At first, the pomegranate and kiwi caught my attention, making me think it would be something original. It’s a fruity musk scent: sparkling tangerine with the sweetness of pomegranate and the freshness of kiwi. Then comes the musky nectarine, giving it a creamy, soft feel. It’s sweet, soft, delicate, cheerful, and youthful. Very subtle, it’s a shame that despite being so delicious, it doesn’t last long. Perfect for spring and summer. I love Angel Schelesser perfumes because they are fine and elegant, minimalist and simple. The bottle is elegant and chic. The only downside is its weak longevity.

Basically, it’s a creamy kiwi, super soft, with a subtle floral note that I think comes from the sweet pea, because it doesn’t smell like rose. I think it’s a fragrance that wouldn’t offend anyone’s nose. I’d love to wear it for sports activities.
Just smelled it at the store where I always shop (and where I keep the sample strips), and… it’s absolutely delicious! It’s fruity and light, reminding me of Escada’s Islands collection. Truly a treat!
