I tried it in a super famous shop and at first it didn’t grab me; it was too floral for my taste. However, I was absolutely craving coconut at the time, so I went back to look for it. Now I see it properly, although it’s not my favourite, the gardenia, water lily, tiare flower and that coconut note are very prominent. It’s floral, white and has a milky touch. Ideal for hot days, especially in spring.

It’s a light, white floral musky perfume, and watch out, I can’t detect any of that milky trail they say is moderate.

Well, it smells terrible.

I bought it blind and I’m still not sure. The opening is rich, but it didn’t evolve as I expected; they say it’s milky with coconut and vanilla, but I felt nothing, it just stayed a sharp, very synthetic scent all the time. I expected something else, but I’ll try it again when it’s hotter to see if on my skin in another climate it shows better.

Although it’s a simple scent, it’s pleasant, not too sweet and wears well even in the heat. I absolutely love it; feeling that soft gardenia with the milky touch fascinates me. It’s a wearable smell, don’t look for elegance, it’s more youthful and playful.

I tried it in a department store and didn’t like it at all. It’s fruity and floral, but I perceive it as very artificial, like plastic. I couldn’t stand the smell.
