    It’s a pure vintage floral, super nineties; I detect no fruit at all. Ideal if you love retro scents.

  2. What a beauty! I sensed it as green and floral, without the fruity notes others mention, but with sparkling touches. It lasts all day and night, in winter or summer. Elegant and feminine, with a stunning carved bottle. I would use it again; it is a true gem.

  3. Beautiful perfume! I always perceived it exclusively as a green floral. I never recognised the fruity aspect, although beyond being floral it had sparkly touches. It suits any time of day or night, winter or summer. Elegant and feminine. The fragrance and its cut glass bottle are a beauty. I would use it again.

  4. I had it ages ago. I loved it! But my grandmother said it smelled like medicine, haha, I think she didn’t like the sandalwood. Without a doubt, this perfume, along with Escape and Tommy Girl, marked my adolescence.

  6. I loved it! It was my first perfume; I remember buying it in Paris at a gallery near the Louvre. I was cheeky, a spoilt girl hunting for CK One, and the saleswoman challenged me: ‘If you come to Europe, don’t look for American perfumes’. Perhaps she has a point, but it’s not my fault if her job doesn’t suit her. From here, the idea of selling perfumes in Paris looks very lovely. Let’s leave it at that; I loved it deeply and would love to find it again; they say it’s somewhere in Asia, and we shall meet. Love, Maria. I remember it fresh, clean, floral and cheerful. Juventus, divine treasure.

    I absolutely adored it! I had it back in 1996, my second imported perfume, and now it’s unavailable in Argentina. I recall its scent as if it were today; it is impressively rich.

    I absolutely loved this perfume! I had it back around 1996, my second imported scent… and now it’s unavailable in Argentina. I remember its aroma as if it were today; it’s impressively rich.

  9. I adored this fragrance! I used it constantly between 1995 and 1997; I loved it and it made me feel fresh and sparkly, a real energy boost. Above all, I detected notes of melon, green, watermelon, and then as it settled, valley lily and jasmine. I loved it immensely but then they discontinued it and it’s no longer available. If it can be found in other countries, I recommend it to those who love refreshing and persistent fragrances.

  10. I loved this fragrance! I used it a lot between 1995 and 1997; I adored it, it made me feel fresh and sparkling, a shock of energy. I sensed mostly melon, green notes and watermelon, and then as it settled, the flowers, valley lily and jasmine. I liked it immensely, but they discontinued it and it’s no longer available. If you have it in other countries, I recommend it for those who love refreshing and persistent fragrances.

  11. Back when Givenchy was a monster in perfumery. I gifted it to my mother after a health issue and waited for her at home with much love, on the hall table. It was spring and what a beautiful perfume on her skin. Discontinued, it was a gorgeous floral-fruit-green, feminine, fresh, alluring and elegant, a great work of the 90s when the designer was niche.

  12. I simply cannot tolerate it. It was a blind buy and it gives me a headache. I want to exchange it.

  13. I used it for a long time until it was discontinued in Chile. Of all the perfumes I have used, this has been the best. I see everywhere how to get it again, but apparently it is no longer available in several parts of the world.

  14. It is a youthful fragrance, fresh with very persistent watermelon notes, very summery but intense and with good longevity. What a pity it has been discontinued. I keep a bottle with half the contents. Sometimes it can be found in Chile at some importers. Its trail is moderate to high; it is an easy-to-remember and delicious perfume.

    My mum gifted me this when I was sixteen; I still have the bottle with the memory of the scent… I’d love to buy it again but it’s incredibly hard to find… does anyone know where?

  16. It’s the perfume of my adolescence. Intense and fresh, a harmonious blend of fruits (melon is very noticeable) and flowers, with great longevity. It feels cheerful and youthful. Nowadays, I believe it’s only still sold in France. A delightful fragrance, perfect for spring and summer.

  17. Oh dear, this perfume is wonderful! My dad gave it to me when I was a little girl, still at school… does anyone know where I can get it in Chile?
