Flânerie dans le Verger - Pomme & Poire Jeanne en Provence 2011

This fragrance is currently my savior in over 30 degrees heat. Sprayed on, a citrusy-fruity scent refreshes me: a sour, juicy green apple seems to literally squirt its juice over me. A naturally fragrant pear adds a slight sweetness along with a delicate, shy rose. The scent is natural and uncomplicated with a weak sillage. It puts me in a good mood and gives refreshment as well as a neat, clean feeling - exactly what I want in a fragrance when it's over 30 degrees. I'm always wary of pear because it makes me feel sick quickly. But here it's so beautifully woven in and natural that it doesn't bother me at all; on the contrary! In such hot temperatures, I don't place so much importance on a fragrance being strongly perceptible for over 10 hours, but rather I enjoy it when a delicate, refreshing breeze blows around me again and again throughout the day. And that's what Flânerie dans le Verger - Pomme & Poire manages to do: sprayed on in the morning before cycling, it stays on for at least most of the working day (about 6 hours) - after that I have to re-spray. But then I'm already looking forward to that - to my sour, juicy green apple.
