Side by side
Comparing the originals — price, breadth, listed-note depth.
Opens with a bright bergamot and black currant tartness that feels almost fizzy, quickly softened by a peony heart that keeps things feminine without going powdery. The apple note adds a juicy, slightly green edge rather than candy sweetness. As it dries down, ambroxan takes over with a clean, skin-warming depth that anchors the whole thing — giving it that effortless, second-skin quality. Projection is moderate; sillage is polished rather than loud, staying close and intimate by the final hours — best worn in warmer months by someone who wants fresh and pretty without crossing into generic.
Opens with a sharp, clean bite of mint layered over bright lemon and mandarin — citrus that reads as genuinely crisp rather than sweet. The heart softens quickly as jasmine comes through, adding a light floral dimension without turning soapy or powdery. Dry-down is where sandalwood and musk take over, grounding the whole thing in a warm, skin-close finish. Projection is modest; sillage stays polite and personal rather than filling a room — A warm-weather staple for anyone who wants clean and effortless without disappearing entirely.
