Melon Aldehyde (naturalny)

I was worried a natural melon note would smell like candy, but this stays crisp and green instead. Layered under a floral it adds this juicy lift without turning syrupy.

The melon note smells like actual ripe cantaloupe rather than that fake candy aroma I was expecting, and the aldehyde keeps it crisp instead of syrupy. I've been wearing it alone on hot days and it holds up without turning sharp.

The aldehyde opening is sharp at first spray, almost fizzy, but it settles into that juicy honeydew smell within ten minutes. I use it layered under a plain musk and it adds a nice watery lift without turning soapy. Only wish the throw lasted past the two-hour mark.
