Scent:
- ITI: Interesting. The scent shifts under my nose, moving from a zesty floral to a slightly lemon tone, which leads to the spice of the carnation with a honeyed undertone.
- Wet: Frilly carnation, dew-kissed, is upfront, surrounded with waxy, clear gardenia and a curl of lemon peel, which lightens the florals without moving the scent too far into the citrus family.
- Dry: After 2 hours, the gardenia has moved forward, edged with carnation and a little lemony twist at the back. For some reason, the combination reminds me of night-blooming jasmine.
Other Impressions: None.
