Wearing Soie Malaquais by Dries van Noten

So stressed and distracted that I forgot to put on perfume this morning 🙃 anyway I’m FINALLY getting around to trying this decant. First impressions: smooth and nutty with a noticeable cocoa note. A bit sweet, a bit powdery. I was hoping the rose would be more prominent. Not very “me” but it’s nice! Smells like a cool girl who works in business in a big city and has a good skincare routine

Wore it on August 26, 2026

    I didn’t get much of the rose to start off with either; now that I’ve had my decant for over a year, I can say I started smelling it a lot more ☺️ Maybe it’s my brain tricking me 😅 It’s a beautiful scent! Enjoy the scent bubble, and I hope it helps decompress from the stress 🫶🏼

      Ahh good to know, I’ll keep searching for the rose as I continue to wear it 😊 I have a feeling my fiancé is going to love this one. Thank you 🫶 it’s definitely making me feel like I have my life more together than I do haha

      I feel the same when I wear it; it just feels so elegant

    I hate not remembering to put on perfume, I feel naked 😶😂 how do you rate this one? Is an everyday scent or more for special occasions? Ps. Hope you get to relax once you get home! You deserve it

      Thank you! I had a Drs appointment so I got to go home early thankfully. Currently relaxing with one cat on my lap and the other curled up next to me ☺️ For me personally this one is a bit too elegant for everyday wear. But someone more chic could definitely wear this as a signature scent! Obligatory note that this is just my general impression; I think anyone can wear whatever they want!
