Creation 1984

Even though it’s bold and intense, this scent has a romantic side. I remember a colleague who played the violin wearing it; now she's retired, but thinking of her brings back the aroma. It feels like the perfume is made with red Chinese flowers. The passion fruit and blackberry combo used to make me so happy, and then there’s that jasmine petal note—definitely unique! If you’re into scents with personality, this one’s a must-try!

This isn't your typical floral-fruit bouquet—it's a rich chypre fragrance with a strong, old-school vibe. It reminds me of those classic perfume sets from years ago, which feels almost museum-worthy. The scent has an aged, almost soap-like quality that feels heavy and overwhelming—kind of like when you get hit with a headache and then nausea. Despite all that, it sticks around for a while, so I couldn't scrub it off my wrist even after using half the bar. It also brings to mind Rochas's Byzance, which has a similar weighty feel. While it's not something I'd hand out as a gift, especially not to my mother-in-law, it definitely leaves an impression.

A unique floral scent, this perfume is incredibly strong. When reviewing it, I don’t pick up any fruit notes upfront—just floral with a touch of honey. The woody base of sandalwood and patchouli stands out, along with gardenia, tuberose, daffodil, ylang-ylang, and musk. Peach and citrus become more apparent as the fragrance evolves. The sillage is incredibly strong—so much so it could overwhelm someone. While I can see it working well on the right person, it feels a bit too intense for me personally.

The scent is quite unique and bold. Not everyone's scent, though it resonates with me. The design is lacking, especially the bulky plastic cap on the full size. The compact mini version, however, is quite appealing compared to the larger packaging, which feels underwhelming. It stands out awkwardly in my collection.

A delightful mix of peach, mango, citrus, gardenia, and woody notes makes this perfume perfect for summer. It’s better than similar scents like Sand & Sable. Imagine yourself in a white summer cotton dress, strolling along the soft white sand by the crystal-clear blue waters, with starfishes at your feet and a gentle warm breeze tousling your hair.
