Question:
I know. My EDT from last summer lists only treemoss, no oakmoss. There are some citrus topnotes.
I am going to post a comparison of the old and new formulations later today.
I have to warn you, it is a "read it and weep" posting.

Answer:
Please! Say it isn't so!

Answer:
Condolences to all Mitsouko wearers.
I'd like to know "when" reformulated bottles started hitting the shelves. Been following the debate here and my bottle of EdT is, so far I know, new, but I would not know "when" is the cut-off for old vs. new formula. Elf said the EdT had been "most mutilated." That's the one I have and well, it's been hard to get to know, let me leave it at that.
Sad news. I agree that all these reformulations feel very sad, as if the soul of perfumery is being steadily stripped away, being replaced with something else that may "look" the same or even "work" the same but it just doesn't feel the same. Almost like our entire society and culture

Answer:
More political correctness gone wild! When it comes to food, you hear nature knows best...but with fragrance synthetics are safer? and none is the best of all?
Flapadoodle to this!
Addendum: Now Smell This linked to Anya McCoy's blog and I was stunned by the ingredients limited by the new inane rules...I had no idea that rose absolute and carnation absolute joined oakmoss as a threat to mankind!!
Unbelievable! Few perfumes are safe, it seems. Mitsouko today, Joy, No.5, and heaven knows what tomorrow.

Answer:

I wish one could get the good old stuff (on prescription, if needed) at the pharmacy, with a note inside the box: WARNING! Contains oakmoss.

I hope this works...the list is dreadful I urge everyone to sign that petition linked to in the article. Beyond a perfumery issue, this really IS a consumer rights issue. Consumers should be allowed to choose for themselves and this is about as forceful on assault on our ability to choose what we purchase/use as I can remember! The analogy to peanuts is a great one. Why are peanuts exempted but oakmoss is not? I would really like to understand the logic behind that one.

I'm eating a peanut now in protest! Grrrr!

Answer:
Yes, another perfume lover on another forum had received an email from Guerlain some while ago that confirmed that Guerlain is conforming to the regulations of IFRA and EU.(they put it like this)
Now.....to bring you all even more down........
That ALSO means a reformulation of Vol de Nuit and for different reasons Jicky.
It all reads as a ploy to spread the use of aromachemicals (synthetics) into production more agressively.
