Flash by Jimmy Choo

Ed is a good perfume! Reliable and with good longevity, I see it as ideal for daily wear, although on very humid days it can be a bit overwhelming. It smells of honey, haha, even though it doesn’t have that note… that’s what I perceive. It feels very similar to The One and The One Essence by D&G, so if you like them, buy it blind without fear. A friend bought it on offer but didn’t like it, so I gave it to me and I have no regrets 😃.

Generally, I struggle with fresh and citrusy perfumes, but they are indispensable for spring and summer. I admit that my thing is sweet and winter scents, but when the heat arrives and I can’t find anything appropriate, I suffer. I’m not able to go into the shop because fragrances of this type have always seemed less elegant to me; but I correct myself and think I can’t be so structured and what I need is something casual, evoking beach and breeze. Luck was on my side: last year my husband gifted me this perfume for Christmas and I found it fantastic. It smells of sea, of coastal nature, of orange and heliotrope; above all, it has a sting and sweetness at the end that give it the necessary touch for me to love it. Jimmy Choo Flash is like a pure water bath and refreshing shower that wakes you up to face those warm and sunny days with all your vitality. A hit!

I really liked this perfume; it felt creamy and unctuous, with a very elegant yet casual scent that makes it very wearable for any situation. It has a slight acidic touch, very subtle, like a background note, which makes it not a cloying fragrance nor excessively sweet. It’s fantastic for personal delight or for those who smell it.

Unctuous, spicy and floral. Smells of luxury. I love it.

Attractive, sweet and unique. The tangerine and strawberry give it a cheerful touch; you can smell jasmine and woods. So far, for me, the best from Jimmy Choo.

I tried it today and it seemed very strong, like an older lady. I didn’t like it.

I wonder what ‘white wood’ Flash has; it’s its distinctive mark, perhaps creamy incense. At the start it smells of sweet roses. The dry-down notes are enchanting and cheered up my day. It’s floral for pleasant evenings. In the middle phase, jasmine dominates, then heliotrope, creamy sweet orange (it reminds me of Royal Cream by VEN) and a touch of candied strawberry. The lily reminds me of 212 by Carolina Herrera, but it passes quickly. For quiet trips followed by dinners and entertainment, ideal for chats with new people or walks. It’s pleasant, feminine, attractive without being brash, to delight those who approach. It also goes well during the day. Another one I liked from JChoo.

I went absolutely mad for Ultrafemme Cancún by Ultra; it’s my number one and I picked it up at a bargain price.
