Charming, comforting, pleasant... how many 'nice' adjectives describe this unprepossessing scent. Bain de Caron is in no way impressive or striking to my nose, rather having a likable, feel-good quality that should not be dismissed. Somehow this is EXACTLY the sort of scent I would mist on the hair of a child just fresh from the bath. Boy or girl! Bain has a creaminess that mimics the best of triple milled bath soaps, yet the balsamic touch keeps it from every becoming sharp or soapy. If scents were rated solely on comfort quality, this would be a 10. Highly recommended for that characteristic alone. Look elsewhere for earth shattering beauty or flair. The vanilla puddings of the fragrance world have their part to play too! :D
After reading Luca Turin's review slamming the modern formulation as a "metallic flower", I got a hold of a vintage 1961 bottle of this fragrance. Comparing it to the current version, it's less sweet (but still pretty sweet) and richer and smoother. It's different, but not very different. They still smell alike - it's not like it's been warped into something unrecognizable or anything - I don't get LT's hate. The vintage "Bain de Champagne" is nice to have, but the modern version is perfectly fine too.
I've got a vintage version of that fragrance, yet called Royal Bain de Champagne. And that's what it really is - some good dry champagne made of ripe sun-warmed grapes with soft musk undertones...
I sampled it in dubai a week ago after reading reviews , and all i can say is that is a very different fragrance it last 24 hours at least even if u shower u can still smell it , i dont think i can wear these kind of frangrance ,, the lady offerd me the big bottle which looked like a beer bottle for half price but i wouldnt buy it ,, it's for bold people .. weird
I don't smell the 'precious vintage', i try the current version and this is Caron at its worst. I'm not saying this smell terrible, it has a pleasant dry down, just i was expecting a better scent.
