Latest Reviews of Ma Dame

And the scent is a bitter, dusty, fruity-rose with a plastic lily, light-powdered with creamy musk. Even though it's not green there's a dark venomous quality to Ma Dame that makes it feel like a distant cousin of Envy.
A dry bitter floral, with the usual woman's body encased in a (glass) box - all sexiness constrained in straight lines - what's going on here?
Ma Dame could have been the ambience of a Gaultier runway; emaciated figures marching up and down shooting mean looks at the camera... It embraces the non-sexy, non-friendly feel of a fashion show.
But for a feminine scent - destined for the 'average' woman in the street - Ma Dame bends the codes in a drastic manner. It's daringly unsweet, not floral in the ordinary way; seething with discontent, the bitterness is more attuned to a bitchy teen than any 'Mrs' of the title.
So could it be a critique of the status quo?
It may be a coincidence, but when Ma Dame was released in 2009, the media were talking about Size Zero, the tiny clothes that women were told to wear in fashion shoots. This caused one model to become ill from crash dieting and so she teamed up with a Northern Irish politician to campaign against the practice, and to cut it all short, Size Zero has now been banned in many countries.
Could Ma Dame have been part of the critical mass that ended this practice?
Not only has Size Zero fallen by the wayside, Ma Dame has also disappeared. Which is no surprise really, but that's not to say it's been forgotten, prices on auction sites are about the same as for new perfume; there's still a healthy demand out there...

The bottle is damn cool.

Musk is the core of the base, with generic wood in the background.
I get moderate sillage, adequate projection and five hours of longevity. Pleasant in spring but nothing special. 2/5
