Our take

It opens with a bright slap of guava and mandarin, the angelica adding a green, almost bitter edge that keeps it from being purely a fruit cocktail. The sweetness is there, juicy and tropical, but it settles quickly into a lotus and tuberose heart that feels powdery and aquatic, like a floral soap left in a steamy bathroom. The base of musk and woody notes is barely a whisper, a faint clean skin scent that vanishes within a couple of hours. This is a fragrance that arrives with a bang and leaves before the conversation starts.

Lovestruck is a crushed tropical flower petal on a warm windowsill by noon, already dry and forgotten. It feels synthetic in a cheerful, mainstream way, never pretending to be anything but a breezy spritz for a sunny day. The longevity and sillage are frankly disappointing, a 2.43 and 2.26 respectively, which means you will need to douse yourself and still expect to fade into the background. It is a peek, not a presence.

This one suits a young woman who wants a light, cheerful floral for daytime, maybe a first perfume or a mood lift for spring and summer brunches. Skip it if you want any kind of lasting impression or depth. Wear it to a garden party or a casual afternoon, but keep a travel atomizer in your bag. Is it worth the trouble of constant reapplying? For the price, it is a pleasant enough little flirt, but it never quite makes good on its promise.
