  Bought it blindly based on English reviews calling it ‘fresh’ and ‘light’ without being citrusy. I was intrigued that, lacking aquatic or citrus notes (the usual fresh stuff), it used ‘heavy’ ingredients like iris, jasmine, amber, patchouli, and cedar. How could that be fresh? I tried it and common sense won: neither fresh nor anything. It’s intense and green from the coriander, which is way too noticeable on my skin. The rose is very timid, the iris gives that typical talc-like smell, then amber and cedar take over. Longevity is average (4-6 hours) and the sillage is moderate. I bought it in winter and hated it; it felt dry and bitter. I let it sit until today, with heat, and it improved: the coriander green is more pleasant and it’s not so bitter anymore. It’s still too dry for my taste, but it’s wearable now. Not bad, not a masterpiece, but if you like coriander and don’t want something citrusy for summer, it might work. Just don’t expect it to be light, soft, or skin-scented.
