100BON, freely translated 100 percent

I actually wanted to start this comment like this, because at first glance, you really get exactly what the scent promises. Here we have a very clear heliotrope with mimosa.
The opening is quite lush, so I deduct half a point because it’s almost a bit too much for me.
But then it takes a turn and becomes really pleasant with the sillage, and the longevity is already showing signs that it will be quite good. Especially, it clings to clothing, not quite as much on the skin.
Well, so the start is mimosa and heliotrope, absolutely sunny, slightly fresh-floral due to the mimosa (which has nothing bitter about it here), a light sweetness, nicely vanilla-like. Soon a little coconut-like note joins in, which doesn’t bother me here, on the contrary, it makes the scent even more like a sunscreen-powder scent. So the powdery aspect is anything but dry.
And why do I actually say one hundred percent, just like the scent is named? Then the almond joins in. The coconut association disappears. Almond-heliotrope-mimosa.
And what does this remind me of? -- I’ll just say Calisson, does that ring a bell?
Right - Pure eve. This scent is very, very close to pure eve in the base.
A radiance spreads across my face, the grin stretches from one ear to the other.
I say, someday I will have 10 or even more such scents, and each one will delight me.
Really great 100BON, one hundred percent good, the scent.
A true blind buy hit.

It also reminds me a lot of Pure Eve. Overall, I find the scent quite similar to yours, just without the coconut association.
