Lilacs & Gooseberries 100ml – Sharp Juicy Floral with White Amber

Lilac and dark gooseberry over smooth white amber. A floral that is sharp rather than sweet — the gooseberry gives it an acidity that cuts through the lilac and keeps the whole thing from turning powdery, which is the usual fate of lilac fragrances.

The notes

• Top — gooseberry, tart and green
• Heart — lilac, full and unmistakable
• Base — white amber, smooth and lingering

When to wear it

Spring and summer, day into evening. Distinctive enough to be a signature scent — people will ask what you are wearing, which is not something you can say about most florals.

Why the 100ml

Better value per ml, and this is a scent people tend to stick with rather than rotate. The white amber base gives it good longevity, so a bottle lasts.
