete d'Hiver! I couldn't figure out what was in it just from smelling it, since it is very well blended,and was surprised to find that it's a rose and incense scent, since I usually don't care for rose. I entered a draw to win a travel roll-on of this when I met Ayala and I won, yay, lucky me! It's my favorite of the ones I've sampled so far, and the longevity and coherence are quite good for a natural perfume.14 July 2009 |
  | This is a lovely scent. Ayala has discontinued this and developed a slightly different scent called Bois d’Hiver. I have a sample of FdH and I can compare it to the newer BdH. I find FdH to be sharper, a bit drier. It is a slightly simpler scent, and that gives it an airy, somewhat translucent quality in comparison to the more complex and dense BdH. The pine is a bit more noticeable here, and I can also pick out the florals more. Nutmeg and allspice combine with the orange to give a very pleasant “Christmas spice” chord. This seems a bit woodsier, with a very nice sandalwood note. The incense has a lower profile than in BdH. The drydown of the two scents is similar. 08 May 2008 |
  | I love this one. The scent of pine and smoke and frankincense. I think it rivals Rich Hippie's Groovy, has greater lasting power. A side by side comparison is in order. 20 December 2007 |
  | Delightful, versatile fragrance consisting of a balanced mixture of flowers, a touch of citrus, and well-chosen spices on an amber and sandalwood base. Appealing as both a floral and an Oriental perfume. Natural florals make it soft and wearable. Plus, the spices increase the projection and longevity. I especially enjoy the allspice, which carries a seasonal, wintery association. More jolly than Nuit de Noel. 21 October 2006 |
 | Smooth melange of white flowers on a woodsy resinous base; warm and bright. 01 August 2006 |
