First impression
It starts with a blossom smell, apple blossom apparently, fortunately it's not very fruity. A while later one gets into the fresh floral heart. I don't get much jasmine but only the hyacinth. This hyacinth is fresher and breezier than normal hyacinth. Hyacinth can be quite dense but in this fragrance it's very fresh. After 1,5 or 2 hours on the skin, the vetiver joins in, as a supporting note. Because of the hyacinth-vetiver combination it reminds me of Chanel Cristalle (edp). But the Chanel has more substance, more jasmine and galbanum. Due to the freshness and lack of jasmine, the Chloé is unisex, leaning to the feminine side because it's still clearly a floral fragrance.
I get little sillage, the longevity is pretty good for a fresh fragrance. Test before buying, but it wouldn't surprise me if it lasts 6+ hours. The ingredients are up to scratch. It's worth trying.
