"You’ve just walked into a Victorian hothouse packed with the most exotic orchid species, brought back by explorers from jungles all over the world. The scent of the blooming cattleyas envelops you, a soft, sumptuous fruity-floral blend with notes of citrus, peach, apricot, melon, hyacinth, gardenia, violets and lilac. At its base is a dark current of musk, exotic woods and vanilla."
I agree with the previous posts. It starts out fruity and then shows more of its floral side in the dry down. My nose isn't acute enough to tease out the subtle parts of each phase, but I can say that it has a nice, flirty, summery feel. Longevity on me is about 4 hours.
Super fruity opening. Lots of peach and melon. Orchid flowers often have these fruity openers. Then the gardenia and other blossoms. A really nice touch of gardenia in this fragrance. Never overpowering or cloying. I love the energy of the initial fruit and the lingering tropical effect of the flowers and vanilla. The dry down also accurately represents the scent of certain orchid blossoms. This is a fragrance I would wear anytime of the year. In summer and spring to match the season, in fall and winter to remind me of a warmer climates and orchid houses I have known.
A delicious fruity mix with cool nuances of melon, gorgeous flowers, very playful ;o) At the beginning it's fruity-sweet joyful mix, then it becomes more floral and this part I adore.
