Sunny Diane
This perfume was a pleasant surprise. It's really very nice! It's been so hot and humid here all week and today I wanted to spritz on something summery. I found this scent pleasing right from the beginning. It did start out with a strong alcohol smell but it didn't last long and went right into the floral, citrus, musky smell. I usually don't like musk but it's blended nicely here and I enjoyed it. I believe they named this fragrance perfectly. It really does seem very "sunny", happy and up-lifting. It gave me a little bit of an energy boost! I had no problem with the lasting power. I could still smell it on myself at the end of the day. I bought this at Winners for a good price and I am more than pleased with my purchase.

Clean and Neat with Sunny
Sunny is still little noticed here, which I find a shame, hence a short comment.

When I close my eyes and sniff Sunny, I see a flower meadow in midsummer,
over which a light breeze blows. The scent is citrusy, without being sour, bright green to deep yellow, slightly spicy, refreshing, and sunny. An unobtrusive summer fragrance, more of a pleasant whiff than a cloud of scent. The base is warmer, has a woody touch, and leaves a "clean and neat feeling" due to the musk. In the pie chart, it is rated as aquatic, well, I don't see it that way; I don't perceive the sea here, for me, an aquatic scent must smell like the sea - maybe I'm wrong about that.

The sillage is close to the skin, which is also more pleasant for those around at these temperatures, and the longevity is about 3 hours. The glass bottle with the yellow sun feels good in the hand and matches the scent.
Conclusion: A really well-made pretty summer fragrance, the price is small, meaning reapplying is no problem. Sunny is not a standout, but it can definitely hold its own against some other summer scents from "noble houses." For men? Only to a limited extent, but if someone likes it a bit sweeter, why not.

Thank you dear Aggeliki!

Frangipani...so beautifully summery light that one could melt away...
Sunny is basically a wolf in sheep's clothing...he comes across as completely innocent, one thinks it's a gentle summer breeze...but in reality, he needs to unfold a bit first, and then you can enjoy the entire wonderful splendor of frangipani and the citrus notes....unfortunately, I can't perceive the violet, which I find regrettable....until the musk takes hold, one has to show a bit of patience...but it's definitely worth it! Sunny lives up to his name, as he indeed reminds one of wonderful, sunny days in August...perhaps not exactly on the stormy North Sea, but certainly in Tuscany or Apulia....I'm a big fan of Italy ;-) he brings joy and lightness, giving the mood a feel-good kick....he is wearable in the office but also in the evening while grilling....I love him because he embodies a sense of freedom, independence, and cheerfulness for me.....Sunny can be worn by a young woman in her early 20s just as well as by a business lady in her mid-40s...he adapts and makes you crave more....Sunny....summer....joy of life!

I would not have thought that one could get a fragrance for little money that can definitely compete with big brands in terms of longevity, sillage, and composition. It certainly deserves a comment!

Sunny Diane starts off quite refreshingly citrusy, but less lemony. Then the sun rises. It's hard to describe it any other way. The scent is comparable to an Eau de Cologne, but is significantly more long-lasting. On me, it lasts a good 4-5 hours. A successful mélange of freshly squeezed citrus fruits and soft light floral notes, with the focus clearly on the citrus notes. I also perceive light aquatic notes, a bit like sea breeze on an early summer morning. The fragrance hardly changes. Color-wise, it’s light yellow to delicate turquoise. Sillage is quite good for a citrus fragrance, but by no means intrusive. Those expecting sweetness will be out of place here.

This fragrance simply puts you in a good mood, and you feel refreshed and well-groomed, especially in high temperatures.

Thanks to Charteux, the fragrance was able to move in with me right away. ;))

A scent like sun, sand, and sea! It's a smile in a spray, sunshine in a bottle, a fulfilled promise. Is this what Frangipani smells like? Amazing!

Delicate frangipani rounded off with citrus notes, perfect and not too overpowering, suitable for a hot summer. H/S very good.

For me, extraordinary - I'm not a citrus person; but afterwards! Creamy "typical Diane musk" & frangipani. Worth every "penny."

Smells like driftwood from the sea, sun-dried. A light, salty kick for in-between, without being aquatic.

In the swap package was a surprisingly refreshing summer scent.
Zesty, cheerful, and really lifts your spirits. Thank you, dear Ninina!

Citrusy, floral, lightly spicy, green, fresh, and moderately sweet, like a flower meadow in summer.

Want a sunscreen scent, but "Glow" or "Eau de Soin" are kind of annoying? Then you might be in the right place. Nice and subtle!
