Fruits Sauvages by Comptoir sud pacifique?

"liz" <liz...@aol.com>
I believe fruits sauvages has been renamed Mora Bella..Does anyone
know if it still smells the same or did they reformulate it to go along
with the new name? I used to love fruits sauvages and I have a
hankering to buy some again but I want to make sure the formula is the
same.Thanks!

Hi.
I am a huge Fruits Sauvages/Mora Bella fan.
From what I can tell, the formulation is not exactly the same. IMHO
Mora Bella is slightly more berry, slightly less citrusy – but still
very similar to FS and "in the same spirit". Mora Bella is much more
similar to FS than, say, Trish McEvoy#9, L'Artisan Mure et Musc or any
other berry+musc scents I have tried, which are mentioned as FS
"smell–alikes", but don't cut it for me.
With the plus that Mora Bella lasts a lot longer on my skin than FS,
and stays true to the scent.
So, although reformulated, I highly recommend Mora Bella!!

Nice to see you posting Teresa! I will wear your namesake today,
in your honor. I agree, it smells the same to me.

Thanks for your reply.. While I also enjoy Mure et Musc I can't
imagine anyone thinking that it smells at all like Fruit sauvages!To my
nose mure et musc is much,much less sweet .I would almost describe it
as "dry".
