Stress-relieving and seductive, airy and strong, fruity and spicy. Perfect!

At my work we carry this at the shiseido counter and it's a very unique bottle and I thought perhaps it was just me who noticed this but no the shiseido counter manager pointed it out to and what we noticed is that this is a knock off of coco mademoiselle.

i even pointed it to this one chanel fragrance vendor and she agreed with me 100% that they mimiced coco mademoiselle. Like they say " once one fragrance does so well others try to mimic it just by changing 1 note".

This one really had to grow on me... The first time I smelled it, several months ago, I did not like it at all. I felt it was too much of everything. But as I started trying my sample (in a way I could not get it out of my mind), I also started to love it. I even bougth a 30 ml bottle of it last week...
After spritzing it on the scent is certenly not subtle at the beginning. I get a lot of fruity notes, the pineapple, and I'm not really a lover of fruity scents. Still this phase remains to be fresh because of the citrus. Fortunately after some minutes, the flowery and woody notes find their way to my nose. I also love the patchouli and the warm amber and vanilla in the drydown! I find it a very different and sophisticated scent. When lightly used its also suitable to wear at the office.... Staying power on my skin is quite good (about 8 hours easily).

So close to Gucci L'arte di Gucci (almost identical to me!), same honeyed flowers, but more lighter. And of course if I like LAdG I like this one too.

I don't feel this clean or fresh, quite opposite, more like heavy, syrupy, thick sweetnes, now with Shiseido just more subtle in a japanese way.

Citrus-bergamot in the beginning, softened with gentle flowers and wood.

For me this aroma - an embodiment of the haiku... I can't get enough...

With time the aroma seems to be hardly notable, but it does not disappear, its elegant aura is felt only at approach.

The bottle is pleasantly heavy and delights with the simplicity of the form and clean colours - as the Japanese drawing...

One of the most beautiful bottles I've ever seen in perfumery. Wish I could smell its content!

I have this one, very different from the romantic ones I'm used to wearing, this one is very clean, elegant, fresh. I also think it's very original, which is always something I look for in a perfume.

I bought it for my mother, but she didn't liked it. I can't tell this about me also.:):) I like very much the scent, I wear it from time to time, especially when I have very important meetings.:)
