Tommy Girl Ahoi
I had sporadically worn Sport over a few years before finally passing it on (and I regret not having shot a usable picture while it was still in my possession). Pour Elle is kept in the same colours with a similarly mirroring metallic cap like the men's version. Instead of a square, the bottle shape for the women's was round and flat, pleasantly compact, cool and smooth to hold in your hand with its matte glass surface, giving it a natural touch.´
The scent was a combination of concentrated berries and cold-showered, clean white florals. While musk certainly provided good longevity of more than half a day with a light application, it also amplified an edge which always started bothering me after the quite enjoyable beginning. I assume it was caused by the mix of musk, heady florals and the tartness of the fruit.
The influences of advertising aside, the scent to me did evoke the colour of a cool blue; the fruity casualness was kept 'mature' with the florals, and the otherwise quite unisex, woody-musky base matching the 'sport'- theme was countered by the bittersweetness of the fruit, more like the pip and skin than the pulp.
Overall, I would've called this the 'Sailaway'-version of Tommy Girl, with similarities not in the scent but the type; its persistence, together with the washed (but not bleached)-effect, would have made this a good choice for long walks along the windy coastline or a day out on the deck.
