The opening I get is a nose prickling spiciness (reminiscent of freshly ground cinnamon or cassia…you know, when the volatile oils are interacting with air for the first time and the top notes remain…almost peppery,tangy freshness over the characteristic cinnamon smell) laid over a sweet, vanilla-extract-type heliotrope and a grassy jasmine.
This is an odd but unique entrance for any fragrance. After the top notes dissipate, I get an easy to understand semi-feminine floral freshie. Jasmine, grassy notes by way of shiso and mate,a little bit of citrus,and some water. Nothing necessarily new here, but I’ll enjoy my decant. I think this would be an interesting farewell to late summer and greeting for early fall. To this house’s credit, I do smell all these unique notes(shiso, mate, aloe, cucumber) , but they create a familiar accord…which makes this an interesting take on a common genre.
I imagine this fragrance would shine as the fragrance of a leisurely woman who can’t stay away from the water. A woman who’d live her days out floating in pools and lakes with an empty mind if she had the luxury. It smells like being content by the waterside.So if that’s you, consider a full bottle

Really velvety bright floral opening, refreshing and watery but no overt synthetic ozonics or aquatics. Pleasant green tea analog, and hard to believe linden isn’t a listed note. The heliotrope makes it a little syrupy, not exactly the fresh desert pool water breeze scent I’d hoped it would be.
Sadly all other listed notes are absent, as actual wear is a fairly pedestrian tea and lime blossom. There’s some bergamot as it dries but I missed out entirely on the shiso, aloe and cucumber.
Definitely has a kinship to the Bvlgari Thé line.
