This is a majestic vintage, albeit very soft on performance on my skin or at least, it wears like one cloud with hard to distinguish features, probably due to the aging.

The opening has a bit of everything; acidic, sweet, fruity, but overall the floral side has the upper hand.

As it morphs, you get one of the best mixes of sweetness and florals. It’s rich, almost syrupy resinous, but you still get some brightness from the flowers. Sensual warm jasmine and a tinge of the ylang-ylang come to mind mostly with a honeyed edge covering everything.

I’ve since bought another miniature of this EDT (see photo below) and my thoughts stand. If you get this one in decent condition, it’s a lovely fragrance.
