Love at first sniff - and then no more?

First of all, I would like to clarify that I did not buy the fragrance blind (very uncharacteristic for me actually).
I smelled Cactus Garden in the spring at a friend of mine in the car. The scent spread wonderfully throughout the interior so that I could not hold back and finally had to ask him what the perfume is called.
I looked for the Louis Vuitton boutique around the corner the very next day. The prices of these perfumes did not deter me (unfortunately), because I was simply in love with this fragrance. And the flacons are so beautifully simple that you would like to hang all lined up in a display case on the wall.
As usual, the advice of the nice staff in the store was exceptionally good. So good that 10 min after entering the store I already went out the door with my little orange bag.

Enough talk about the luxury shopping experience. Now for the scent and why I regret the purchase a little in hindsight.
The fragrance opens with a very pleasant lemongrass note. Combined with the bergamot, it really has a feel-good factor at first. I have never smelled a fresh citrus fragrance that radiates so much luxury.

But somehow there is something missing. Exactly! After a good 2 1/2 hours there is because hardly what to smell. And noseblind I am unfortunately not become. None of my fellow could still perceive the fragrance after such a short time. Over 200€ ? I wear it from time to time when I only have to do short errands. For this he is then super suitable.

Maybe try Afternoon Swim? Or should I completely leave the fingers of this house?
