Ciao Bella! by El Ganso

The only flaw is that it doesn’t last a minute, what a pity! But since it’s cheap and comes in 125 ml, you can reapply as much as you like. It starts super acidic and citrusy, then the neroli comes through a bit bitter and blends with the sweetness. In the end, it smells sweeter than I expected and I like it. The neroli really stands out; it has the vibe of Killian’s Love Don’t Be Shy. After hours, there’s a plastic note, literally smelling like those perfumed dolls from the 2000s. I loved it; it’s perfect for everyday wear, but in my opinion, it’s not worth it because it doesn’t last at all. It’s simple and uncomplicated, nothing that will blow your mind. You can buy it blind. It has elegance and a touch of fruity caramel without being cloying. It’s very feminine; I imagine a good, cheerful, young girl. I wish it lasted longer. I literally bathed in perfume from skin to clothes, and by four hours my husband couldn’t smell it at all.

Can you buy it blind? Yes. For hot weather? Yes. For all seasons? Yes. It’s soft and distinctive. At first, you get a rich, sparkling grapefruit. When it dries down, it’s clean with a soft but noticeable cedar. It could be the perfect everyday perfume; I love it!

I bought it straight away as it brought back happy childhood memories: those pastel-coloured heart-shaped sweets, little drums strung together like a bracelet, with a tangy flavour. The fixative is excellent and so is the price; I’ll definitely be buying again.

I was looking for something fresh for the day non-intrusive. This was the ideal choice. The price is excellent and the longevity on my skin is quite good. At first it’s super fresh and citrusy with noticeable orange and bergamot. As it dries down it becomes softer floral and sweet but not at all cloying. Highly recommended!

It reminds me of a Givenchy perfume I owned years ago. The scent is very pleasant; it’s noticeably citrusy but has a sweet touch without being cloying.
