Cheap and with great longevity, around seven or eight hours, good sillage but not overpowering. Fresh, floral and feminine, perfect for hot days, the office, lunch or a date in the middle of summer. My dad gave me this perfume twelve years ago when I was seventeen. I fell in love with the scent, although at the time I thought it was too mature. Now that I’m twenty-nine, I’m dying to wear it again, but it’s been hard to find. I hope to have it in my hands soon.

Bora Bora is pure summer freshness, flirtatious and light, ideal for wearing all day while feeling free. As the name suggests, it brings to mind a paradisiacal beach with crystal-clear waters and fresh fruit. It’s so vibrant it invites adventure, which is why I wear it in summer when I’m relaxed and want to explore, just in a sarong with a flower in my hair. Timeless and for every woman.

Following Calice Becker, I’ve finally managed to get another of her super-affordable creations. For me, many of her items are pioneers of other things, speculative. This is narcissus and fresher, flirtatious narcissus with low sillage, but for the price, I’m hooked. And the fun iridescent bottle from the nineties.

Never tried this brand before and what a lovely surprise. The perfume is exquisite, a creamy, delicious narcissus. The longevity is brutal; it’s still noticeable on my skin after eight hours. It smells very much like J’adore but at a ridiculous price, so it’s definitely staying in my collection.

An intense floral scent, with moderate to low longevity on my skin, sweet and aquatic, pleasant. I finished a bottle, I liked it up to a point, but I didn’t feel like buying another one.

One word defines it: unique. An unforgettable aroma. It can be worn on any occasion… I simply love it.
