Does not bother the nose
A surprisingly fruity opening, which I hadn't expected from a 5th Avenue.
But pretty quickly we get to the flowers and unfortunately it gets a bit soapy. One look at the fragrance pyramid and my eye lingers on the African violet. Violets of all varieties have often caught my eye in fragrance pyramids recently and have never been particularly pleasant. That's why I attribute this slight soapiness to it.
But I like the other flowers and they take the violet into their midst so that it doesn't stand out too much.
Incidentally, the fruits have disappeared completely after a brief appearance in the top note. At least my nose doesn't pick up anything fruity anymore.
After about half an hour, a creaminess joins the flowers. And I can already detect the patchouli. The fragrance slowly turns in a slightly woody-floral-creamy direction.
Overall, I have to say that the fragrance changes very quickly and seems to have reached the base incredibly quickly. The overall longevity is okay, but by no means outstanding.
Although floral fragrances are not among my favorites, I have to admit that the scent is quite good. It certainly won't be one of my favorites, but it doesn't get on my nerves and I wouldn't have a problem with someone wearing it around me.
