So my review might be not relevant cause my bottle is suuuper old, recently found it while cleaning crap, it's not even green like that so they might have formulated. But I had to type it out cause I recently experienced Calvin Klein Escape, and to me this does was whatever escape was trying to do- RIGHT. Escape is super screechy and has a very obnoxious synthetic melon/carnations attack? maybe it was really just ugghhh headache and washed it off I just couldn't. This one at least my bottle, gives a citrus syrup with very slight melon, then soft florals/woodiness to make it nice and "perfumey", beautiful tbh CK Escape wishesss lol. Bright and sunny! However as I said my bottle is old, when I google original versions I see pics that look like mine it's deep golden/bronze yellow with a hint of green juice (honestly magical now that I look at it xD) foggy glass bottle...not this obvious green situation...if it was reformulated and is weaker now.. what can I say :(.

This is a Lush Greener Version of Chanel No 5 i love the Mint green Coloring of the bottle. reminds me of a 18th Century Rococo Painting by Jean Honore Fragonard paintings with it's plump bodies rosy cheeks Aristrocratic Love play Lavish Pastel Petticoats rouge to the clevage. wigs Powdered Wigs Vividi's Spring Allegro theme Playing Marie Antoinette Walking in her garden with her ladies in wainting. with her Children before the French Revolution. This is a Refreshing Fragrance this whould be perfect for 18th Century Aristrocratic Ladies

When I first fell in love with this one I couldn't describe it. But now I'm happy to know this is a chypre. A transparent one. Aquatic balances mimosa, melon balances thyme. It's a bit salty, a touch soapy, floral. It's well blended. It's sexy and carefree. The perfect time for this is that slightly melancholic moment right at the end of summer. Autumn is around the corner, but you take a deep breath of the sea for the last time before the holidays come to an end. Very Spanish in spirit.

This scent is fresh, but also has a sensual allure to it. I think due to this balance it could be a day or evening fragrance. I have heard some of the reviews say it wears off quickly but I have to say the same is not true for me. My partner fell in love with this scent and as we spent the first day I wore this together, he would breath it in from time to time and remind me this is intoxicating to him form morn to eve.
