Giovanna De Ruy 2019

In the drugstore in which I purchased the oh-so-affordable miniature (this is Spain), the saleswoman assured me that it is a fragrance that already exists quite a long time. And quite honestly, when I tasted it I did not doubt it for a moment.
If I am correctly informed Giovanna was originally a perfume by Parera. (One of the classic, Spanish houses, think "Varon Dandi. Here on Parfumo are given for it anyway very different notes)
Unfortunately, I do not know if De Ruy has kept to the original formulation.)
The fragrance smells like vintage. It is slightly powdery with strong somewhat vintage floral notes (mainly gardenia and jasmine) and lots of patchouly in the base, which is softened somewhat by the honey. In the top notes, the orange is the most prominent.
An interesting very affordable "vintage" fragrance, for those who like that. And only for friends of patchouly. The quality is a bit above the affordable price, I would say.
