I picked it up in the ferry’s free shop on the way back from Cologne to Buenos Aires. It suited me perfectly, smells just like the original Quartz, super fresh, ideal for spring and summer, and brings back lovely memories.

I picked it up in the duty-free shop on the ferry back from Cologne to Buenos Aires. I loved it because it reminded me of the original Quartz. It’s fresh, perfect for spring or summer, and brings back fond memories.

I’ve been wearing it since I was 11; I’m 26 now and it’s my signature scent. I prefer it to many fragrances that smell stronger or last longer – it’s simply mine.

I was gifted it over ten years ago and it’s one of the must-haves in my large collection. It has a lot of personality, if you can say that. I mainly wear it in summer and spring.

It’s pretty, light and fresh, but has a note I can’t identify that makes me feel sick, almost nauseous or gives me a headache, like Klaw. It ruins everything and stops me from wearing it. I’d love to know which ingredient causes this, as I’m used to heavier, oriental or potent floral perfumes. It must be a specific floral component, since Guerlain Ydille does the same thing to me, though less so, and I avoid wearing both. Any ideas?

Wow, it smells lovely… but it gives me a headache. My husband gifted it to me because he adores it, so I put up with the headache so he doesn’t feel bad. Yes, it’s very long-lasting; I wish things like Daisy So Fresh by Marc Jacobs lasted on my skin as long as this does.

Oh wow, I know it’s rich… but it gives me a headache. My husband gave it to me because he adores it, so I put up with the pain and wear it so he doesn’t feel bad. If I must say something, it’s very long-lasting; I wish the ones I actually like, such as Daisy So Fresh by Marc Jacobs, lasted on my skin as long as this.

It’s a fresh and floral fragrance, but with great elegance. Anyone from 20 to 60 can wear it. It’s very feminine and perfect for spring, summer or summer evenings. As an EDT, it lasts several hours, making it one of my favourites for the warmer seasons.

It smells very similar to Imagina by Ágata Ruiz de la Prada.
