First impression
I took a quick sniff of this one. It starts with a bright mandarin, combined with something creamy. Quickly the lotus takes the lead. It smells convincing and clean, reminding me of magnolia. After perhaps 15 minutes the heliotrope makes a nice appearance, to my nose it smelled like 'pink spices'. It does not smell like almond, syrup, cherry or anything sweet but rather pink/purple and a bit dry in a good way. There was a hint of creaminess underneath probably a little orris. After 30-40 minutes there's some soft, 'thin' but pleasant wood and a modest to small amount of benzoin, creating a relaxing dry down.
As I'm writing this 4 hours have elapsed since I put 1½ sprays on my wrist. It has become a skin scent with little sillage. I believe benzoin has good longevity so I'm optimistic that it(or with more sprays) will last for 8 h
Impression:Not sure if this will keep the wearer interested, but not a bad scent
Addition: For an EDP it's a bit weak.
