A Nice Surprise

I came across a tester of this today and decided to give it a try because I like Giorgio (the original). Since I was on my way out the shop, I sprayed it on a tester-strip and put in my coat pocket. When I finally came home and emptied my pocket...I smelled this wonderful smell. The tester-strip had 'blossomed' into a drydown in my coat and was scenting the air.

What a pretty perfume this is! Peony mingling with ginger, a soft orchid note is cooling down with a slice of lemon that was caught flirting with a pineapple - and this scene was watched by a sandalwood note that smiled!

I never thought this combination could work! But it does! Despite the fruits it's more floral than fruity with a very faint sandalwood base-note.
I must sample this on my skin and see if the note that worries me (the pineapple) won't turn sour. If I get the same result as on the tester-strip I have to add this one to my collection. YUM!

I will keep you posted! But in the meantime...go on and sample it. It might surprise you like it did me. : )

Sounds really wonderful ... I'm rather hesitant with fruits these days!
