I have all of the versions of No5, along with the cream, lotion and bath. I prefer different combinations depending upon the season and my mood. I have found the Eau de Toilette is especially lovely for the cooler months when combined with the body cream. This version provides a warm and cozy elegant feeling with very good staying power, as the bourbon vanilla finish is more pronounced on this one. It provides a 'quiet', yet noticeable feminine presence throughout the day.
I would say this version, the eau de toilette, smells slightly woodier than the EDP, making it younger and more wearable. Any age could successfully wear this. Little bit floral, little bit powdery, little bit woody, super classy. Love this.
