This Bandit got away
Wish I could say it was a scent for me but it didn't have much impact.
Created in 1944 and relaunched in 1999, Bandit is a classic chypre floral scent that appeals to most everyone. A deep woody, leathery scent with notes of orange, tuberose, jasmine, rose, leather, and woods. Bandit is an eau de parfum, EDP, and was created by Germaine Cellier.
Bandit is one of fragrances from the last 100 years that Roja Dove believes to be the true classics of their decade. Click here to see that sampler.

I'd been reading reviews of Bandit for a few months before I ordered a sample. I was drawn to the idea of a "bad girl" scent, but my experience of it is that it's quite feminine. It's my girliest scent. Maybe that's because it's a classic, maybe it's because I tend toward unisex or masculine scent personally. But I do like it, quite a bit. It grows on me more each time I wear it, and I keep getting lovely comments when I do.

With me, fragrance is very much an overwhelming passion of love and smell. One whiff speaks volumes; and Bandit is the bullhorn of my inner bad girl. So sexy, self-assured and dripping with confidence. A composition of aromatic earthiness with foggy green and wood that I can't quite grasp. Just like I love to be, hard to get and impossible to understand.
I never thought I'd find another fragrance that I loved as much as Fracas... until I dabbed on Bandit. Another vintage scent from Robert Piguet, Bandit is my "other" favorite fragrance.
