What wearers say

“Pretty and effortless summer scent. Personally, I even wear it in winter, because I like to smell fresh and clean. It's the perfect blend of aquatic and ozonic without it being nauseating. Watermelon and kiwi are the stars. After a few minutes, it became more tangy and musky, but you can still perceive the juicy sugar of the fruits which makes it more balanced. It is similar to Ocean di gioa. I don't have this one because I have L'impératrice. Sillage is moderate as the performance. It last 4h-5h on my skin. Its perfect for the office as its non offensive and soft.”

“This smells divine - fruity, sweet, and fresh but not immature. Watermelon and rhubarb stand out to me in the opening. Lasts for 5+ hours on me, and I can still smell watermelon at the end of the day. This holds up in winter too, and has a moderate sillage which is lovely! In summer can be a bit cloying and sickly sweet, so a couple of sprays is enough for me.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“This fragrance has become my everyday go-to during summertime, unlocking a flood of memories tied to countless summer adventures.Its devine feminine blend of fruity, sweet, and fresh notes, with the sweetness of watermelon and the refreshing touch of rhubarb, captures the essence of summer without feeling immature. Despite some reviews claiming a weak sillage, I've found that, when applied to clear, lotioned skin, it certainly lasts the day.”
