I got you thanks to a dear perfumer. Floral, fresh, fruity, and citrusy really go in my direction. So I sprayed it on my wrist and took a sniff.

First of all, mandarin and grapefruit start off for me, but they are heavily overshadowed by the marigold.
I have that in my garden and have made marigold ointment myself before. I had to enhance this slightly herbal ointment with essential oils.
With Bella, I feel similarly. Therefore, grapefruit and mandarin do me good. Once the grapefruit has faded, you discover the blackcurrants. A lovely moment.
Gardenia and rose follow intensely. Still carrying a bit of the marigold.
In the end, I’m left with just a hint of musk. This Orcanox and aquatic note I find hard to grasp and difficult to describe.

Yes, you are fresh and floral. Also aquatic, but with this subtle woody herbaceousness, our friendship is hindered.
You are also quite superficial.
Yes, some seek exactly that. But I miss the depth, the sinking into comfort, and the cozy ending in the evening.

As has been read in many statements, the expectation was high, and the fall therefore deep.

It is not a bad scent in my nose. It starts fruity, slightly citrusy/sparkling, accompanied by a lot of floral notes, and ends sweetish/slightly woody. It is rather light, bright, without much depth. If one were to be unkind, one could label it as "watery." On my skin, it has a somewhat melony quality.
A fruity scent that works for me, a light all-rounder, but also nothing new, nothing special, and therefore unfortunately not worth the price for me.

Ginger in abundance and fresh bergamot/lemon.
During a past sauna infusion, it smelled just like this. I immediately remembered how I sat sweating, but refreshed thanks to the scent and a bit fidgety (infusions are actually a bit too intense for me, so I wanted to get out quickly) in the sauna.
The woody surroundings, with the tingling slightly restless notes of pepper and ginger, paired with citrus - great in the height of summer and indeed in the sauna.
Towards the end, I can subtly smell the rose, which also becomes slightly soapy for you.

As a second review, I almost hesitate to write. Especially since my nose is still in the elementary school of scents. So far, it is neither particularly refined, nor can I distinguish or name individual fragrances.
But still, I want to support it.
Nomade Jasmin Naturel Intense is my latest addition. Bought a bit too quickly, but my hands couldn't hold any more test strips and my forearms and hands were all occupied. Since Jasmin Naturel Intense was the most dominant and screamed the loudest, it became the one.
Admittedly, freshly applied, it is very intensely oriental. Patchouli and sandalwood do a great job here. However, if you have the latest creation, Nomade Nuit d'Egypte Eau de Parfum, on the other arm, you don't notice it at first. Nomade Chloe edP on the back of the hand is hardly noticeable anymore.
It indulges heavily and intensely in the white flowers and becomes lighter after a few hours, but remains sweetish. Perhaps the date supports the vanilla....

My new favorite scent - simply because it can do everything.

As has been praised so often; vanilla, vanilla, vanilla, but without drowning or sticking. It hugs the skin without being intrusive. Yet it still has something that refreshes it. The lavender? The ginger? My not-so-refined sense of smell cannot decipher it. Only the overall impression delights my spirit at any time of day or night, without becoming too much or scaring off other beings.

I don’t see myself running with lions across the savannah (like in the commercial). Rather, I picture myself sitting after work in the late sun, a vanilla pastry in hand, looking forward to the weekend. It is my daily treat that I don’t want to do without anytime soon.

No matter what else I’ve worn, we keep encountering each other. On the jacket, the scarf, the sweater from yesterday, the stuffed bunny of my little one, who has once again rummaged through my treasure chest while balancing on the toilet seat. Burberry Goodess works for me always, and I have never grown tired of it. That’s why it’s my current No. 1.
