Magnolia and rose as a dream couple
When I first sniffed it, I was immediately in love. Magnolia and rose are old acquaintances, but to me this combination sounds absolutely fantastic. It is a perfectly coordinated and well-rehearsed duo that performs a floral melody in a very successful way. Both the magnolia and the rose make me think of light pink flowers. It's not about sexy blood red, but about delicate light pink tones.
The floral main theme is introduced by wafer-thin citrus notes and rounded off by slightly woody final accords.
Too bad the fragrance doesn't last too long. Still one of my favorites.

Ode to spring
Lilac is a seasonal scent, and I associate it with this particular time of year when nature has become strong enough after hibernation to awaken the first flowers to new life. For me, lilac is one of the ultimate spring scents that is unmistakable and puts me in a good mood.
Although the lilac smells so beguiling, it keeps its secrets very well by not allowing its natural fragrance to be captured for perfume production. This makes this perfume, which is composed of fragrance essences from other plants, all the more beautiful. A velvety, round lilac fragrance that you can always enjoy when the lilac blossom season is over (unfortunately much too quickly). However, you really have to be in love with lilac to really wear it as a perfume, as it is often "abused" as an artificial one-dimensional room fragrance and therefore does not have a properly established reputation in the perfume world. In my opinion, however, Lilas is so successful that it defies this dubious reputation. If you appreciate floral fragrances, you should definitely give this perfume a chance.

Delicious Crema Catalana
I got to know Bianco Latte after a blind tasting when, in addition to the fragrances presented, you could also purchase additional samples that the organizer of the blind tasting had with her. "This is the hyped Bianco Latte", "I absolutely have to have this", "This is the most delicious fragrance I've ever had" - most of the participants were totally enthusiastic about the fragrance and the samples went like hot cakes. As I'm not normally a fan of gourmand fragrances, I was rather skeptical and probably biased when I first sprayed it on, because my first association was "over-sugared panna cotta". However, as I love panna cotta and other dairy desserts, I still wanted to give the fragrance a chance and bought a sample.
The next day I sprayed the perfume on... And knew immediately that it had become one of my favorite fragrances! I don't know where this change of heart came from, maybe it was the sun that finally came out after a rainy weekend, or the fact that I was able to perceive and enjoy the fragrance in peace and quiet... In any case, I was in love. If this perfume were a lake, I would love to be a fish in it :D I could literally bathe in this fragrance and be overwhelmed by the delicious waves.
The first association with panna cotta has given way to an idea of crema catalana, which in my opinion comes closest to this perfume in terms of both consistency and taste.
For me, the initially delicate and creamy texture of the fragrance becomes coated with a layer of caramel over time that is truly mouth-watering. It's actually not a complicated fragrance that gradually develops and shows different scent facets, but it simply remains stably delicious, just like Crema Catalana, where you know what to expect and look forward to it.
The longevity and sillage are brutal. For me, it's the perfect summer fragrance that transports me to Spain in July, where I can eat as much Crema Catalana as I can, and that somehow doesn't hurt the figure :D

Apple and lemon tart
I once ordered Etoile after sniffing a fragrance wipe that came with an order from Fragonard.
Apple and citrus notes dominate, creating a bright, slightly sweet but fresh character to the fragrance. Etoile could be an apple-lemon tart, which has become very fruity and not too sweet. The floral heart notes gradually balance out the fruity top notes, and the delicious fragrance then becomes more prudent, calmer, but hardly loses any of its brightness. At the very end, it becomes soft and smooth like the lightly soaked pastry base of the tart, and the last bite leaves you full and happy.
Decent longevity and sillage, perfect in spring and summer.

Artificial sweetness
When I first sniffed it in the duty free, I was enchanted, but on closer inspection later, the magic has faded. When worn on the skin, the fragrance is unfortunately too artificial for me, the strawberry and mango too aggressive. I wanted to write that the composition is "over-sugared", but actually I have to think of a sweetener, not real sugar. The perfume reminds me of a huge artificial strawberry with a greasy layer of color that wasn't even applied well. You can not only see the plastic, you can smell it too.
The bottle is very nice, but in my opinion the perfume is not worth the money, unless you like artificial fragrances. However, the longevity is very good.
