I'm actively looking for a new perfume right now, and trying almost all the new releases at Letual, I couldn't help but notice this fragrance. Honestly, the first second I inhaled it, it almost captivated me. The name, in my opinion, is very well chosen - this bright mandarin accord truly evokes a storm of positive emotions, and it can safely be called "Joy". In the first few minutes, I had an association with a girl in an orange dress, dancing at some celebration in a crowd. I was almost ready to buy this mandarin fireworks, but... prudence suddenly prevailed, and I decided to test it on my skin. And, thank God! Now I can confirm that on the skin, it unfolds into ordinary spring flowers, and the mandarin note that captivated me disappears. This metamorphosis happens so quickly - in just five minutes on the skin. Oh, I thought this was the beginning of something wonderful. But, I repeat, the flowers that "Joy" transforms into don't cause aversion. On the contrary, they are even attractive in their own way. So be sure to test it on yourself - you might like it. I, however, was disappointed not only by the disappearance of the citrus note but also by the fragrance's longevity - after just two hours, it's almost imperceptible, while Kenzo on my other wrist continues to delight with its sillage. For such a price, I would have liked more longevity. In short, love didn't happen, and I continue my search ))
I completely stumbled upon this fragrance by chance when I was looking for something warm and sweet for winter. In the end, I chose Life - it's fresh and has a pronounced floral note. If I had to describe it in one word, I'd say: spring-like!! It's a true hymn to spring. When I spray it, I imagine walking down a spring street, seeing the first greenery, and smelling blooming apple trees. This feeling arises because after applying the fragrance, you immerse yourself in a floral bouquet. Spring-like and fresh. I especially pick up water lily, and I also feel lily of the valley, even though it's not in the pyramid. At first, the fragrance is quite sharp, so if you overdo it, you might get a headache. But after a couple of hours, it becomes softer and more delicate. The flowers start to mix with a light fruity tartness. Before disappearing, it says goodbye with a gentle citrus note. Longevity on the skin is about three hours, and on clothes, the citruses are audible even the next day. The sillage is close to the skin, only those nearby will feel it. This isn't the kind of fragrance that will make people follow you to catch the lingering notes. What a pity, I like it when a fragrance leaves a subtle trail. Overall, I like it. It's suitable for warm weather (if you don't overdo it), but it also smells beautiful, fresh, with a slight bitterness in winter. In my opinion, this is a fragrance for girls under 25 - young, carefree, and full of life, with eternal spring in their soul
At the beginning of my student years, when money was tight, I often ordered fragrances from Oriflame and Avon. This particular scent was a real disappointment for me and made me reconsider my preferences in favor of Oriflame. It was my first lesson that you can't trust catalog descriptions without smelling the fragrance beforehand. I fell for a beautiful description and, as a result, was left disappointed. The bottle, of course, looks attractive, but inside it hides a suffocating mixture! As soon as I sprayed even a drop, I was haunted by a sharp, intrusive smell that caused headaches. The woody note was particularly irritating, which both I and those around me felt, even though there was no wood in the fragrance pyramid. It also has longevity, which many consider a plus, but in this case, it became a real problem. Its sillage is also not bad, but due to the intrusiveness of the scent, I couldn't wear it for long and eventually gave it away to someone, I don't even remember who
After reading so many rave reviews about the "Delicate" line, I couldn't resist and ordered this fragrance. Even though life has taught me a lot, and I know you can't rely solely on reviews and descriptions, the desire to try this scent was too strong. So, I placed an order and, alas, was disappointed. I expected the fragrance to be delicate and sweet, with a cherry accent, slightly softened by almond and refreshing cedar. But instead, I got the smell of dusty, intrusive flowers. Unfortunately, there was no cherry (though, I admit, I didn't pay attention to the description myself - it only mentioned cherry blossom). Honestly, it's not the worst scent I've tried. Yes, it smells like those annoying flowers, but overall it's quite neutral. I could have used it "every day," but here's the problem - the longevity is simply zero. After half an hour, there's no trace of the scent left. There's no point even talking about the sillage. That's why I'm only giving it 2 stars - it would have deserved three if it had lasted on the skin at all
This fragrance, for me, is a true love story. It appeared in my life at the moment my first and only relationship began, and with it came those very "butterflies in my stomach" Every time I open the bottle, vivid memories of that May flood my mind, when everything around was imbued with love, the blossoming of nature, and, of course, the sweet floral scent of Lucia Starlight. So, as you understand, I can't be objective about it. Too much is connected to it. I remember falling in love with it when I saw it in the "Oriflame" catalog. It seemed incredibly delicate and floral to me, like a summer evening sky. But after purchasing it, I realized that the advertisement had deceived me - the fragrance turned out to be much sweeter and richer than I expected. It intoxicates, like something magical. But in this sweetness lies its danger: if you overdo it, you can "suffocate" both yourself and those around you. This fragrance is not for every woman. I imagine its owner in a light purple dress, with curls, standing on a balcony and breathing in the summer evening. Passion is readable in her eyes, and her image seems to merge with the magic of this evening. As for the fragrance itself, I can't pinpoint specific notes. It's very memorable and absolutely unique. To generalize, one could say it's a floral fragrance, but with a sharpness that quickly fades, leaving a sweet aftertaste. Its longevity is excellent - it lasted all day on me. And the sillage is such that it will remind people of you for a long time. I consider it one of "Oriflame"'s best and most ambiguous creations. I'm only deducting a star for its intensity, which requires caution, and for the fact that it's not universal - it won't suit everyone )
The fragrance evokes mixed feelings. I thought for three days: should I get it or not? In the end, I decided not to. Immediately after spraying, there's a very sweet and powerful mix of vanilla and candied plum. I can't say it's cloying, but the sweetness is just off the charts. At first, it seems too intrusive, and it would be hard to tolerate this sugary syrup. What a shame, because after an hour it becomes much more interesting and less loud. A pleasant bitterness appears, mixing with freshness and a light amber powderiness. It reminds me of the smell of spruce resin - fresh and slightly bitter, like after holding a pinecone in your hands. I think such a fragrance would be perfect for a confident woman with a striking appearance (I imagine a cool brunette) The longevity is simply excellent - it lasts about 8 hours on the wrist 🔥
The first luxury perfume I chose became a real discovery! My friend and I had been eyeing it for a long time when we walked around «Ile de Beauté» And so, before the New Year holidays, I decided to treat myself to such a gift. People's reactions to this scent are surprising: some detect a bright pear note, while others notice sweet floral accents!!! I myself perceived it differently the first time. When I applied it to a tester strip, it seemed like a sweet berry scent, although there's no hint of berries in the pyramid. But a month later, when I smelled it again before buying, I felt something magical. A warm, mysterious, and delicate scent that envelops you in an atmosphere of comfort and sensuality. In my opinion, the coffee note clearly dominates here. It's not a strong, invigorating coffee, but rather a creamy latte - so delicious and soft. This creamy coffee note is as if «wrapped» in a floral haze, which makes the scent more delicate and youthful. A very unusual and cozy perfume! When I spray it, I imagine a girl in an unbuttoned leather jacket and a chunky cream-colored sweater, leaning against a car door. In her hands, she holds a cup of warm latte. She slowly enjoys her coffee, quietly admiring the sunset. Red lipstick on her lips, and the reflection of the setting sun in her eyes. Fiery hair is loose and falls in light waves over her shoulders. The longevity of the scent is its huge plus: on the skin it lasts up to 6 hours (though it becomes closer to the body towards the end), and on clothes - until washing. I like how it combines opposites. There's audacity in it, but it's softened by floral tenderness. It's cozy, but at the same time, it has a certain sexuality. This scent will suit a young woman, not
