All-rounder
Of course, I had to take the hype surrounding the fragrance and test it myself.
First of all, I'm not a chic LV fan at all. To each his own of course, but this is supposed to be directly about the fragrance.
Nice citrusy fresh scent at the beginning. However, very much in the frame. Not too citrusy and fresh as you might think. The teen note joins in very quickly and is very dominant, which makes the fragrance very special. Very nice in my opinion. I also perceive the fragrance as very soapy and creamy. Everything just fits together. Nothing stands out, except of course the beautiful teen note. A very well-rounded fragrance. An absolute all-rounder for me. Wearable at any time, except perhaps in winter. Can be worn at work, in the evening to go out or simply every day. For partying, of course, I would go for something else. It's too quiet for that. Not a fragrance that offends.
On the whole, a nice all-rounder. For me, of course, the P/L story is not right. If you have the necessary change, why not. No fragrance in the world has to cost 300 euros or more. But that's just the way it is and so the whole thing should of course have a certain "exclusivity". Bliblablub. You can still treat yourself to a fragrance or two for a little more money.

Delicious mint
A very, very nice summer fragrance with a big catch in my opinion.
I am not an expert. I'm not going to write a novel, others can do that better.
About the fragrance...the fragrance starts with a wonderful fresh citrus/mint note. The mint .... is particularly noteworthy. I have never perceived such a beautiful mint note anywhere else. The mint brings the fragrance very far forward and makes it special in my opinion. The fragrance doesn't change much as it progresses. The top notes become a little weaker but still dominant enough that the scent you heard at the beginning remains in your head throughout. So minimal change until the drydown.
What's the catch now? I don't know the older batches. I bought the fragrance in March 2024. Unfortunately, the durability is simply not good for a fragrance costing 300 euros. P/L absolutely not justified in my opinion. No question, the fragrance is really great. But the durability...felt after 3h only to smell close to the skin. On clothes, of course, a little longer, but you can only smell it when you smell it close to your clothes. This could be a little better for a fragrance in this price range. Yes, it's a light summer fragrance, but I still expect a little more.
Would have liked to know how the durability of older batches is for comparison.
Otherwise, it remains a very nice fresh, citrusy, minty summer fragrance.
