Very pretty!
Super pretty scent, very light and summery. The orange smells bright and fresh and natural, as if you just peeled into one. I wasn't sure if I'd like the combo with basil, but it's so well blended I can't imagine not liking it. Pretty linear and not super long lasting, but still beautiful and well worth it in my opinion.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
