I’m not an expert, but it has a super fresh aquatic opening that evaporates in minutes; on my skin it lasts a mere breath. After ten minutes, up close, I detect a slight musky note, but by an hour… nothing, it’s gone. I paid €20 for 100ml and, given the poor longevity, it seems expensive; I expected more. It doesn’t even hold on clothes. It reminds me hugely of an 80s vintage cologne I bought back then; I can’t recall the name, but that one lasted a couple of hours. Edit: I found it, it’s Eau de Luxe by Gloria Vanderbilt.
