You can really see the artistic background. As far as I know, those are supposed to be the zodiac signs.

I can understand that. This "variation" probably isn't for everyone.

I definitely picked up on the peach... but I like that in vintages. Beautiful scent!

Weird, right? I feel the same way. In vintage scents, it's great, but in modern fragrances, peach often annoys me quickly.

It depends on the green...

Already green, but not overwhelmingly green.

I read in my notes that it has a bit of a prickly sensation in the nose.

I'm curious to hear your opinion. Yes, the bottles are definitely little works of art.

It sounds a bit warmer and more approachable than the EdT. Are the two very similar?

You've already noticed, this one is definitely warmer, and the EdT is a bit more serious.

I sometimes find peach a bit tricky. But here it seems to blend well with the rest. Nice.

However, the peach is the star, as it brings a lovely softness and pleasant sweetness to the mix with its fruity sweetness (without the scent becoming really sweet). Thank you very much to @Ergoproxy for the opportunity to test this rarity.
