Oh Ma Biche delivers a sparkling, effervescent experience centered around a lively citrus-fruity profile that feels distinctly reminiscent of a chilled Bellini. The scent opens with a bright, zingy blend of grapefruit and tangerine, lifted by a sharp, vegetal pepper that can dominate for the first half hour. This is quickly balanced by a clean, sweet champagne and white peach accord that gives the fragrance its signature bubbly, youthful character. The drydown leans toward a lightly sugared, slightly tart fruity freshness with minimal base notes, making it lightweight and fleeting. Despite its novelty and uniqueness, the perfume lacks depth and long-lasting presence, with sillage and longevity consistently rated as moderate to weak. Its most defining trait is its highly linear, bright, and effervescent character—like drinking a sparkling fruit cocktail that fades quickly. Some describe it as refreshingly natural, others find it jarring, likening it to sharp citrus, celery, or artificial candy. Only the most compliant, open-minded, or lemon-sensitive noses may find it truly enjoyable. It's best suited as an occasional summer accent for those who delight in playful, fizzy scents without heavy sweet or woody foundations.
