  A flanker that bears little resemblance to the original. Opens fruity and quite sharp, with no candied fruit notes. It gives way to light rose and patchouli, never heavy. The raspberry and lychee acidity persists, softened but still present. Towards the end, I detect plenty of cedar, which adds elegance. I love this acid/floral/woody blend; notes that seem contradictory yet work perfectly together. Well-balanced. Performance is average, neither discreet nor a bomb. Value for money is 10/10. Ideal for moderate or cool temperatures, perhaps for a summer evening. I understand it won’t suit everyone, even being labelled horrible by some due to its acidity and slight sweetness. It’s not a typical fruity chypre. Although available in almost every perfumerie, I don’t see it as widely distributed. There must be a reason. I wouldn’t recommend buying blindly. I’m already on my second bottle. Not many perfumes can claim that.
