  1. Super fresh and clean opening, featuring that standout green geranium and citrus, supported by juniper and laurel. The base is a pleasant, resinous cedar, though it loses some of that initial green spark to become slightly muted. Not a failure, but it stops being truly special. Ideal for hot days, versatile, and with a masculine touch. The good thing is the brand delivers well on the listed notes, making it a solid reference. It promised more as a geranium scent but settles into something clean and woody, very easy to wear. Rating: 7/10, tested with an official sample.

    A lovely summer composition that delivers 100% on its promise. It’s a hyaline geranium, light and almost aquatic, with balsamic notes that soften to leave a realistic, clean floral aroma. As beautiful as it is simple, top quality, with a soft, fine trail that is a pleasure. It lasted 4 hours initially, but after six months of maceration, its longevity and intensity nearly doubled. Not the most original, but it’s a hidden gem for how it treats the geranium so crystal-clearly. An example of something simple done right.

  3. Very beautiful and original, but for me, not long-lasting and too subtle. It has a gorgeous fresh, herbal aroma where the juniper and laurel blend wonderfully with the sweetness of the geranium. On my skin, I don’t detect the fig or the woody base, only a sweet, resinous dry-down right against the skin once the green fades. Soft trail and about 4 hours of longevity, perhaps 6 in summer, but it remains very light. I wish it projected more; the first moments are wonderful, summery, and refreshing. I tried it mixed with Lalique Le Parfum and it became sweeter, though it lost some magic. For now, I’m sticking with the Lalique for this note, even if it’s cold. Scent: 7/10, Longevity: 5/10, Sillage: 4/10, Value for money: 2/10, Versatility: 4/10, Packaging: 7/10. Would I buy again? No.
