Etude House Princess Etoinette Eau De Toilette

I could not stop gaping when I clapped my eyes on the beautiful pieces from the new Etude House Princess Etoinette collection. It is such a feast for the senses. My review marathon kicks off with the product that made center stage - Eau de Toilette!


Name: Etude House 에뛰드하우스 Princess Etoinette 프린세스 에튀아네뜨 Eau de Toilette 오드토일렛
Price: ₩ 25,000 for 30 ml
Made in: Korea

The Fragrance
Apparently my nose is not in an optimum condition. It mislead me into thinking that lychee was one of the notes whenever I puffed away. The scent starts out happy and fun-loving, but turns warm and inviting once the peony note is unleashed.

At a glance:-
◆ Top notes: Pink Pepper, Bergamot, Pear, Raspberry
◆ Heart notes: Peony, Rose, Jasmine, Muguet
◆ Base notes: Cedarwood, Sandalwood, Musk


The Flacon
The bottle has a puffer (adorned with lace) that transported me to the Victorian era for a bit. Do correct me if they were not the rage back then. Haha!



The Collection
Princess Etoinette Eau de Toilette along with the rest of the line up are available at Etude House stores worldwide (13 countries and counting!) and online from etudehouse.com:-
◆ Moon Flower Perfumed Candle ₩ 11,000
◆ All Over Powder ₩ 30,000
◆ Crystal Shine Lips ₩ 13,000
◆ Blooming Perfumed Hands ₩ 8,000
◆ Perfumed Hair Mist ₩ 8,000


The Composition
The full ingredient list for Princess Etoinette Eau de Toilette:-
Alcohol, Fragrance, Water, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate.

Youthful and feminine fragrance lovers, I think you have found your calling! And even if you do not find this scent to be pleasing, there is no denying that the bottle will make the perfect dressing table fodder.

Wow, I didn't know that Etude House had perfumes!

The name "Etoinette" is certainly a better play than the monstrous "Minajesty" of recent not to mention the bottle is really really pretty!
All the notes sound very promising as well. :)

Hi Denysia Yu! Etude House releases perfumes every so often to the delight of the fangirls!

Bijin Blair said...

Hey Lena L! Minajesty belongs in a horror movie. I don't know what they were thinking when they designed that particular flacon!

Ooh, this is such a pretty looking perfume! I love the puffer. I wish there was a shop here that I could physically smell it at... I'd love to try an Etude House perfume.

I love the pancaging so much ! I kinda afraid when it comes to change my perfume.lol
An maybe just my opinion but almost all etude perfume are fruit scents. My HG perfume is more in sweet,elegant scents i guess. But anyway, nice review !!

I'd seriously buy it for the packaging alone! Dressing table fodder for sure. This is such a gorgeous collection overall, is that a candle I see in the background?

Oh my my.. the packaging is so cute. Love it totally. I had know idea that Etude House had its range of perfumes too. Maybe I should try someday too. :)

Marxie said...

I have this too. The scent was too strong for me at first but I somehow have gotten used to it now. What I love the most about this perfume is the packaging. lol

Bijin Blair said...

Yes! And it comes in two variations - White Peony and Pink Rose.
