It's Love...

Recently, I ordered a fragrance from Essenza N., and one of the wonderful extras was Jaipur Bracelet. What can I say? Bang! It was love at first sight.
Upon spraying, a mix of beautiful flowers with a citrus background immediately hits you, just the way I like it - a light bazooka note appeals to me very much here. I initially mistakenly interpreted this as "oriental." I can't pick out basil, as the flowers dominate too much. All the listed notes harmonize wonderfully. The blend is certainly not inelegant, slightly skirting a madam-like note, but it manages to curve so well that I find it very interesting. The sweetness present is likely enhanced by iris and cypress with additional bitterness, ensuring it never becomes annoying or cloying.
I am thrilled - my son said: Eco, a bit like incense sticks. I don't believe him and remain excited.
Oh yes - the longevity is very good, lasting several hours, and during this time, you feel beautifully enveloped. At some point, it almost suddenly fades, leaving a delicate, slightly bitter veil on fabric that fascinates me with every sniff.
My next purchase.

P.S.: This fragrance has a sibling, but I can't figure it out. Does anyone have an idea?

By the way, **In the Mood for Love** by GFF smells very similar too.

You're right, the similarity is strong. PP is a bit fresher and sharper. JP feels softer and warmer to me, and now I love it even more, especially since I've always liked PP but never owned it.

Hmm... no, not eco-friendly and incense sticks, but *unmistakably* Pure Poison, to answer the sibling question right away;).
