Adèle

Adele is a delicate and pretty floral that envelops you in a gossamer cloud as it wafts around you. But, don't be fooled by its graceful beauty. This classy number has depth, backbone and surprising longevity, thanks to its base. You may forget you're wearing it, but others will constantly compliment and remark upon how good you smell! It's perfect for spring and summer dressier events and even office friendly. I would love to see a line of body products for this one.

This is a very pretty, very creamy and smooth white floral. My favourite is the opening (fresh osmanthus I think) but the dry down is still really pretty with a very creamy effect. I’m not sure if it’s the narcissus because I’m not familiar with how that’s supposed to smell, but it’s almost as if there’s a laconic note in it. Very smooth, very inoffensive floral. Perfect daytime or office scent. Like a well, put together person wearing beige or white who isn’t trying too hard to be noticed. Edit: smells exactly like kilian Good Girl Gone Bad which i just recently blind bought. They smell the same (has 6 out of the 7 notes the same, the only difference is amber vs. ambergris ....). Do yourself a favour and get this one, so much more affordable and smell the same. GGGB has maybe ever so slightly better performance but just get this and overspray.

Adèle is a fairly standard and straightforward osmanthus-based white floral scent, however I must say it’s done well. The osmanthus itself is very soft and smooth, almost leathery but in the most delicate way. Combine this with a sweet, bubblegum-like tuberose and green touches of narcissus and you’re left with an eloquent medley of thick white florals - then elevated by the subtlest whisper of jasmine and rose. The osmanthus in here almost comes across slightly tropical at times, giving the scent a very refreshing and addictively sweet yet very much floral scent profile. This is probably too simplistic for me to consider owning a bottle but if you love osmanthus this is one to look out for.

EASY ON ME Go easy on me, baby I was still a child Didn't get the chance to Feel the world around me Had no time to choose What I chose to do So go eeeeeeee-e-asy on me I had good intentions And the highest hopes But I know right now That probably doesn't even show Go easy on me, baby It's okay, Adele! You're just a good girl gone bad.

If you like Gritti's Tutu or Gritti's Tutu Blanc, then you will probably enjoy Adele. It's a light, creamy white floral fragrance that's delicate and refreshing. The cons are that it has minimal sillage and does not last long on the skin.
