Hue by Hayley Kiyoko
On my skin, there's a pleasant, tart watery fruit opening from blood orange/watermelon, but there’s isn’t a synthetic watermelon candy vibe to this at all (in other words, it's not super synthetically sweet). My prediction is that calone or something similar, was used to create a "watermelon" note that actually adds to an overall fresh/aquatic facet that I tend to be sensitive to. I believe the freesia and cacao notes both contribute to the freshness and subtle spiciness that adds some depth and opaqueness to an otherwise translucent/fresh fruity floral.
The heart smells like a dense but bright¬ cloying, sweet pink floral bouquet of peony and rose and magnolia.
The dry down is mostly slightly fresh and floral (from the heart) with the musk coming through a lot more. To my nose and on my skin, this is a slightly tart and fresh fruity floral that gets slightly musky in the dry down. In my opinion, it does not smell similar to Delina (despite similar lychee, rose, peony, and musk notes). Fresh florals are not my favorite kind of perfumes, but I will appreciate this fragrance in the spring time and fall time. I particularly love the sleek red bottle and portrait on the box.
The fragrance's official campaign and description mentions that the base/dry down in particular is supposed to smell different on everyone and I would love to hear other experiences with this fragrance.
