Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
I’d buy it again: First used it in 2000, bought it because my mom wanted to help an Oriflame seller, but ended up loving it. Super fresh, summery, beachy attitude, clean aquatic scent with no fuss. Opens citrusy and sweet, then lavender, absinthe, and cloves add a subtle but effective aromatic touch. Cedar and patchouli base anchor it on the skin, though nothing extraordinary. Very youthful and projects energy; feels like Oriflame tried to copy part of Tommy Hilfiger’s DNA. The flaw is the longevity: doesn’t last, needs constant reapplication, but the scent and price are worth it. Spray rating: 8-12. Fixative: 7. Sillage: Light. Intensity: Light. Awards: Great scent for the price.
