Pure White Linen Pink Coral Estēe Lauder 2009

Where was I...
Where was I when you still existed?
2009... at that time I definitely had my 2-3 standard fragrances and was satisfied in my limited little fragrance universe. Fffft... things happen...
Well... if I had been already infected with perfume back then, I would have surely come across it sooner and not just now when it has been discontinued (Waaaaaaaaarum???) and is only available through eBay. This is already driving me crazy...
I came to the fragrance through a very lovely perfume swap... so luckily I now have an almost full bottle at home. It was a "blind swap" for me, the best I’ve ever had.
About the scent:
The fragrance starts fresh and a bit fruity. I mean to sniff apples, like Granny Smith, and especially red fruits. It is subtly sweet and a bit sparkling, which I attribute to the pink pepper with my still undifferentiated nose.
In the heart, I can smell the peony and I believe immediately that it is pink. It is a very soft, tame peony, which I usually find a bit herbaceous. Those who are afraid of jasmine... let it be known to them. This is not a killer jasmine, but I believe it only adds a bit more sweetness and otherwise remains transparent. Here I also think I can smell a bit of cherry...
In the base, I smell vanilla and heliotrope, which makes everything beautifully soft and warm. I can still subtly perceive the fruits.
The bottle:
It comes across as quite valuable to me. Pink milk glass... uhaaaa at the moment pink is really appealing to me... it feels good and heavy in the hand.
Longevity:
The longevity for me is 5-6 hours, which I find quite okay. The sillage is rather subtle. In the first hour, it is also noticeable in the surroundings, but then it retreats more and more. The one who gets to come a bit closer will surely be delighted.
I find this fragrance truly beautiful and successful, especially when I think that I can't really connect with its "mother." Due to its fruity-fresh, light nature, it fits perfectly into spring and summer for me. I immediately feel good when I wear it. I feel comfortable, refreshed, and well-groomed.
It's a shame that such a great fragrance has been discontinued.
