Review of Blue Talisman Extrait de Parfum by Scented_Seraphina

Extrait de Parfum opens with notes of pear and bergamot. However, the mandarin and ginger found in the original Eau de Parfum have been omitted, which, in my opinion, takes away some of the fragrance's brightness and sparkle. The heart features orange blossom and jasmine, but on my skin these notes are largely overshadowed by the prominent sandalwood in the base. As a result, the composition feels noticeably woodier and less vibrant than the original. Longevity on my skin is around six hours. Unfortunately, this version doesn't work for me, so I'm pleased I bought a full bottle of the original Blue Talisman rather than the Extrait.
