Sunflowers Morning Gardens Elizabeth Arden 2015

Very helpful Review
Hello again
Flankers are always a bit of a thing: sometimes interesting, sometimes even better than the big sister (or big brother), but often rather 'improved-worse'. So yesterday, I skeptically tested three of them at the Centaur, and to my surprise, I found them good.
I liked 'Morning Gardens' the best. I had actually expected a cool scent with a few pale little flowers; instead, I was enveloped by a warm, sunny fragrance cloud that strikingly reminded me of Gabriela Sabatini's wonderful 'Ocean Sun'. When a garden finds its expression in the morning here, it is not the cool crispness of still dew-covered rose buds. No, it is already late morning. The sun has warmed the earth and plants, bees are buzzing in search of floral nectar, and a lazy, shimmering calm lies over the enchanted garden. I would also like to linger here in the shade of a fruit tree.
Oops, this comment shouldn't have gotten so 'poetic', lol. Conclusion: Thumbs up. This one has to move in with me.

I've been circling around this one for ages - it always gets overlooked in the drugstore since it's quite unassuming. But I'm looking for a nice spring-summer transition perfume ^.^ Something that really fits the sunshine. This one seems perfect for that.

@Arwen79: Ouch, I completely forgot to mention the sillage and longevity. It's not a room-filling sillage monster, but I was pleasantly surprised in both aspects. Unfortunately, due to various allergies, I can only spray it on my outer clothing. For the rest of the day (the test was in the morning), I definitely enjoyed a lovely scent wafting around me, which my fellow humans probably noticed too. Even my skin still smelled of it at night.

Very nicely described! Makes me want to try the scent! I also found Ocean Sun wonderful back then! How's the longevity and sillage on this one? I find them so disappointing in the Green Tea series. It annoys me when I have to keep reapplying.
