Gone and away!
No, the title does not refer to the longevity of the perfume! It is quite average in that regard. No, it refers to my excitement when I first sprayed the scent - in spring 2009 in a duty-free shop on my way to an internal company meeting. I immediately fell in love with this perfume and spent a few bonus miles on it. A colleague, who was sniffing at my wrists and the bottle, said: "Oh yes, we need to get this RIGHT AWAY!"
At first, I was a bit skeptical! My best friend used to love the original "Miss Dior Cherie." The version back then had a note that gave me a bit of a headache, probably the popcorn note.
However, the L'Eau variant smells completely different! The bitter orange provides a fruity, slightly tart freshness that I have not encountered in such a successful form in any other perfume. The gardenias hold back subtly but add just the right amount of floral notes. For me, this perfume belongs in spring, but it would surely work well in summer too.
This beautiful scent is only occasionally available online at high prices. My 30ml bottle is already half empty... Out of curiosity, I blindly ordered a dupe mentioned here: "Flirty Edition Printemps." My impression: in the first 15 minutes, there is indeed a fairly high similarity, but then FEP quickly fades. Additionally, the cap is of rather cheap quality. Well, it's nice for refreshing during long car rides, but right before the meeting, make sure to spray the original!

I really like that one too! Diorissima has the same signature, and in my opinion, it smells identical.

There's another dupe for this scent, "Miss Anna Cherie" in green - there's also a pink version. It smells almost identical, but I can't comment on the longevity, unfortunately. It comes from some Arab country and is sold in Eastern Europe.
