Svetskaya Lvitsa Zima Blizko

Similar in structure to Brocard’s The Socialite EdP, the Winter Edition is a cooler and slightly more aloof fragrance that blends it’s citrus and fruit (pear) notes with aquatic elements and the sharpness of winter ice. Working with a heart of rose, jasmine and violet and an initial burst of lemon, grapefruit and orange, Socialite (Winter Edition) fully maintains it’s cooling arc for the duration of it’s life.

This is a very pretty light floral scent that I think would be really good for younger women. I ordered this from Bloom Perfume in the U.K. The aquatic note makes me think this is more suitable for spring rather than winter, even though this is called “winter socialite.” It does kind of remind me of more of a body spray. Like something you can get at Bath and Body Works. This is interesting because another Brocard fragrance, modern classic, has such a richer profile and seems like it could be from a top design house like Chanel. So the difference in quality of fragrances from the same house is really interesting.
