Not improved
"La Perla" is no longer the sensational chypre it used to be.
It seems to have lost its rich complexity, yet it is still based on the idea of an aromatic chypre. Its wooded notes of vetiver and moss are there, but there's also a sharp element I dislike.
Obviously, the fragrance is not blended from the old, high-quality ingredients. I guess it was inevitable that reformulation would NOT improve it. But most perfume houses get away with their "re-orchestrations".
I for my part will not repurchase.
