Linear Blossom

Today I was supposed to decant something "for on the go" for my wife and I immediately applied some to my forearm.

The scent reveals no surprises and is as linear as the fragrance pyramid.
Basically, it’s just floral notes. Maybe a bit of emphasis on the lilac. I don’t know what pea blossoms smell like, but nothing stands out. My wife just called out lily of the valley. Hmm, could be.
But I don’t detect wood and musk, except that it occasionally has a slightly smoky edge.

There is no real development of the scent. At first, the projection is noticeable and then fades over the hours. The longevity is not bad, around 5 hours or more.

It reminds me a bit of floral men’s fragrances, like Royal Court or the initial heart note in Iceberg Homme, but for unisex, I miss the wood or generally the spiciness.

Those who like floral, unsweetened, linear scents should definitely give it a try. Experts on lily of the valley might want to bring their noses closer. Perhaps the impression can be confirmed!

I quite like it on my wife, but not much more than that.
