My perfect date night fragrance.
I use this scent for mostly special occasions. It's great on date night, not too overpowering, light flirty scent. Soft yet sensual and clean scent. Classy. This was the first time I had purchased this scent, I love the earthy, clean scents and this delivers! I will be purchasing again and again. Light and clean scent you could use daily, but I like to use this for the up close moments.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
