Feminine energy

I see this as the perfect scent for brunch, coffee date or drinks with your girlfriends, date night, summer dinner al fresco, a picnic at the park and a self-care afternoon. This is one’s for the girly girls, the flirty women, you get the vibe ^-^

After spraying this only once on top of my hand, I kept smelling it throughout the afternoon, even after washing my hands at least 5 times. On me, it lingered for around 5 hours with good Silliage & about 3 more closer to the skin.

I tried my Oriana sample & this one side by side and I Personally cannot smell a difference between the two in the dry down, only the openings are a bit different but that only lasts about a minute or two.

I Had been considering buying Oriana by PDM since I first smelled it last year but then yesterday I tried this absolute gem at my local Zara & my need for this scent has been fixed at a fraction of the price! The resemblance is astonishing and on my skin, this one performs even better!

As for the Love by Killian comparison, I’d say that very much like Oriana, they are sisters but not twins. Love is a bit softer and more marshmallowy, whereas Oriana and Velvet Shadow are a bit more orange blossom prominent, in a good way.

The bottle's cap is a bit too tight but that is the only con i can find in this.

For the price, you truly can't go wrong with it. I recommend you at least try it!
