So finally i am wearing this one today on a warm spring day. It starts out as a peppery-violet note, somehow it reminded me of a YSL “NU” EDT in the opening. A very tuned down “NU”. I was sure before checking the notes that there is a pepper inside it, but as i see it has no pepper in it surpisingly. Not impressed at first as it seems to be too bland. But after an 20min or so a new note surprisingly appears: orange. And a very nice orange. Now it smells so nice and refreshing. But calming at the same time. This orange note gives this “cold” fragrance a bit of sunshine. Cedar and pine are really nice, i like those notes in general lately. Jasmine adds a nice accent as well. I don´t know how frangipani smells like so i am not sure about this note. The drydown is all about orange and jasmine.
In general: really nice for spring-summer but would recommend it to wear in a warmer season, that´s when it “blossoms” at it´s best. It is delacate indeed but a bit too shy for me since i prefer something more louder. It has no great sillage, just enough for you to smell it for cople of hours, then it stays close to your skin. Still can smell it after 6 hours, but close to skin.
After wearing it several times i must say that this is more of a peppery-soapy fragrance. I can´t get rid of a pepper note here. This is general impression i get from this fragrance.
UPDATE: i have smelled a very similar fragrance to it and it is “Diabolique” by Eisenberg! Very very close to each other, just the price is miles away. 🙂
