Beautiful floral fragrance
I bought this blind from a recommendation & it did not disappoint. The fragrance is long-lasting & beautiful for day to day wear. It reminds me of walking into a florist shop full of freshly cut flowers. I’m normally a fan of oriental fragrances, so this is something new for me & I’m loving it.

Beautiful, dark, and too true to be just a perfume
The shift starts in the very early morning when fresh cuts are unloaded into the refrigerators.
Hyacinths of all colors smell something waxy and bitter, freesias of dew and soap bubbles, eucalyptus of a green pharmacy, polyanthus of poison, frozen tulips, and mimosa tightly pressed in boxes smell almost nothing because they have not yet recovered from the road.
A successful trading day ends with the destruction of the flower rows, the bitterness of torn greenery, and muddy water in galvanized buckets.
Beautiful, dark, and too true to be just a perfume

Glorious!
I ordered a sample to try and WOW!.... At first whiff Saskia takes me back to a humid spring day, walking down a street lined with gardenia bushes, in Brisbane, after the rain.... that's what it smells like! Humid, yet fresh, uplifting, green and covered in white spring flowers. It's a delightful fragrance! It's on my list of full bottles to acquire. Libertine offers an incredible service. So great to be able to do your fragrance discoveries in your own home.
