A lightweight, fruity-floral fragrance with a dreamlike, youthful character. At first, it bursts with vivid freshness—pear, raspberry, and strawberry notes create a sweet-tart opening reminiscent of freshly crushed berries. Over time, these fruit notes gently dissolve into a soft, elegant floral heart of magnolia, cyclamen, and peony, giving it a sense of delicate transparency. The drydown is warm and slightly balsamic, built on a base of sandalwood and tonka bean with a subtle vanilla sweetness, resulting in a comforting, cocoon-like aura. The scent is delicate and not imposing—ideal for daytime wear, especially in spring and summer. It projects modestly, often requiring a close approach to be noticed, and tends to fade within four to five hours on most skin types. Despite its charming gossamer quality, it lacks strong longevity and projection, making it feel more like a personal elixir than a bold statement. It's often compared to washing products, where its pleasant sugary aroma feels associated with cleanliness and beauty, though some find the scent silly or cloying. A few note tangible differences, yet many find the progression unchanging and wish it were bolder or more distinct.
