In my opinion, the reformulation modernized the scent without diminishing it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn me, it opens with a great shot of cool, sharp aldehydes. They link to a subtle metallic facet of green galbanum that’s bracing and fresh, creating a crisp edge that gives Rive Gauche a sense of excitement. It’s supported by sparkling bergamot and bright, citrusy lemon. Sweet, floral honeysuckle comes through alongside a note of soft, sweet peach. As it moves to the heart, a lush, opulent note of rose appears and softens the aldehydes. Musty geranium comes forward, bolstering the rose and amping up the floral aspect of the scent, while\u003cspan class=\"apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ecreamy ylang-ylang\u003cspan class=\"apple-converted-space\"\u003e and subtle hints of jasmine, powdery iris, magnolia, gardenia, and lily-of-the-valley bloom quietly in the background.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e The aldehydes and florals interweave beautifully—so beautifully that I could live here all day, but I don’t want to miss a thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe aldehydes carry on right through to the aromatic woody base of vetiver, oakmoss, balsam wood, and musk. This rich foundation is anchored and warmed by creamy sandalwood, amber, and a soft touch of tonka bean so that the dry-down is smooth, sophisticated, and chic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ets cool, floral scent with a metallic tang makes Rive Gauche a one-of-a-kind fragrance that speaks to the free-spirited, independent, Parisian woman.
