Well...
Somehow I thought it smelled different, much fruitier due to the pineapple note with pistachios, similar to the fragrance, first version ''Girl of Now''.

And ''Girl of Now Shine'' smells a little heavier. I love the pineapple note but here, unfortunately, I don't smell it at all. But there is a honey note... so typical of Ellie Saab fragrances, they somehow always have honey notes in them. I don't like honey notes that much. The scent is powdery, even soapy powdery, as if I still smell nuts, really old nuts that have been lying in the kitchen cupboard for a long time, all mixed together, you can't recognize what exactly this scent smells like. Not my direction. I definitely like the first version of the fragrance "Girl of Now" better, as you can smell the pistachio note very clearly and it smells much more pleasant and interesting.

I am addicted!
Absolutely intoxicating scent that I never expected to love so much! I can’t stop smelling myself. The opening of sweet, warm pineapple just makes me happy. The roasted pistachio and vanilla keep the beauty going. The almond is so creamy and sweet. The scent stays with me for entire day. I feel beautiful when I wear it. A keeper for sure.

Also for " big " girls
Around the Girls of now I had always made a bow - I suspected but a girlie fragrance.

Yet I should have known better, because the Poison Girls - EdT and EdP surprised me with their adult statement.

Such purified I tried then but Girl of now - shine.

And also here welcomes me a round mature fragrance, with which I do not feel trimmed to "professional youth ".

I have long since outgrown the little girl image - although I think that " teens " with this yet very feminine - not girly - fragrance could be overdressed.

Shine puts me - in the name boldest meaning - in a mild golden light - like candlelight.
The fragrance is also wearable during the day - but its soft sweetness fits perfectly into the evening - to go out fine, or just lolling comfortably on the sofa.

It conveys a quiet closeness that is averse to noisy places.
A fragrance for private togetherness - or even for cultivated leisure hours alone.

The pistachio works musig piquant to bright pineapple and clear pear - but is dimmed by beguiling ylang-ylang and creamy almond milk.
Orange blossom warms the fragrance - overpowdered by iris.
Shine is creamy and powdery at the same time - topped by sweet vanilla.
Patchoulie forms the noble frame and offers a casually elegant finish.

Even my fragrance-critical husband feels addressed by Shine - and drops benevolently the word " feminine ".
There I am with him d`accord.
In the fragrance even resonates a quiet eroticism .

A gentle seducer, which is especially us " big girls " good to faces.

I've tested him many times
I first tried the scent of the Elie Saab Girl of Now. But I soon realized there were too many almonds, it smelled like marzipan and I don't like this smell. Together in the composition with the pistachios I find the scent quite strong around the nose. Then Girl of now Shine came to the perfumeries and I dared to compare the two fragrances again. Personally I find it quite similar and yet I don't notice the almond as much as its predecessor. But because I wasn't sure if this fragrance was too strong for my nose, I just tried it again and again in the perfumery at the tester or on my wrist. When it went on sale on the set, I dared and didn't regret it. :)
