  I tried it without expecting anything and it actually made me laugh. Morgan is that mid-range French brand, like Don Algodón or Naf Naf but in a 2000s version—the typical label that pops up and rushes to expand with perfumes, watches, and cases. In the end, due to an inconsistent base, they only manage to blur the brand’s image and turn it into nothing. Years ago, back in 2003, they launched an unbearable reddish perfume, very on-trend at the time: intrusive, shrill, amber-heavy, and loud. That’s where my story with them ended. Recently, expecting to get a refund, I randomly grabbed a tester and, as expected, it looks scary—from a bottle that looks like it’s from Primark to a name that says nothing and clashes with the gold packaging. It’s a soulless product. I tried it hoping for another cotton-candy monstrosity with weird flavors like Repetto or Coach, and hey, well, it didn’t even make me blink. White is a dead-on impersonator of Marc Jacobs Daisy and Estée Lauder Pleasures, with hints of Valentina. As you might imagine: from Daisy, the violet and a cold, pleasant strawberry; from Pleasures, the rest of the clean floral, musky, and soapy notes; and from Valentina, flowers and strawberry without sweetness, paired with cold wood. That’s about it… green florals and musk, a feminine laundry-day vibe with overcharged cleanliness accords and a delicious woody-violet trail in the dry-down, where I sense it as unisex. It doesn’t discover anything or add much, but it’s pleasant enough to wear. P.S.: If you’re a user who knows no one and feels chosen with an exquisite palate, this will seem like trash. If you’re normal, without prejudice, looking for a good scent in this broad range for twenty or thirty euros, it’s worth it. P.S. II: It lasts longer than Daisy, which is worth noting since Jacobs barely lasts half a breath.
