Feels Incomplete
This is a very dry, green fragrance. Almost as if the lily is just starting to bud out as opposed to full bloom. Dries down lightly musky on me. Honestly, this feels incomplete to me. I wish it had a little bit of something else, maybe vanilla, or amber, or tonka - something to round it out and add a little creaminess and depth. The only thing that saves this from being a complete flop is the neroli, though I wish that note was a little stronger. I am not picking up the ylang or cedar at all, so if you have issues with those notes, that shouldn't bother you here. The saffron is so light it's barely detectable, and the pepper disappears right after opening. It would have been nice if that note stuck around a while to add a little more interest.
You can spray this with abandon because silage is light, though the longevity is better than that. I got about 5 hours out of it before it became a skin scent. Overall, this is an okay for me, but if you are expecting something on the line of Mathilde Laurent's Baiser Vole masterpiece, don't. This is about as far from that as you can get. I'll reserve this for summer wear. Hopefully, it will bloom then. I also think, because it is so light, it might work well for layering. We will see.
