I was really looking forward to testing this fragrance with the wonderful bottle! It almost became a blind buy candidate, but luckily I received a sample with my last purchase directly from Armani's official website.
So about the scent: nice and floral, a beautiful opening, but it quickly develops into one of the fragrances I already own. I didn't have to think long; it smells exactly like Gabrielle Essence to me. And as I can see, it has almost the same notes. Sillage is just as moderate to weak. Unfortunately, it's coming off my WL now. What a shame! It could have been so nice! :(
What is going on these days with the new fragrances that are coming to the market? :(
Then I'd rather get backups of my old favorites!
