Citron Citron Miller Harris 2000

Based on the fragrance notes, I would have expected a perfume in the style of Goutal's Eau du Sud or Aeroplane by Detaille, but in my perception Citron Citron is mainly candied lemon - probably an effect of the sweet lime combined with the other citrus notes. It lacks the tangy freshness of Trumper's Limes or the juicy intensity of the brilliant M. Balmain iteration of the 90s and instead of the charmingly dirty basil-citrus duet of the unsurpassable Goutal classic, which really lingers for a citrus duet and also comes across as beautifully French, Lyn Harris' creation quickly becomes trivial and disappears into oblivion after a short time. Not bad, but not exactly the "bells of St. Clemens" either Especially not at the absurd price in relation to the quality and brevity. A big "meh".
