It's hard to pick a favorite Divine fragrance, but L'inspiratrice, her newest fragrance at the time I first tried it, is mine. I received another sample of this from a generous POLer, so it spurred me to re-try all the Divine fragrances.
L ' i n s p i r a t r i c e (the inspirer)
Notes: patchouli and the rose; ylang from the Comoros and bergamot from Calabria, peony and white musk, vetiver blended with vanilla and tonka bean.
What about the notes?
As you know, if you've been reading my blog, I like patchouli, and I have to be very careful with rose and musk. I love vetiver, bergamot, vanilla, and tonka bean. So, this fragrance seemed a good bet for me, if I could wear the rose.
How to describe this
...it is not like other patchouli and rose fragrances you might have tried.
What is the rose like?
It is not a dirty rose as some rose and patchouli fragrances are.
No, this is the rose in the midst of the garden with dew on its petals. But the addition of the other notes brings a sort of gourmand touch, without it being sweet. It is interesting and spell binding. It starts out with a bit of a punch, then quickly settles down to lovely time out of time moments.
Indeed, the house asks:
Will L ' i n s p i r a t r i c e cast a spell on you too ?
Yes it did. Tres cordialement. I even like the red bottle.
How about you?
Do you wear this one? or any other Divine fragrance? Do you have a fave?

where is divine sold in the U S. I have worn it for several years but usually wait till I go to London to purchase. Would like to look for in LA.
Thanks you
The website does not show a US seller now. It says: D I V I N E perfumes are now sold in London, Berlin, Hamburg and Munich.
I ordered mine from their website. I have sent them an email to inquire and will let you know when I hear back.
