Starts bright and citrusy with beautiful bergamot, underlined by a cake-like sweetness. Lavender blossoms are subtle. Then it becomes similar to Goddess, that vanilla cream candy taste. But even then, there is less herbal lavender and overall it is lighter. It fades after about 6-8 hours on the skin and simply becomes lighter and creamier over time. So it smells high-quality and the longevity is quite good as well. I am very satisfied to have ordered it.
