So de la Renta, unfortunately a forgotten scent :(

I can only recommend this little gem to anyone who loves floral perfumes with a slightly fruity touch!
So de la Renta is lightly fruity upon application with sweet-sparkling mandarin, freesia, sweet-scented white gardenia, watermelon, a bit of mango, and a slightly noticeable cardamom note..
The heart note brings in beautiful floral notes such as daffodil reminiscent of spring, white lily, intensely fragrant peony, and jasmine, along with delicately scented lotus flower and sensual tuberose :)
This beautifully floral-light fruity elixir has white musk and vanilla in the base note, giving the perfume a slightly powdery character.
So de la Renta is simply worth buying!
I actually find it a bit sad that this scent has been forgotten, it would surely please many here!

Please test!

I would find it nice if the melon note wasn't so dominant and long-lasting. I might have worn a watermelon, but do we really need to smell it all evening?

The scent stick, which is more intense with mandarin, is then v.Guerlain L'instant Fleur de Mandarine! It's a perfume for women, very feminine, but beautiful :) You can find So de la Renta relatively cheap on eBay!!!

I can imagine that I like it because of the mandarin. Too bad you can't test it anymore. Or can you? Thumbs up!

Oh dear Medusa, that's just how it is; it's written in every perfume literature! Hugs and kisses!

For me, a fragrance is a classic if it's been successfully on the market for at least 20 years; what the press says doesn't matter to me.

That's right - after ten years, a fragrance is considered a classic.

But Medusa, a fragrance that lasts over 10 years, is a classic!! Do you know this little scent?

Yeah, that's true, but it didn't become a classic.
