Continuing my search for affordable drugstore perfumes, I prowled the drugstore I trust.
So, I stand in front of the shelf, all the perfumes somehow the same, typical drugstore. Then, just as I’m about to leave, I see one last women's fragrance that I don’t know yet, half-hidden among the men's perfumes. Of course, I become curious, as someone (hopefully) must have thought this through; maybe the scent is different from the usual 0815 floral fragrances, a bit more unisex?
I sniff the new fragrance and am not disappointed. First, the citrus note from the bergamot, then a more robust scent that is still accompanied by floral accords. The composition seemed familiar - the scent definitely strongly resembles L'Interdit.
Naturally, I purchased the fragrance - a bargain at that price - and immediately sprayed it on at home. The scent hardly develops, but despite the price, there is no sharp or cheap-smelling note. The longevity is good, the sillage is decent, but not to the extent that uninvolved civilians become collateral damage.
I can recommend the fragrance if you are looking for something elegant for little money, but also a little bit outside the norm.
