Tip of the Season!

This is a really, !really! fantastic, wonderful, light, freshly showered, fresh laundry, clean scent! At the beginning, we are kicked into the day by morning grumps with freshly squeezed lemon aromas, and it’s intense! (not found in the pyramid,...still present)
Minutes later, floral notes join in, paired with sandalwood, tonka bean, and the cleanest musk. The lemons fade away, leaving a scent that only a freshly washed cotton T-shirt on slightly damp skin can leave behind. Clean, soft, pure.
For an EDC, it lasts well and for me, it’s a good, no, very good alternative to Emporio Armani White (not similar, but the same wearing experience! RIP my Love)

4711, I would have never tested it without Parfumo, a fantastic scent and it has nothing cloying about it,...

My tip of the day! However, definitely wait for the lemon note to settle,... don’t test superficially, it’s worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best worn with a white or light beige summer outfit, with slightly tanned skin. Generously sprayed on clothing, this gem lasts the longest! It feels elegant and sophisticated. Big shades, don’t forget,...

Such a lovely comment, dear Lia, so I will test the scent again... and ONLY on a light blue cotton T-shirt! :-)

I can agree with you. Great, fresh clean scent (not just for summer) and an absolute steal for the price!

I’ll blame the citrus note on Yuzu. I think it’s great too; I only tested it by pure chance back then. I have the body spray, but I think the EdT will find its way to me as well ;-) .

I get everything I love: All in one! Citrusy at first and then clean-cotton-like afterwards. Great tip and -- vase!!

That's true,... and a bit sweeter,... but that fades over time,... the cotton T-shirts smell so fantastic with the scent,...

I think the comparison to Armani White holds up... I actually prefer this one because it lacks the mint! It's definitely less complex overall, though...

I smelled it today, and for the price, it's really not bad. Nice grapefruit note or something like that. Fresher and more vibrant than the old one. They probably can only sell the neroli stuff to grandmas, and they're just passing away.

It's really not that bad, but I can't share the enthusiasm. It feels to me like a lighter version of Lancome's O, with a hint of white tea.

Ps: I don’t think this one is for men! Even though it’s unisex. But I’m open to being proven wrong ;-)
