Our take

A weekend bag sits packed on the bed, ready for a long weekend in a city you have never visited. This is the mood of Party in Shanghai. It is a fragrance for the woman who wants to smell like a celebration, for the friend who suggests the second location before the first drink even arrives. There is a distinct brightness here that feels like walking out of a cool hotel lobby into a wall of humid, perfumed air. It is an extrovert in a bottle, unapologetically pretty and entirely unconcerned with subtlety. The scent captures the specific energy of a crowded rooftop at golden hour, where the air is thick with heat and the promise of a long night ahead.

The litchi and raspberry here are succulent and distinctly watery, smelling more like the fruit itself than a candy replica. This juicy quality is supported by a peony note that lends a fresh, green leafiness to the sweetness, preventing the composition from becoming sticky. Beneath the fruit, the white woods and musk provide a soft, clean landing pad. It keeps the scent from floating away into the ether, grounding the tropical accords with a creamy, pale wood finish. It smells like a silk dress that feels cool to the touch, a garment that catches the light with every movement.
