Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
My mom noticed it immediately, and she absolutely loved it. I’m going to gift it to her since I don’t wear it myself. It smells like a bouquet of flowers with a hint of vanilla—very floral overall.
Unlike other Victoria’s Secret scents, this one isn’t youthful; it’s elegant and deep, not artificial at all. I think it’s perfect for special occasions. You can detect plum and white flowers, and while it’s fruity, it feels made for a confident, sensual woman. Keep in mind it could work for anyone. The longevity is excellent. If you see it, don’t hesitate to buy it. It’s a fantastic fragrance.
