Well, I like it
Contrary to the average rating on Parfumo, I find the First Dream of the Year quite appealing, but that’s also because I really like neroli and orange blossoms. The longevity on my skin is absolutely fine at around 8 hours, and the sillage is okay as well - but looking at the price... Okay... Yes, this is not a candidate for purchase :D
The top note starts, as mentioned, directly with a lot of neroli and orange blossoms. Grapefruit, oranges, and mandarins are also present, providing a nice freshness. The heart note remains floral and creates a powdery effect thanks to iris, violet, and jasmine flowers. Petitgrain keeps the scent fruity-citrusy but also beautifully greenish. I also think of soap and fabric softener. The base is rather subdued and comes with a hint of bourbon vanilla and musk.
If I set aside the price, I truly find the First Dream of the Year well done. But yes, what is offered here is nothing I would want to buy in this price range. I thank Nick once again for the manufacturer sample.
