It is the Spirit of the Times
Ladies and gentlemen, feel free to reprimand me for this comment and start a shitstorm. I’m writing it anyway because it’s close to my heart.
I got to know Tiffany because my favorite YouTubers wore the famous heart necklaces. I found the simple yet special jewelry really pretty and saved up for a while until I could afford something for myself. To this day (!) I still wear my necklace and the matching bracelet with great pleasure, as it goes with everything and can be combined in a very individual way. Yes, yes, YouTube, that’s not real work, and those influencers - I can already hear the voices from off-screen. But it is the spirit of the times - nowadays, the young ladies and gentlemen from the internet are stars and embody a certain lifestyle. And this lifestyle is represented by the new fragrance from Tiffany. By the way: that lifestyle is neither better nor worse than that of 10, 20, 30, or 40 years ago. Times have simply changed. I always get a bit annoyed when I read comments on Parfumo like "fragrances were better in the past, nowadays there’s only diluted broth!" In my opinion, that’s not true - the fragrance taste of young women is simply different, and Tiffany didn’t want to create a Shalimar 2 here.
The fragrance is by no means bad; it is beautifully fresh with a certain zesty fruitiness. Unlike many other fresh perfumes, it actually lasts quite a long time on the skin and is not too close to the body, but has a noticeable sillage. I can imagine Tiffany beautifully in spring, with a delicate dress and a loose cardigan over it. It is feminine and has nothing heavy about it - but that’s nothing for which a perfumer should be ashamed. Why should that be "the downfall"...? The bottle also fits beautifully with the fragrance; it is as clear and elegant as my jewelry pieces. Without much fuss, but classic and bright.
Thank you.

Thanks for the comment!
Unfortunately, this fragrance is extremely simple and very flat. No one expects a Shalimar, but I think it could have been a bit more special. That said, I'm not throwing away my keychain either ;-).
