Freshness for a while
This one delivers what the notes promise: a fresh and watery lily, soft jasmine and some grounding wood.
The opening feels a lot like wandering in a japanese garden, including a waterlily koi pond. The jasmine is present for the longest part of the ride, and is not overly indolic - it all remains quite fresh and clean, if somewhat synthetic.
For its price it’s surprisingly elegant, has an impressive sillage and a very good longevity. Big compliment getter, too, if anecdotal evidence counts.
The only downside is the late dry down (after about 3 hours, and the rest of the night), which i perceive as sharp and sour. I can’t attribute it to something cheap as i experienced a very similar, unpleasant sharp note in more expensive perfumes like Dyptique Eau des sens and Hermes Jardin de Monsieur Li. It’s probably something my nose doesn’t like - your mileage may vary.
