I adore it! Simply delicious.
I love it! Simply delicious.
Flowers, flowers, and more flowers! If you’re obsessed with florals, this is for you. It’s sweet but not cloying, elegant and very feminine. The magnolia and neroli really shine through: juicy and creamy. The trail is moderate and lasts 5 or 6 hours on my skin, though it depends on everyone’s pH. In short, it’s a gorgeous and tempting fragrance. And the price is fantastic! Very affordable compared to luxury. Kenneth Cole’s Black doesn’t even come close; it smells like a designer perfume without costing one.
Flowers to the max! If you’re obsessed with florals, this is your thing. It’s sweet but not over the top. It feels elegant and very feminine. The magnolia and neroli really stand out, they’re creamy and leave a moderate trail. On my skin it lasts about 5 or 6 hours, though it depends on everyone’s pH, it could last a bit more or less. In short, it’s a gorgeous and tempting fragrance. And the price is brilliant, very affordable compared to the big brands. Kenneth Cole’s Black doesn’t even come close; it smells like a luxury perfume without costing one.
The best perfume I’ve ever owned, an exquisite, elegant and floral scent. It was me…
Smells incredible, I’m absolutely hooked.
