    Not really my style, but I liked it; I gave the sample to my mother and she absolutely loved it. It smells clean and fresh, hard to dislike, very neutral and unisex. It’s a pro and a con: to me it feels generic and, being a niche fragrance… well, I’m not sure. There are cheaper options that offer the same thing.

  2. The initial bergamot note appealed to me, what a pity it lasts so little. The dry down didn’t quite work for me, a white floral that reminds me of an older lady. In short, it’s good for reapplying and refreshing yourself in summer, but for me, it’s a no.

    Refreshing, sparkling, and citrusy bergamot. Although it includes florals and tonka bean to add body, it fails to achieve it. Faint trail and poor longevity. Despite the prices of this niche house, there are cheaper options with better performance. Very pleasant for summer, but otherwise, for me, it’s a no.

    Once I finished the 2ml sample, here’s my verdict. The opening is rich, a juicy bergamot like an energy drink, but the magic fades after five minutes as it evolves into a synthetic citrus and a tonka bean that makes it smell like a pharmacy cologne. At €78, it’s not worth it. In my odyssey for the best light citrus, it comes in last out of 11.

  5. Clean, natural bergamot opening, simple and pleasant, but it fades quickly leaving a metallic musk dry down that I find irritating. Soft trail and longevity of about two hours. For a fraction of the price, there are better options in its line. Scent 4.5/10, longevity 1.5/10, trail 4.5/10, value for money 2/10, versatility 2/10, packaging 7/10. Would I buy again? I didn’t.

  6. Citrus opening that quickly gives way to an intense jasmine. I see it as more feminine than unisex.

  7. Typical cheap perfume sold as ‘niche’, although the price isn’t excessive. Synthetic bergamot that mixes with cheap ambroxan or musk, leaving a dirty and unpleasant trail right up close. Lasts 1-2 hours with a poor trail. Perhaps for €10-20, but in my case, not even then.

  8. A budget fragrance masquerading as niche, even if the price isn’t outrageous. Smells of synthetic bergamot mixed with cheap ambroxan, leaving a dirty, unpleasant trail clinging to the skin. Lasts only one or two hours with a very poor sillage. For €10-20, it’s simply not worth it.
