Daina

This is a light summer fragrance, with abstract, vibrant greenery filtered through by the sun, and abstract white flowers. Then comes a slightly bitter, non-indolic jasmine. It's mock orange. It resembles jasmine, and the tobacco leaves add the tartness of a broken twig. When a barely hinted, sweet nectarous note arrives, the greenery transforms into linden blossom, and the tobacco leaves seem like black tea. The musky base is light. This perfume, over 40 years old, has held up remarkably well. It's simply fantastic! The green notes are made from a substance that can resemble either linden or lily-of-the-valley, depending on the arrangement, and it's a vibrant, exotic scent these days.
