* Field Notes starts with a juicy orange blossom and sweet patchouli.
* Although this is listed as a feminine, I definitely can see guys wearing it. It reminds me of the better Chanel masculine fragrances – like a sweet cologne.
* The orange blossom stays present throughout the fragrance. It starts to get a little soapy when the sweet patchouli is joined by tobacco and leather.
* Once it gets past this phase, Field Notes is different every time I wear it. Sometimes I get wood and amber with orange blossom in the base. Other times I get more tobacco with a touch of tonka.
Summary: Field Notes From Paris is an orange blossom fragrance that is full-bodied but not overpowering. This would be a great office scent as it feels like a classic masculine with a modern twist. It lasts through the work day and the base notes will go on into the evening. This would make a great gift for college graduation (or even father’s day). It’s very wearable and a bit unique – just like the person you would probably be buying it for.

Field Notes From Paris is my favorite perfume from the line. I agree with your description of it but wanted to add that those base notes will not only gowell into the evening but might also survive a cold water wash in your washing machine (haven’t tested with a dry cleaning though).
Wow.. I didn’t realize the longevity was so strong. Ineke was such a sweet person when I met her at Elements. Which of her fragrances from the sample pack do you recommend that I test next?
Sorry it took me so long to come back and reply: usually I do it within a week.
My second favorite in the original line is E. But all other letters are not bad, in my opinion, for that price range. I can’t do G though – it doesn’t play nice on my skin.
