Well, I have long since outgrown the age of being a Miss, although there are probably still English ladies today who are 85 and unmarried and therefore still allow themselves to be called Miss.
But this Miss is certainly not referring to Miss Habanita. This is a little fragrance that - when it grows up - wants to become a scent. Since it already exists in Habanita, that could take a veeeeeery long time....
The scent is light, so light that I might use it on hot spring days and in summer, but more as a refresher than as a perfume.
The opening and heart notes are one and gently fruity-floral. Miss Habanita is extremely close to the skin, meaning it can really only be perceived when sniffing directly at the wearer's skin. I consciously say "wearer," because I absolutely cannot imagine this little water on a man.
In my opinion, Miss Habanita is more of a scent for very young ladies, perhaps around 10 years old. It should come across very pleasantly, as children smell many things more intensely than adults.
The scent lasts for a few hours, but as I said, very close to the skin. There is hardly any development; the lightly fruity-floral impression remains intact. Sandalwood gives it a softness and pleasant sweetness in the end. Somehow, it feels calming and sleep-inducing to me.
Well, it doesn't exactly bite your nose, but I don't find it that light and close to the skin.
It's clear that we're definitely not talking about a brilliant "fragrance experience," but I still think it's a subtle, "nice" scent :-)
