Fresh-greenish painted flowers. No coconut for me, at most citrus fruits and not too much sweetness. Surprisingly refreshing*

I found it a bit bland during a quick first test. I should take another look at it.

That sounds wonderful. For me, the scent was very sharp, but after your comment, I might give it another try...

Shrill, refreshing, I think I know what you mean. I find it so lovely at this time of year because it has a sharp, tangy component that I appreciate in spring.

I'm a bit more sensitive about that.

Coconut or fruits? I get coconut if I spray too much. 😅

*for such a floral arrangement. I really don’t associate “tropical” with this, and I don’t recognize the “fruits” unless it’s meant to refer to something other than oranges or lemons.
It has a zesty, tangy note right at the beginning that settles down and becomes sweeter over time.
However, I still find the perfume to be somewhat fresh.
It could also be a great wedding scent.
