Summer in January
Today the sun was shining. I reached for a summer scent, even though we are in the beginning of January. Intuition was just nearby so I sprayed it. I know it well. It is not the best summer scent I have, and sadly there is nothing remarkable about it. But having so many perfumes I would like to wear, test and review, I do not always go for the remarkable. And Intuition deserves a review, too.
It starts out with the citric notes and the orange blossom. There is a bitter note among the sour, that makes it perfect for very hot days. Then come the flowers. I must admit, that I have not yet been able to detect Chinese Rhododendron. I have several rhododendron bushes in my garden, but they all have a quiet smell, so that must be the reason. Gardenia, Rose and Freesia I do get. The heart lasts for one to two good hours. The base is very subtle my skin - almost nonexistent. Summing up Intuition is short lived, fairly shy but has a delicious beginning. Not one of EL’s best fragrances.
180/365
