I've been wearing this on rainy mornings and it blooms differently than anything else in my collection. The floral opening is soft rather than sharp, and it holds for a good six hours on skin.

The magnolia note is so true to the real flower—soft and lemony rather than the syrupy sweet I usually get from florals. It wears close to the skin but lasts a solid few hours, and I keep catching it on my scarf. Easily the most artistic fragrance I've picked up this year.

I was nervous ordering a fragrance blind, but the magnolia here is soft and slightly lemony rather than the heavy floral I expected. It wears close to the skin for a few hours, which is fine for the office.
