The first impression upon application evokes a charming vintage lipstick accord—powdery, waxy, and softly floral. These facets intertwine with sharper, slightly heady notes, creating a shifting, almost theatrical experience. As the fragrance unfolds, it becomes smoother and more floral-powdery; any animalic nuances, if perceptible, merely add warmth and depth. The sillage is initially strong, easily noticeable for several hours. On fabric, it lingers as an intimate scent throughout the day. The quality-to-price ratio is excellent. The bottle carries the charm of a bygone era, reminiscent of the 1980s. A beautiful vintage composition—it’s a pity I cannot compare this experience to the original from 1936.
