PRISM Geminesse EDP Spray, 100 ml

Product Information

I can’t scent my linen cupboard with sandalwood soap (the really strong stuff you get from Indian grocers) because my son complains so much. Geminesse features notes that are still used in today’s fragrances, which include notes of leather, vetiver, musk, oakmoss, jasmine, amber, muguet, ylang-ylang, citruses, rose and tuberose. I get a leather note from both de la Rentas, particularly Esprit d’Oscar, though it’s not listed in the notes for either.

As stated quite a few times before, we really pay a lot of attention to the feedback we receive from our community members. I’m curious about these rereleases from Prism Parfums and appreciate your taking the time to review them, even if I haven’t smelled the originals. You can smell them often as soon as you apply the fragrance and their scent lingers around you and changes as time goes on. Violet and heliotrope are, however, so I’m not sure if I’m smelling leather or if it’s facets of the violet translating as such. You’ve got me curious about Geminesse and Tigress; Lanvin Scandal will also go on my leathers-to-try list.Except that I’m planning to head off to the den to watch “The Sting” with my teenage/college age offspring, in front of a roaring fire, and two of the three of them despise Jolie Madame. I did really like Cuir de Lancôme for a time, but overapplied and overwore it so have to build up an “absence makes the heart grow fonder” appreciation again. OB frequently does that soapy thing on me, and I’m certain I wouldn’t enjoy soapy saddles on my wrist. There’s something about floral delicacy playing against rough, salty leather, and even better when the leather is softened by moss. Geminesse by max factor, launched in 1974, provides a retro beachy scent you can't find on the market today.

The powdery dry down is still there and it has a certain retro nostalgia that other floral leathers like Kelly Caleche do not have. And, by purchasing perfumes over our platform, you are helping us earn a small percentage of your purchase.But it was in some ways a product of the time, nascent 1970's feminism - independence and MTM and the man tailored suit - taken over by the full-blown oriental siren song of the 1980's and the attendant soutache, and Dynasty-esque shoulder pads.
