Bottle Design and Artwork: This is a standard vial / imp size (1/32 oz) that has been decanted from Ajevie. The label features the year and the scent name in stylized large black font with the perfume company name in a more normal and smaller black font underneath it. The back of the label has the scent notes in small black font, while the spine of the label features the name of the company and year in burgundy and red font.
Scent:
- ITI: Floral and creamy, this smells like a really good lotion with soft white florals and a touch of lychee gauze at the back. I wish the lychee were more forward, but it’s pleasant so far.
- Wet: Oh goodness, yes. It’s floral peony lychee, fresh, clean, creamy, and delicate like the tinkling of glass bells, but make it fruity with a gentle wafting of angelica and rosehip tea at the very end. It smells like a high-end scent, something that Vera Wang might put out, but just a touch sweeter.
- Dry: After 3 hours, I’m left with a mostly angelica and peony tea with a light ylang ylang creamy powderiness behind that and a subtle peppercorn twist at the very end. I’m not getting much lychee clearly, other than a dawn-toned fruity freshness. It’s still quite pretty and sophisticated, but I want my lychee note to stay for hours.
Other Impressions: [Wet] “It’s like almost like sea breeze turned into hard candy with like a tiny hint of dill at the end. ” -Tony
