It’s a chameleon; its performance depends heavily on external factors.

The first time I tested it on a hot afternoon, it seemed like a classic, sober floral scent, far from current trends. On a fresh day, the aldehydes stood out, and it turned soapy; it smelled of lilies, narcissus, and jasmine, reminding me of old times in my childhood garden. Although the website says it has fruity notes, I didn’t detect them that day. Weeks later, upon receiving it, it smelled different: the floral accord and aldehydes remained, but now I do detect the underlying fruity notes, which give it a subtle sweetness. In the heart, it becomes a bit cloying and turns into something soft that evokes tenderness and delicacy until it fades. Both its projection and longevity are modest; on me, it lasted about 5 hours, with the last two hours staying close to the skin. I suppose I’ll appreciate it more in cold weather, as I think it allows year-round use. In my opinion, it’s predominantly feminine, timeless, and for daytime use. It’s a tranquil composition, a breath of fresh air with simple, unpretentious elegance and natural beauty; although obviously not for every occasion or taste. I don’t like to assign an age range; I think one just needs to know how to wear it. If a young girl enjoys this type of fragrance, it will add a conservative, romantic scent with a certain tenderness on the right skin. It would be like a modern version of a classic scent that doesn’t follow trends. Suggestion: don’t let the opening aldehydes fool you; it’s not linear, it evolves.
