    I remember it perfectly, and it’s not that sweet, innocent scent of old; it has character, ideal for special outings but not for everyday wear. I’d buy it again for nostalgia, though be warned, it smells quite synthetic.

    Crazy about it: innocent, soft and sweet, perfect for a teenager. It doesn’t stand out too much, I don’t dislike it but I didn’t fall in love with it either. Just another one in the pile.
