    I can’t believe there are no reviews for this gem. You can definitely smell the red pepper and white flowers, with a fresh touch of pear and citrus. I bought it blind and I’m absolutely thrilled. It works amazingly well for me. I don’t know how it will hold up in summer (I’ll let you know!), but right now in December in Murcia, it’s perfect. I’d define it as sparkling, full of energy and positivity. It doesn’t have a massive trail, but you can definitely smell it for about 4 hours. It’s not for everyone. If it matches your vibe (active, positive, cheerful), this could be your definitive perfume.
