Paradiso Roberto Cavalli 2015

I really like this scent because it simply puts me in a good mood.

The bottle is relatively bulky, with a thick round cap that reminds me of a lead crystal ball.

Sprayer: it mists finely, and a sufficient amount comes out.

The scent is fruity-fresh at the beginning. But by no means as fresh as Light Blue or Moschino's Cheap & Chic I Love. Because alongside the friendly citrus notes, a truly wonderful jasmine immediately joins in for me. Not as heavy and cloying as in Alien, rather light, summery, sweet. So mandarin-citrus with sunny jasmine. Wonderful, it immediately brings to mind a radiant summer day. Yellow. Bright. Sunny.
After a while, the mandarin recedes, leaving a hint, but the jasmine remains constant, becoming a bit sweeter. It finishes sweet, woody, sunny, soft, and warm.

Sillage: initially quite strong with 2 or 3 sprays, but it diminishes after 20 minutes and then stays closer to the body.
Longevity for me, depending on the weather, is up to 4 hours in cooler weather.

I find the scent very successful.
What interests me about this fragrance is that I generally do not like flowers and blossoms in scents. But here, jasmine truly takes center stage. Surrounded at the beginning by citrus notes, and towards the end by sweeter woods. And jasmine has previously been more of a horror candidate for me; I personally find the purple Alien quite dreadful. But what a stroke of luck, this jasmine here has been marinated in proper mandarin juice :)
