Miutine

Strawberry is the note of the year. However, you can tell it was not chosen as the main note of this fragrance just because of a trend: Dominique Ropion knew exactly what he was doing. A sweet, airy start, with a gum-inspired strawberry approaches my nose as I spray it on my wrist. Then it transforms a little into something warmer, more grounded, more earthy. The strawberry note remains present in a certain way. The amber and vanilla are in the final stage of this perfrume but they do not give me diabetes ;) Longevity and sillage are not the most remarkable aspects of the fragrance. However, the scent is nice, feminine, and youthful.

Strawberry forms the dominant accord of this composition, yet it is refined by powdery notes that seem to tame its gourmand, dessert-like character, lending it a more mature, boudoir quality. The floral tones, slightly heady, make this fragrance truly distinctive. The base resonates with vanilla, warmth, and femininity—still carrying a trace of strawberry. The bottle perfectly captures the spirit of the perfume: not a sugary pink strawberry, but a sophisticated, elegant fruit that adds a touch of intrigue.

Very subtle, very nice, delicate, floral and feminine. Also very short lived. 😑 7.5/10 Not loud enough for me to buy a full size bottle, but might be worth it to some.
