Natural, lovable, light

The scent is a dream! I wear it so often now, mostly before prayer, that I already think it will become my signature scent. Because my current signature makes me sleepy, as I usually wear it before sleeping.

Whenever I feel like being light-hearted, loving, a little silly, or when I’m just happy to be alive, I put this on. Camélia Éclatant Eau de Toilette brings a smile to my face. I feel like a girl who wants to make cookies out of dirt and pet cats with her best friend. I've never smelled anything like this before. It's almost hard to describe because it’s unlike anything else. But I’ll try.

A little pinch of vanilla sugar on camellias. Around the camellias, the finest musk mist I’ve ever smelled. No sharpness, no laundry detergent. Just flowers, wind, and love.
I don’t find the violets here old-fashioned or dusty, certainly not like violet candies in Insolence. Just subtly dosed, as decoration.

Yes, and that’s it. I could never detect a great evolution, but I appreciate the scent for what it is, simple. From now on, it’s a fixed part of my collection.

So beautifully described. I also find the scent very delicately floral.

Country girl, right? :D It was very nice.. Climbing cherry trees, making cookies from dirt, crafting jewelry from daisies.

Camelia has been intriguing me ever since Krigler Extraordinaire Camelia. It's going on my wishlist.

I had it for years until I got tired of it for memory-related reasons, not olfactory ones (and because I realized it suits me (!!!) like a bagpipe as a hairstyle); still love it.
