Fresh Chypre

Its start very fresh with grapefruit and the cassis leaves.Then it turns a bit woody I think the patchouli and cashmere sets in.The flowers are very soft but noticable. A wift of rose and violet but they stay in the background on my skin. The drydown is lovely. Patchouli, woody and soft flowery.
The dry down reminds me a bit of Liberte or Coco Mademoiselle

Fine, Subtle, Delicate Freshness

In our professional compartmentalized thinking, we often lump Jil Sander together with Chloé. This is simply because all Coty fragrances are presented by the same sales representatives. Often, during a single visit from the Coty employee, we encounter new products from both brands. My first thought when getting to know Eve was therefore: You already have something like this, it’s quite similar to Love, Chloé.
Upon closer inspection, however, I must admit that Jil Sander has not had such a delicate treasure until now. Fresh, floral-powdery, bright, delicate. The direction does show parallels to Love, Chloé, but in direct comparison, Eve is indeed more subtle, finer, and more reserved. Personally, I like it even better than Love, because I could wear this fragrance, even though the girlishly delicate floral scents usually do not match my taste.

Fresher than Jill, more floral than Style, naturally much more reserved than SUN, and more girlish than Sensations, Jil Sander caters to a customer base that has not yet been satisfied.

If I want to compare Eve with Especially from Escada, which we also launched on the same day, then while both fragrances are young, floral-fresh, and girlish, Eve is more versatile, as it does not only target young, cheeky girls, is more reserved than Love, Chloé, and can also be worn well and daily by "adult" girls.

Under the Radar

"Eve" Eau de Toilette from the good old Jil Sander: Since this scent unfortunately flies under the perfume radar, so to speak, it is "underrated," and here follows my comment.
---
First: Who is Jil Sander? For those who, contrary to expectations, do not know her well, here is some information about her:
Heidemarie Jiline “Jil” Sander, born in November 1943 (she will turn 80 this year!), is a German fashion designer and founder of the company named after her (after studying textile engineering and spending several years professionally in the USA). She grew up in Hamburg and has been known since the 1980s for her timeless and elegant women's fashion and, since 1997, for men's fashion as well as her cosmetics line (and of course perfumes). Alongside Karl Lagerfeld and Wolfgang Joop, Sander is one of the few internationally renowned fashion designers from Germany. She sees her aesthetic rooted in the Bauhaus tradition, refers to her puristic fashion as having "smart cuts that give the wearer freedom of movement and dynamism," and spoke of her designs as "fashion as a protective cloak of emancipation." At the end of the 1990s, she sold her company to the Prada Group. It is also known that she lived for years in the upscale Hamburg-Rotherbaum and later with her long-term partner on an estate in Schleswig-Holstein.
---
Jil Sander's fragrances are known worldwide, especially in Europe and the German-speaking region. The first fragrances were "Woman Pure" in 1979 and "Bath & Beauty" and "Man Pure" in 1981. Her most famous scent is probably "Sun," a sweet-floral, powdery summer hit fragrance.
Now to "Eve": The perfumer of this scent is none other than Olivier Polge, who has created many well-known Chanel fragrances and also, for example, "Flowerbomb" and "Armani Code." I can tell that this fragrance was created by a very experienced scent creator; it is truly very harmonious and somehow has a "Chanel-like" quality, if I may put it that way. However, I do not find that it resembles Coco Mademoiselle very much.
At the beginning, a tart fruitiness surprises in the top note, which smells neither really of grapefruit (blossom) nor of blackcurrant, but rather of a fresh-fruity fantasy scent note. The heart note is subtly floral, meaning there is no "in your face" floralness, but rather a more reserved floral quality; neither rose, jasmine, nor violet is distinctly recognizable, but it is more of a beautiful blend. At this stage, the scent is also not sweet, or perhaps just a little - which is very pleasant. Patchouli and a noble, woody note run through the entire scent progression. Overall, I perceive the fragrance as very "refined" and classic. It is simply not a fashion scent with oud, pompous or loud!
On Fragrantica.com, I read the following sentence in a comment and had to chuckle: "It smells like traditional German femininity: proper and clean."
What I like so much is that "Eve" is discreet, elegant, and yet always present. For an Eau de Toilette, the scent really lasts excellently - it lasts all day for me.
Unfortunately, the scent is probably not "expensive" enough (and thus not exclusive in their eyes) for some people. It also does not come in glamorous packaging or a golden bottle with embellishments, but rather very simply, just like Jil Sander's fashion.

So, don't be dazzled, try "Eve" next time and be objective; you might soon have a new favorite scent!

My Friend Eve

Dear Eve,

We should actually be the best of friends. You are delicate, feminine, innocent, and subtly sexy. You like pink, enjoy fruity-fresh and floral scents. You also love to cuddle when the day comes to an end.
But something is not right between us. Every time I see or smell you, you annoy me. Too perfect, smooth, one-dimensional. Nope. This isn't going to work out between us. Don't be sad, you will find many admirers, because you are truly enchanting. I wish you all the best,

Mari

I Love to Fit into This Drawer!

I absolutely love the new "Chloé" and I adore "Love, Chloé" (unfortunately, I can't wear it). So what does that mean according to the calculations of the ladies and gentlemen at Sander? Well, that I will be crazy about "Eve." And what do I do? I’m all ears, I’m so into "Eve."

I would say the calculation has worked out. Am I really that predictable? I don’t care. Then I’m just a drawer consumer. I happily fit into the Chloé-LoveChloè-Eve drawer!

Whatever the other Fumos say: "Eve" touches me deeply. And because I’m touched, I’m at a loss for words. I’ll just try to compare it to the "sister scents." The new "Chloé" is a hyper-feminine rose detergent scent. "Love, Chloé" is a hyper-feminine handbag scent. And "Eve" is a hyper-feminine, slightly fruity soap. Not rose soap, but the scent of freshly washed women’s skin with fruity luxury soap.

"Eve" smells so soapy that I even feel the specific soap taste on my tongue after spraying it. Accompanied by a sweet-bitter, only hinted fruitiness. Even later, this hinted fruitiness remains (yes, those are definitely currants and a bit of grapefruit). I can't report any pronounced floral notes here. Just soft, enchanting luxury soap on women’s skin.

Another sister of the well-groomed female family: Yum!!!

More scents like this, please! Please churn out even more of them: My heart and my wallet are wide open!

Mari-treasure: Thank you for your wonderful sample! I greedily used it up to the last drop. Now I can’t avoid making a purchase!
