Fresh, Sophisticated, and Youthful Fruity Floral
I like this – for someone else. My niece comes to mind. It is a very pretty, fruity floral, with the emphasis on the fruit. I do wish the fruit-to-floral ratio were the other way around as I am having a hard time distinguishing the floral notes. I faintly pick up the rose, lotv, and to a lesser degree, the ylang. The tuberose is completely missing on my skin. It does have a very fresh and clean feel to it, which I find a tad shampooey (sp?); youthful too, which is why I think this would work better for my niece than for me. Since she loves fragrances like Dylan Blue, Chanel Gardenia, Spring Flower, Burberry Blush, etc., which are in the same vein, this perfume would fit her tastes. I made a mental note to consider this as a future purchase for her after testing this sample.
By chance, (most likely ad tracking), I came across a barely used bottle of the edt. for a steal of a price and couldn't pass it up. This bottle does not have a paper label. The fragrance name is printed directly on the glass. The volume is 3.5 oz. and not the standard 3.3/3.4oz. Is this an older formula or a newer formula? I suspect the former, but I have no idea. If anyone knows, please fill me in.
Since it was already opened, I did try it and surprisingly found the performance quite good. That further makes me suspect that this is a prior formula than what is currently on the market today. I could be wrong about that as I have not smelled the most recent version, but with IFRA regulations being what they are in their never-ending quest to destroy every fragrance on the market, I suspect the latest formula might have been tinkered with. For those who own what is currently selling, I hope that is not the case.
Overall, this is a very pretty, sophisticated fragrance that's youthful, but not childish, and would work well both inside and outside a work environment, which is ideal for my young professional niece. I am sure she is going to love it.
