This is lovely clean, chic perfume. Perfect for everyday wear, it’s elegant and intriguing but not too sweet. To my nose it opens with a fresh floral of garden rose, violet and a hint of fig and blackcurrant blended so well that at first your nose struggles to differentiate the notes with a slight scratchy, dryness from the powder that pulls you in, intrigued to discover more. It settles on my skin lovely, with a soft fresh, green violet and garden rose and a light comforting white musk. The fig, now slightly creamy, dances with nutty salty bran that oddly compliments the blackcurrant. There is a little tingle of sweet and salty mustiness in the powdery dry down with the grains interacting with the musk, with a dustiness to it, that reminds me of paper pages in a really old book. I really like this perfume. It’s understated yet intriguing at the same time with a sophisticated yet practical vibe.
Collection Status: First bottle was a gift a few years ago. It’s steadily been in my collection for a few years now and will remain.
