  Writing this review without having tried it before, but I just picked it up on clearance at The Body Shop since they’re discontinuing the line and I’m not sure how long it will last. The ‘Elixirs of Nature’ line has always caught my eye, but at around 40 euros for 50ml, I thought it was pricey. I happened to walk into my local store and found them for just 12 euros—I simply couldn’t resist. I liked all of them, but went with this one for its versatility. It’s nothing groundbreaking: a luminous, warm, and sunny white floral, perfect for spring/summer. It opens with citrus and grapefruit, which fades quickly to give way to the sweetness of coconut and tiare, balancing the sparkle with warmth. To me, it’s fresh, lightly sweet, clean, and not overpowering; it’s not that typical creamy, dense perfume. It reminds me of an evening summer breeze after the heat. The bottle is gorgeous: heavy glass with engraving, a wooden cap, and a recycled box. The atomizer works well. It’s intimate, with a light projection and lasts 4-5 hours on skin. Perfect for daily wear in spring/summer or jobs that require non-intrusive scents. It could be unisex, but it leans more feminine. Overall, I like it. At the original price, I never would have bought it (I have similar ones and the performance isn’t top-tier), but at this price, there was no thinking about it. Out of the 5 perfumes in the collection, I liked all of them, especially this one, Bowhanti (spiced woody, often compared to Serge Lutens’ Feminité du Bois), and Nigritella (powdery floral vanilla).
