Opens with a sharp, slightly sour rhubarb and bergamot that keeps the lychee from reading as candy — tart and bright rather than sweet. The heart is unmistakably rose, but the lychee wraps around it in a way that feels watery and cool rather than fruity-heavy. Dry-down softens into vanilla-warmed white musk with real staying power; sillage is moderate and close-wearing rather than a room-filler. Nothing challenging or complex here — it's polished, pretty, and effortlessly wearable. — Spring and early fall, office to dinner, women who want a crowd-pleasing floral without smelling generic.

Rose-raspberry opening closely mirrors Malle's composition; the patchouli base is slightly softer but well-done.
