I absolutely love this Or edition because I tried the original before and found it too potent. As soon as I could, I grabbed it—there was only one box left at the perfumerie. For me, the opening is very clear with bergamot and peach, followed by jasmine and a soft rose, closing with a clean woody musk base. It’s less complex than the original, but it has just enough to stay true to its essence. It’s an elegant, refined, and classic scent, perfect for spring and autumn. It’s a subtle, warm, and intoxicating aroma that doesn’t get tiring or annoying. I was looking for something fresh for formal occasions like meetings or events, and this is perfect. The trail is moderate and lasts about 4 hours, but fragrances barely last on my skin anyway, so I’m satisfied and don’t mind reapplying. It’s a 60ml EDP for 30 euros. As always, test it first, but I wouldn’t even hesitate… Simply enchanting, warm, very feminine, and beautiful. The bottle is a little jewel.
