This fragrance is truly a timeless masterpiece. I feel powerful, wise and snobby with 2 spritz of this. I adore it. How things change. I used to turn my nose up at No.5, but after acquiring a bottle recently (I had decided I was of the age where this fragrance make sense to me) I cannot get enough. It's perfect, it smells like glass. There is a clean transparency throughout this fragrance but most apparent in the opening. This is something that did not appeal to my young nose, bearing a similarity (to me ) to White Diamonds by Arden several years ago. As my collection grew and I became more interested in the note profile and in aldehydes in general. This is a classic example of aldehydic floral. It is perfect. For bed, for business, for brunch, to meet the inlaws, for anything. To add your own take on it, layer it with another fragrance. The sillage is just right, not too large but enough for those immediately around you to detect it.
I just can't get enough of this. it is perfection.
