How does it perform?
From 48 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure time and evenings out the occasions that come up most. Its character reads mostly feminine and classic.
The top opens bright with blackcurrant, lemon and green notes. Tuberose, rose and ylang-ylang fill out the heart, with vanilla orchid softening it into sweetness. Musk and amber settle the base into a powdery, faintly animal warmth.
