Fresh, light water
It starts out really apple-y, though grapefruit, pink pepper and black currant are there underneath. When the first blast of apple is fading, the pink pepper and grapefruit takes over. To me, this is a good thing, since the apple note is not my favourite. An hour later it turns floral. A lovely bouquet of jasmine and gardenia in particular settles on the skin, quietly but so nice. The floral heart is insisting, staying for two to three hours before the encore from the powdery patchouli-musky blend.
The bottle is pretty interesting. Slightly rotated about its own axis and quite heavy. Usually I do not find EA’s bottles more than avarage, but this has design quality. I like the metal detail on the sides and the chunky look with the checkered glass pattern. This is one that calls for being placed on the shelf on display.
EA UEL is a flanker, that does not get the attention it should have. I know none of the other four: original, absolu, fraiche or Luxe. But I do know that Eau Légère - translated to light water - is a very well composed floral-fruity scent with enough freshness to accompany you on a warm day in spring or during the summer. I am curious to smell Untold Fraiche one day, since this is actually very ‘fraiche’. Also because UF gets a rating of 8.6.
