Real talk
It's aldehydic. It's fruity. It smells like the most beautiful pastry you ever ate. If that sounds like a compliment, it is. This was the original sweet-tooth fragrance.Le Fruit Défendu
That aldehydic opening is the whole conversation. It's bright, sparkling, disarming. Then the florals and oriental base arrive and you realize this isn't a simple daytime scent at all.Givenchy III
