Frésia

I've worn a lot of florals that turn sharp or soapy on my skin, but this one stays soft and delicate from morning to afternoon. It's the kind of light, refined scent I reach for when I want something elegant without it announcing itself.

The freesia note actually smells airy and delicate instead of soapy, which is hard to find. It wears close to the skin for a few hours, then fades gently rather than turning sharp. Exactly the refined, understated scent I hoped for.

I've been hunting for a freesia that doesn't smell like soap, and this one actually captures that airy, delicate floral quality without turning sharp. It wears close to the skin and lasts a good few hours, which is more than I expected from something this light.
