I was doubtful about this... I gave it a try and Mandarine Basil became one of the good discoveries of the season for me! It is soooo nice!! I'm not much into citrusy scents, but this one is less harsh and high-pitched than most nowadays citruses. It's quite sparkling in the beginning, but again not irritating. I totally avoid bracing sporty scents, I can't stand them. I would say Mandarine Basil is a soft sparkle, then it blends with your chemistry and stays there for hours, not strong, but present. I amazed at the mastery of blending citrus mandarine (ok, quite a sweet one) strong herbal basil without making a mess. It's an uplifting and wakeup scent, even if not bracing sporty. I find it's completely feminine and don't know why. I could hardly see this on a man, but who knows? As a summer daytime scent is really lovely and more distinct and descriptive than most blast summer scents and flankers. I see it on a pretty girl in white summer casual feminine clothes and it is suitable for workplace, even if it's actually more of a happy work-off summer day.

Very well-balanced perfume. This type of women's perfume I like a lot: it IS green-LIKE, but not cheap "grass", it IS a bit floral, but not powdery. Is IS a bit sweet, but not "sugar" or "definitely oriental". The real name of this perfume should be "untraceable scent" - that means green-floral but very unusual. This perfume is not "house of scents" it is "dance of scents".
As for me - it is definitely above the floral "democratic" crowd. Every pretty woman not wanting sex should smell in a style like this one. It pretends that it *is your skin's natural scent* - that I like a lot.
Another one - Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Herba Fresca.
Amazingly - they intended to and can be MIXED within this serie by yourself, producing exotic absolutely unique scents.
Lasts 20+ hours with no changes in scent.

My Favorite!
First I could only find this in Europe, but when I found it in USA I was so glad!
I purchased it in California and every time I use it, I remember Laguna Beach, La jolla and the blue ocean...
My husband adores it on me!
So fresh and delicate, not sweet, not heavy, wonderful!

When I spray the tester on paper it has a fresh wonderful mandarine top not with light grassy basil base notes. On skin its still fresh but needs more citrus because it just smells way too much like a couple of other perfumes.

I have doubts about the staying power. Does it last on skin (even thought everyone is different)?

This is my favourite fresh perfume with L'Occitane Verveine and my favourite Aqua Allegoria too.

The note of mandarine is quite strong and energizing and the basil, ivy and green tea give freshness. After four hours it still smells citrusy, and it lasts a lot more.
