Summer transforming to fall
My first impression that I'd say it's summery, I don't find anything heavy or Femme Fatale here. There's some spicyness, but not very much to my nose. Is there such a thing as "sweet flowers"? Sweet rose maybe? It stays a little citrusy on me but not sharp at all, more fruity. Very inoffensive. Definitely for summer, perhaps early fall... but who knows, it might be stronger in very cold weather. That happens once in a while. My problem with it is that it's just not strong enough - but as you may know, I'm into the heavy hitters. The louder, the better, lol! Longevity - moderate, not fantastic. Sillage - weak to moderate.
But, but, but - I have to revise my opnion. After a more thorough testing I found out it actually does last well! Believe it or not, sillage has grown on me, like as if it disappears and then comes back after a while. Never seen that before. I didn't sniff my wrist enough the first time. The drydown that sets in fully after maybe 3 hours is beautiful and seems to be better for fall/winter than for summer. So - respray often and it's a fruity summer scent, leave it be and it's a spicy/woody fall scent.
