Another gem from Olympic Orchids that I got to try. It’s a floral heavily focused on rose, with a chypre and aldehydic base that gives it a green, fresh touch. It’s also quite spicy with a hint of heat. There’s a certain synthetic nuance that doesn’t make me feel comfortable wearing it. Performance is excellent—it lasts forever with amazing projection in the first few hours. If you’re looking for a different kind of rose scent, citrusy and perfect for daily wear, this is a great option. Scent: 7 Longevity: 9 Projection: 8.5 Value: 7 Versatility: 9 Uniqueness: 8 Overall: 8
