Pros & Cons
- ✅ Scénario d'Eté is a light summer edition of the wonderful Cinéma. The perfume opens with intense notes of sweet and fruity mandarin, sunny orange and refreshing lime. ... The base is a dream come true of warm notes. ... Yes, I do feel like THE sun goddess while wearing Scénario d'Eté! The scent stays close to the skin but lasts for more than 6 hours.
- ✅ Lovely! Beautiful, fresh, delicious. Very natural smelling, and beautifully smooth, and also a little creamy as if there's coconut in it. ... Altogether it lasts about 9 hours. Very nice. And I get many compliments too. It's really elegant and classy, and I love it!
- ✅ Gorgeous bottle, beautiful scent, however, I would not repurchase. Why? Simply because it stays on me for about 15 minutes tops - my deo has more lasting power!! ... Take 2: Was such a hot day today that I reached for this once again, for want of a citrussy cooling aura ...what can I say? Second time lucky, I guess. Smelling divine and its still there one hour later! ... Don't mind spritzing this more often so it stays longer. Very refreshing.
- ❌ I was expecting to smell a Cinema flanker, but it's just like a light summer movie: very very peachy - something that I've experienced a lot until now. Instead of growing deeper and oriental or something, as on some decent base notes, this one gets fresher, like a bowl of peeled cucumbers and some more peaches. Almost aquatic, I might say. Good longevity, but nothing remarkable about the smell.
- ❌ Being a big fan of the original Cinema I decided to try out this 'Cinema for summer' in hopes of being able to wear this lovely scent year round. Unfortunately while it's 'nice' it's not similar enough to the original for me. On my skin it opens with lemon and more lemon. Bright and sparkly, not fresh squeezed, but almost bordering furniture polish (a nice one) ... I don't care for the opening and am not fond enough of the dry down to keep in my collection.
- ❌ I like the lime and the orange notes, but somehow on my skin results very chemical. Maybe it's the musk that ruin everything. It smells like deodorant, soap and detersive.
