She Has Her Hands Full!
This sits heavy on my skin, overwhelmed by a bushel of gardenias and non-gardenias, though it was mostly the latter that pushed through. There is a classical floral-sweetness that is delicate and not offensive in any way. The very idea of this scent wafting through the warm air around me was incredible. However, I found it to soon become... basic?
I shouldn't really call it basic. A better word could be formulaic, since Chanel has been in the game long enough to have written the formula this perfume is based off of. It fails to impress me, refresh me, or invoke a full bottle at such a price point. I am lucky enough to have enough white florals in my collection that impress me or suit my tastes. Gardenia loses her nominal charm after an hour, focusing instead on a healthy foundation of smell-good aromas.
