Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It’s a fantastic extract with great longevity and a subtle yet noticeable sillage. It feels richer in honey and iris than the EDP, creating a sweet, powdery scent that’s very pleasant. It’s fresh, not stiff, and works well for going out with friends, dinners, or even to work in an elegant way. It opens with prominent magnolia and lemon notes, then settles into a powdery blend of iris, amber, and honey. The performance is top-notch (it’s an extract); one drop lasts all day. Very feminine, youthful, and romantic. Note: better in cool weather; in heat, it can turn into wilted flowers on my acidic skin. A well-crafted, dreamy creation from Guerlain.
