A bit too heavy for me
Very clear iris note. Pretty powdery, a bit spicy, a bit sweet. I detect the vanilla note pretty clearly, everything else is a blur.
It's just too heavy on me. I feel it doesn't really work anywhere other than outside on a cold winter day. I'm on a train at the moment I regret applying so much as 1.5 sprays. The iris note and the sweet, buttery note are overwhelming and clash instead of working together.

Surprising but fitting take on the painting.
The opening gave me pineapple. Maybe mango. As other reviews note, this is not a very almond-y fragrance. It's a tropical fruit scent.
I can actually detect some almond, but it's difficult to find. A couple hours after I spray it on, the tropical notes dissipate and leave something marzipan-like on my skin.
I found it surprisingly similar to another Floral Street perfume, Wonderland Peony, which also has a mango-y, tropical feel. They both feel like skin scents. The difference is Wonderland Peony also has a sweet, cotton candy or strawberry lemonade note, while this is more straightforwardly sunny and serene.
I wouldn't wear it daily because I just don't want to smell like pineapples that badly, but fun once in a while.

Soft cotton candy
A pleasant, intimate fragrance on my skin. Starts out sweet and fruity with a hint of something tropical, like mango. Dries down to a clean, delicate smell like you just got out of the shower and used some mild fruity body wash. A hint of sweet cotton candy throughout.
It's elegant. It's balanced, not loud as fruity sometimes can be. I don't detect many floral notes per se, but feels stylistically similar to delicate, sweet florals.
It sits quite close to the skin for me. Almost *feels like* my skin, just slightly sweeter. You may find this an advantage or a drawback. Good for casual everyday wear and for the office, should not be offensive.

Maybe there's a nearby version that smells great?
Dearie me. The idea is great and unique: a gentle, sweet, coconut water fragrance with a hint of salt.
Unfortunately there is some note or combination that smells creamy and balmy, like quite strong sunscreen, and that combined with the salt is just overwhelming.
I think a slightly reworked version of this scent could be great, but I find it unwearable as it is.
The good point: two sprays lasted quite long on me, from the morning to 5pm.
