Daisy Sunshine delivers a soft, youthful scent centered on strawberry and violet, with marigold and amberwood adding warmth and depth. It has a delicate, airy quality that feels perfectly suited for the day and summer months, with light, fresh fruitiness that evokes a sugared gummy candy or creamed strawberry without being overly sweet. On skin, the scent is subtle and close to the skin, rarely projecting beyond moderate sillage. The longevity tends to be weak, with many noting it fades quickly, sometimes so completely that companions can't detect it. Some find a noticeable plasticky or artificial note, especially early on—though others describe it as clean and radiant. The overall impression is of a tender, innocent fragrance, best suited for casual daytime wear, particularly for those who enjoy soft floral-fruity scents with minimal sillage and moderate staying power. It's not universal, and many find it lacks strength and depth compared to the original Daisy. However, for those drawn to simplicity, freshness, and a light, wearable summer scent, it offers a quietly charming experience that stands out among the more heavy-duty flankers. It's ideal for the warm season, especially spring and summer, though it's rarely suitable for night wear. It’s not recommended for those seeking bold projection, long wear, or intense complexity.
