Anyway, from Juliette Has A Gun was released in 2013. The perfumer behind this creation is Romano Ricci. It has the top notes of Lime and Neroli, middle notes of Jasmine, and base notes of Ambroxan, Hedione, Musk, and Woody Notes.
Tried this on a card at first and quite literally couldn't smell it. The Lady was trying to convince me it smelled like snow...hmmmm...I think she's heard too much marketing bullshit and it's poisoned her mind! To me it smells exactly, exactly like my mum used to when i was a child, after a bubble bath (not in a weird way) on a Sunday night and I'd give her a hug before I went to bed...so it conjures a comforting vibe. Powdery, soft and lovely on the skin really clean. The neroli is present but not at all massively floral it's an obscure, beguiling, mutated mixture. Not sure what the molecules bring to the party but it certainly has good longevity for something so subtle and slight. A bit feminine but fresh and I would wear it. Update: Ah ha it's Ambroxan doesn't smell typical to me I'd assumed it was some obscure molecule. I bought this shortly after my review(I've barely worn it in truth) but I love it! What a wonderful take on minimal construction...And this is a real strange one for me as I adore deep dark woods, resins and incense this couldn't be further from JHG Anyway. It's just great!
