A very strange perfume
The name and advertising suggest something very sensual, seductive and intimate, at least that were my thoughts until i have tried it on my skin.
It starts as a very joyful and citrusy smell, a burst of clementines with a strong freesia note. I also smell a bit of vetiver. This is a "sparkling# chypre, not the heavy oakmoss chypre from the pre 90´s era. A bit too sharp in the beginning, but after 15 minutes starts to transform into something more subtle and softer. I begin to smell osmanthus and rose hip and still a lot of freesia. I would place the notes in following order: freesia, osmanthus, clementine, musk, vetyver and probably only then rose hip, then ylang ylang, sandalwood. By far my nose doesn´t detect any magnolia or orchid.
I think this is a bright and sunny fragrance mostly suitable for spring-autumn, but also good for summer. I have worn it during colder time of the year as well and i can say that the chypre character is very strong then.... I would say now that it acts like a fruity chypre during colder times, than fruity-flowery perfume with chypre undertones. The middle stage is all about vetiver and smells very classic and classy, but i really enjoy the drydown, when the chypre notes are not as pronounced and i smell more fruits and flowers. Truly complex perfume in sense of development.
