Sternanis

I had been thinking about buying one of Hermes' Jardins for the summer - so far I only liked the Nile Garden very much, but now there is a new one. Unfortunately it smelled like cucumbery-humid Uhukleber, so I walked on and ended up with Jil Sander. I had read about Sunlight, so I tested it first - too obscure and somehow a bit musty. Then Lumière - great! The fresh floral of the Jardins (something between Sur le Toit and Monsieur Li), but rather a bit woody-washed, and a good grapefruit. I also mean to recognize a little bit of mango at the beginning.
This is exactly the kind of summer scent I was looking for - flowery, but not soapy or pompous, slightly citric with no hint of rinse, unsweet, and a light green-stalked peony note with a hint of fog machine that always reminds me of the black Dita von Teese scent (and a bit of jasmine noir), there's on top, without degenerating into a smoky evening scent.
The only thing that makes me devalue the fragrance a bit is the so-lala durability and something slightly synthetic-stinging, which at the end (fortunately only very close) shines through, this note which I notice in about 80-90% of all newer fragrances (what is it?? That must have a name).
The fragrance may not be very original, but it is really well made and for me the perfect everyday fragrance for warmer days. He is in a good mood and does not disturb anyone, and you don't always have to attract attention with extraordinary scents. In my opinion, the fragrance as a commodity has just as much right to exist as the fragrance as a work of art, and the price is accordingly acceptable here

I don't know what scent was copied here, but it's not Ange ou Démon. It smells a little peppery and herbal at the beginning, but that was it with the similarities. Then it becomes indefinably flowery-fruity, with a note that reminds me of Jennifer Lopez' Live (currant?) and some grapefruit. Miss Eimerkopf has much less wine gum sweetness. Citrus and rose are definitely there, and it has something slightly bitter lemon-like.
Unfortunately the scent doesn't last at all, it has somehow no base at all and is simply gone after 1-2 hours. I don't find the scent bad in itself, but it's very very weak, more like an EdC or one of those perfumed refreshment sprays. Maybe it's suitable for midsummer?
Like its durability, the bottle is absolutely underground... but luckily in the 1€ shop there are also nice decoration foils ;) or you can fill it directly, preferably in something that sprays stronger.
For the price it is in any case a quite nice, slightly effervescent citric-floral scent, away from all the sweet, musty or penetrant-aquatic waters that you would find in the area
