This perfume is a classic. It does by its nature fall into the "basic" category. It is non-offensive, feminine, office friendly. I can see it being a staple day scent for women in their late 20s up to 50s.
On the first smell it is sharp probably due to the lime and some powder in the background, but within 30 minutes it transforms into somewhat of a skin perfume, it is right between powdery and sweet (vanilla). But these two opposites are not fighting against each other for dominance, as they are perfectly combined with heliotrope and jasmine. Suddenly, you are teleported in 90s Japan. I can easily imagine professional woman having a lunch under the cherry blossom tree while big modern skyscrapers surround the garden. Soft, yet strong. Feminine, yet modern.
If you need "basic/daily/office" perfume, and you can handle powder and vanilla this is a must have. Unlike other perfumes with similar DNA this one stands out. As "basic" it is, it is not unforgettable.
