Jigoo

The attack is green and reminiscent of a lemon garden after two days of rain. The citrus note settles and turns into the less pungent scent of a freshly cut grapefruit. The steamy scent of green trees remains, however.

A few minutes after the first spray, the full force of a rose pops in, from which the last raindrops just roll off. The surrounding pines steam out and the air smells of mountain pine.

Over time, it becomes more and more exotic. A fresh fruit plate with papaya, honeydew melon, banana and passion fruit, above squeezed a lime.

In the dry-down, I'm looking at a grande dame. The exotic fruits slowly become more neutral, it smells like lychee. Around that, however, the flowers unfold in all their fullness. It smells of perfumed jasmine tea and lily of the valley. In addition, the sharp green notes from a eucalyptus candy.

The scent is very aquatic and reminds me of exotic fruit and citrus with dewdrops beading off. On a test strip, the fragrance evaporates relatively quickly, but on the skin remains a dry-down, which is strongly reminiscent of Grande Dame fragrances (association: Chanel N°5). Here are especially the powdery notes of jasmine and lily of the valley (felt also something iris) in the foreground.
