On me this is a sunny fruitchouli. Nice but not very unique. The color of the bottle doesn't suit this scent, a warm colour would be better.

Just to clarify why I give this a 7.5 for scent rather than a 6, even though I don't find this very unique: lately I managed to get my hands on a LOT of free samples. Not the niche ones that I usually buy or get for free with another niche perfume, but the ones big corporations hand out themselves to lure customers. Many of these free samples smell very much the same to me (ESPECIALLY the ones from L'Oréal brands). They're not bad, but it's like they took the same juice and slapped another label on it. Maybe my nose has been ruined by the snobbery of wearing mostly niche and indie, idk. With this perfume, I basically smell two things: the very 2000s fruitchouli part that I've smelled many times before, and the sunny part, that I've smelled many times before. As for the "sunny" bit, Bon Parfumeur 203 is that in the purest form I found just yet. What I hadn't smelled before, was the combination of these two aspects. That, combined with that I don't hate it, makes is a 7.5 and not a 6.

As for the colour of the bottle, I would have suggested a warm pink or a light yellow that leans a bit orange. Since warm pink is already taken in this line, I'd say light orange-ish yellow would have been the best option (also, there is literally a shade of cream named magnolia, apparently it's a very popular colour for walls in Britain). This lilac-y lavender-y colour makes me expect something, well, lilac-y or lavender-y or some other way more clean or fresh smelling. I know this is nitpicking, but it stood out to me.
