A gorgeous white floral scent. Very airy, dreamy, creamy infusion of white florals.
Classic for a reason. Gorgeous ambery floral.
One of the best things I've ever smelt... the smell is practically divine!
I absolutely love all hermes perfumes... Very elegant and fragile scent.
A gorgeous white floral scent... very classy, mature and elegant.
This is how you do an old money floral with personality, in a way that is enjoyable and intriguing without needing to be the main character.

The edt is intolerable.
A powerful and ladylike floral bomb that makes a grand entrance, but all that pomp can be a bit exhausting over time.
Is it just me or has a reformulation virtually taken the legs out from under 24F?
Overall, pleasant, very floral, very gardenia... but it is very grande dame.
It's a bit too much for me. The gardenia is very strong.
