My Impression

A synthetic apple perfume. The perfume makes a sharp opening with apple and ginger, and afterwards woody aromatic notes join the apple. It is a perfume with high general appeal, I don't like it much because of its synthetic quality, but it is not a bad scent. The synthetic quality probably comes from the ambroxan. It is a perfume with a batch problem, the old batches are said to be really strong, and I made my review based on the current batches.
