Fille en Aiguilles from Serge Lutens reminds me of a rich, spiced fruit compote that is sweetly simmering on the stove, in a snow covered chalet on the longest, darkest night of the year. The sun has just gone down and the the door bangs open; a gust of icy wind tears through carrying the briefest scent of pine needles; guest are stamping their feet and blowing on their hands, everyone has red noses and chilled ears and they are gathering close to a hearth where a warm glow lights their faces. The sweet, spicy concoction on the stove has evaporated so there is no longer a syrupy fragrance, but instead the slightly smoky remains, the very essence of the fruit. To me Fille En Aiguilles smells of spiced fruit compote incense perfuming the close quarters and warming bodies, and light and memories of a cold night and beloved friends who warm your heart.
I'll keep this simple. I like this. I concur with the majority of positive reviews on this scent it's good and conjures up some cosy christmasy imagery. Only a minor criticism of SL on the whole they're fairly weak and disappear completely from my skin within a few hours but they're still very well put together.
Nice but remarkably similar to way cheaper Serge Lutens scents such as Parole d'Eau. I mean, it is different, but it's not giving me anything that seems worth the extortionate price.
