Answer:
I basically said I wanted perfume to impart a sense of well-being. When asked about my fashion tastes, I merely replied that I was somewhat eclectic, which is a bit of a euphemism, what the hell, since my clothing $$ are pretty much spent on scent.

Answer:
I tried Le Parfum de Therese but it doesn't work on me (didn't get it as one of their recommendations though - I was recommended L'Eau d'Hiver and later bought a FB - it's gorgeous).

Answer:
Noir Epices sounds the most appetising to me - let me know what you think!
I've just done the quiz myself. Maybe I'll have some luck too.

Answer:
Just finished the quiz.Hope I'm "chosen"

Got an e-mail today,and it seems they wanna send me a sample of Musc Ravangeur....

Answer:
Thank you to the very helpful staff at Frederic Malle, Helene and Tiphaine! I did the test on the Frederic Malle website a couple of weeks ago and today I received two samples from them of the scents they recommended for me, L'eau d'hiver and En Passant. I had described two scents for the test: one to be seductive, the other to encapsulate a sense of freedom - something which is very important to me. L'eau d'hiver works for both purposes with soft, honeyed notes which are so pure and uncluttered. Bulgari Pour Femme has a similar kind of sweetness on my skin, although not as delicate. En Passant is the first scent I have ever loved the top notes of !!! I am not very clear on describing them but I think I get lilac straight away. There is a freshness and clarity to En Passant which, to me, makes it perfect for wearing outdoors: I am thinking spring/summer walking in the countryside on a dry, sunny day. I adore the lilac and wheat notes in En Passant! Both fragrances are beautiful pure scents. L'eau d'hiver has better lasting power on my skin but I think I love them both just now. Am still curious about Lipstick Rose. Can anyone suggest whether or not they think I would like this one based on my wardrobe and what I have posted here?

Answer:
Hi, I'm new and have been lurking while I'm learning about fragrances. I don't yet feel qualified to offer technical reviews but I also received samples today and am very excited.
I filled out the questionnaire on 2/6 and today Une Rose and Noir Epices arrived.
I was thrilled they picked Une Rose for me because finding the perfect rose scent is what led me to BN. I'm not sure this is it. I loved it straight out of the bottle, that heady rose is what I'm looking for but almost immediately the earthiness kicked in. I wasn't crazy about that but I didn't hate it either. 7hrs. later it's down to a nice, light rose scent. I'm not sure that I would buy it. My search for the perfect rose will continue, starting with my rose sampler pack which Dragonfly Scent Me mailed out today
I love Noir Epices. It's a little more masculine than I generally wear but it works well with my chemistry. I've been having trouble with things turning very sweet on me and this one doesn't. This is one I would consider buying but Coco edp is still my favorite for this type of fragrance.
Overall, I'm very happy with what I received and the wonderful customer service at Frederic Malle. Thanks Tiphaine!

Answer:
I answered their quiz too and all I got was an email asking me to request for samples from Barneys New York.

Answer:
I did the quiz, not knowing I would receive samples of Carnal Flower and Noir Epices. I just received tem today, it took one month. I'm very excited. My first impression is I like Noir Epices better, Carnal Flower, which I want to love, reminds me of something my mother used to wear 30 years ago, very much gardenia flower smelling, nice though.
