If I Were a Bumblebee

I would be so hungry right now. The finest flower nectar of the lily, not at all opulent, paired with the sweetest, thickest ylang I have ever smelled, mixes with alabaster-colored, slightly sweet milk, as if a mini bag of vanilla sugar had been stirred in. Luckily, I don't smell coconut, or only in a minimalist form. Powdery, yes, if you move your nose a little away from your wrist, definitely. Primarily, however, the scent is milky for me.
I can't detect lime and jasmine, but they are likely responsible for this lily creation since lily itself is not listed. And yes, lily, because the very first breath of air reminds me, in a very, very subtle way, of Baiser V贸le by Cartier.
Later on, it reminds me of delicate baby skin, mixed with that slightly sweet smell when it has just drunk milk. An incredibly caressing scent.
And despite all that, it also has an exotic note due to the ylang.
Now I've gone from the bumblebees, through the baby, to the Caribbean. Oh well, the baby can come on vacation.

It's super pretty, I would have guessed Heliotrope or something vanilla-like, the base is great - the nicest Ylang I've smelled so far.

I really like Ylang too, especially when it's a bit stronger. It sounds so nice that I'd love to get to know it: **Pokal**.
