overall unpleasant - maybe a tilted mini?!

tja: freshly applied fresh spicy, not particularly peculiar, develops for my perception extremely soapy, pushy, piercing, cheap, increasingly sweet... i will not test it from this older mini again, once and never again! ;)

Scent

The citrus-floral opening is very reminiscent of CK One. Fresh, clean, slightly feminine and far from mind blowing.

Rich tradwife influencer's all-natural artisanal dishwashing liquid. What's up with Penhaligon's thirst for photorealistic soaps?

I got this in a swap, I'd never buy it but it was interesting enough that I figured it was worth trying. Citrus

Got a miniature withy Halfeti Leather purchase. Pretty light and bland, couldn't hurt nobody even if it tried

Scent

Quite a good citrus, but I don't understand why it turns me off. It may be unisex. Most likely, it resembles an overly ripe lemon and it’s not for me

Soapy & fresh, smells like a nice hotel body lotion. Fairly long lasting and pleasant.
