Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of 212 Summer begins with a citrus explosion: bergamot, lemon and mandarin create a refreshing and invigorating start.

In the heart of the fragrance, harmony of flowers and fruits reigns: jasmine and ylang-ylang give floral tenderness, while raspberry adds juicy sweetness.

The base of the composition is built on warm and sensual notes of amber, saffron, woody accord and musk, which ensure longevity and leave a soft, enveloping trail.

This combination creates a multifaceted fragrance that is perfect for the summer season.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Imperceptible

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

the fragrance features bright citruses mixed with juicy raspberry. sunny flowers add freshness, and musk gives it depth. it's truly light and vibrant, simply delightful. longevity is great, the sillage is pleasing but not overwhelming
5/5

How exciting this is! The opening with bright raspberry and lemon is simply captivating, and the spices add an interesting touch. Ylang and delicate jasmine create an atmosphere, and a woody-amber base completes the composition. This is definitely worth trying! 🌟
3/5

Mainly, you can smell raspberry with lemon, and a little bit of saffron adds interest. Overall, the fragrance isn't bad, but it too closely resembles others, lacking something special. Plus, the longevity leaves much to be desired
4/5
4
I smell it like this: sour lemon, raspberry that's barely tolerable, and a hint of floral notes with spices. In the base, musk, yes. Overall, the fragrance isn't bad, but it starts so sharply that this lemon makes my eyes sting
5/5
5
After my miniature ran out, I still tried to find a full bottle. Unfortunately, I couldn't find it, so I bought the remnants. The fragrance is, of course, lively and fresh, but it has something youthful about it. Raspberry with citruses creates a feeling of sweetness, as if it's candy. It's so bright and juicy, simply wonderful 😔
4/5
4
Out of all five bottles in my set, this one stands out as the most pleasant. It's simple, of course, but that's its charm - so light and easy to understand. Totally girlish, with a slight touch of playfulness. The fragrance has a chemical raspberry, sweet lemon drops, and a floral creamy note. A real boost of positivity, I really liked it. Too bad I only had a miniature)))
