It was launched in 2001, as a pair with Aura for Men, preserving the same form, but in yellow color of brightness and optimism. The nose behind it is Edouard Flechier. Top notes are sweet and fresh, containing the accords of bergamot, mandarin, freesia, grapefruit, tuberose and litchi. The middle notes are floral with mimosa, peony, jasmine, honeysuckle and lily-of-the-valley. The base consists of heliotrope, warm and milky sandalwood, powdery vanilla and sensuous musk. This is a modern fragrance for a modern woman.

Unfortunately or fortunately, think it the later, my bottle was broken in transit. I received a cardboard box drenched in this potent smell which was disturbing, this was not pleasant for me. I think my nostrils were rather offended and threatened to vacate my face..lol
I was refunded and thank goodness I did not get a replacement. My curiosity was sufficed and with notes of sour fruits, broken down flowers and a pungency not to my liking at all, alas another one bites the dust.
The first fifteen minutes of Aura are unpleasant for me. Grapefruit scents and I don't seem to get along well (ex. Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune), and there's something else combined with the grapefruit here--maybe litchi?--that produces a sour, spoiled fruit opening to Aura.
Which is a pity, because the best thing about all the Jacomo scents I have tried is the dry-down, and Aura has a gorgeous heart and base if you can wait for it.
As with Paradox for Her (the blue one), it appears the perfumer took the best of Jacomo's discontinued Anthracite and built a variation on the theme. The fruits burn away in 15 minutes, thank goodness. Aura's spicy floral heart on its warm base stays close to the skin but has lasted 8+ hours now, with no signs of stopping.
Since I already have Anthracite in my collection, and the dry-downs are similar, I probably won't purchase a full bottle of this one. I do recommend sampling first, in case those sour fruits will be a deal-breaker for you.
great fragance !last all day long but better price at 1stperfume.com
