Slightly sweet but clean scent!
After the strong initial blast of alcohol (was not expecting it to be so strong), you're met with a sweet fruity smell. There’s also a slight zing coming from the ambrette seed. I could smell a mix of nice juicy, sweet and slightly tart blackcurrant mixed with peaches: a soft fruity accord. I was truly surprised, since I wasn't expecting much from this perfume given all the reviews I saw on Fragrantica and Sephora. There's also this lovely aspect of sugar coming from the sugar note that ties it all together with the creamy jasmine. It's a pretty feminine scent. The drydown is an unusual blend of musk, tonka beans and blond woods which surprised me. There’s a nice creaminess in there, but also a weird accord that doesn’t vibe as well with my nose which is unfortunate because I did love the top and middle notes. I’m not sure which is the culprit although I’m hesitating between the white musk and blond woods. Could also be a powdery aspect I’m detecting that isn’t helping everything.
It's a scent that stays really close to the skin. For those who are looking for powerhouses or strong perfumes that leave a sillage, this is not it. I think it's pretty inoffensive and nice if you want to wear it for relaxing or in a setting where you're going to be close to people. It's not the best fruity scent out there, but I did love the blackcurrant and peach interpretation. Unfortunately, I did not like the dry down (and I’m still trying to figure out why) and will thus not be adding it to my collection.
