    Bought it on a blind buy for a deal and honestly, it’s amazing. It opens with a sparkling tropical fruit and citrus explosion, super delicious, with a sunscreen-like vibe reminiscent of monoi (not coconut) that evokes vacation and relaxation, instantly lifting my mood. In the mid-stage, apple becomes the undisputed star on my skin, echoing the signature of Nina before evolving into something very similar to Dolce & Gabbana’s Light Blue. For about 3 to 4 hours, it smells exactly like that, then softens into a fresh, skin-deep floral aroma. It doesn’t trail heavily or make a scene, but it’s perfect for warm weather, vacations, or spring with a relaxed outfit. It has a certain spirit reminiscent of Escada, like Rock in Rio, though not identical. I love the dry-down; that fruity harmony lasts 30 to 40 minutes before mutating into a luxurious version of Light Blue, perfect for those who love LB but can’t afford it, since LB doesn’t last as long. The purchase was worth it for the price and the decent longevity. In its full glory, it lasts about 6 to 7 hours, though 10 hours have passed since I showered and I can still smell it. Since there were no Spanish reviews, I hope I described my experience with this delicious, accessible gem well.
