Got this as a gift, and hey, I’d never gift perfume without knowing someone’s taste first. I’m not into florals; something weird happens with my skin that makes everything smell like marigolds (or a cemetery) to everyone else. Here’s the deal: it smells divine in the bottle, but I stored it for half a year without using it because even a single drop on my clothes felt too heavy. But if you love florals, here’s the good news: it lasts forever and has an incredible trail.

Reminds me a bit of Paris Hilton’s Tease. It’s fresh, lasts about 6 hours (maybe a bit longer), and has a moderate trail. I absolutely love it.

A very warm scent where a sensual gardenia turns creamy with musk. A softer green apple completes this fragrance, perfect for spring and summer. The bottle is very elegant.
