Colour Me Sky Blue

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. I think I have found a new summer fragrance to love. I definitely smell the peach and citrus at first sniff, but oh...the lovely amber included. Summer on the beach, with a good book, and aqua painted toenails. Yup. This one's a winner.

A lovely light floral, ideal for summer. It smells much more expensive than it is. Plain packaging, but a great fragrance. Very suited for teens -so light and pretty!

I smelled this in the perfume oil one day and said "wow! I WANT this fragrance." Then last Christmas, after months of watching and waiting, I bought one for myself....just due to all the hard work I put in at Yuletide (although I don't celebrate it) and because it was on discount. Enthusiasm: Gone. Now: Horror. What I thought was a beautiful creamy floral has turned into WET SKY BLUE PAINT ON ME! And I am not joking. Where did the woman who loved this scent go. She flipped on me, or is it this frigging perfume that flipped! Talk about a highly pristine, hospital clinical scent....somewhat like disinfectant (and not the pine one). And oh so musky - well disinfectants have musk, don't they?. My mother LOVES it on me. In fact that was how she found out I had a new perfume, she smelled it and EVERY time I sprayed it she come into my room saying "what is that wonderful scent I smell?" What "WHAT THE HELL IT IS I AM SMELLING" is what I ask myself when I take it out of the box and try it over and over again...still hoping for that first inspiration that lead me to buy! I am thinking to either give it to her...or my sister since one of the users suggested its good for teens. A musky YUCK on my skin. Totally. The touch sensitive spray cap that keeps on misting until you remove pressure, akin to aerosol bottles, is a winner though.

Initial Sray: Very strong alcoholic, probably due to propellant 50 seconds: Very pleasant balsamic scent 05 minutes: Very strong balsamic, still pleasant 12 minutes: Jasmine becomes more prominent 15 minutes: Faint Balsamic, Jasmine strong 17 minutes: Strong Jasmine, Balsamic is changing into soapy 21 minutes: Very soapy, floral 30 minutes: Loud soapy resinous sweet Conclusion: Too sweet for my nose

This seems very similar to NR for Her but my issue is with the application. It applies like a hair spray. It even smells like an Jaír spray while you are spraying it and it chokes you. But once it dies down it’s verh lovely but I just hate hate the way it sprays and suffocates you. I even transferred it to a portable spray bottle for better application and it still choked me lol It is a lovely perfume but I really wish they change the hair spray application aspect

Perhaps the blue bottle confused me but I couldn't put my finger on what it reminded me of. Then I went up to my collection and tested it side by side to Narciso Rodriguez for Her EDP. The NR is softer, and fades more quickly on my skin. This one sticks around and is a bit 'louder'; and has a bit more of a woody smell on me, perhaps like SJP Lovely (I can't wear the SJP as there is a note in it that turns with my skin chemistry).

Simply it's a beautiful Chypre floral fragrance.. specially for the summer weather.. easy to wear and highly recommend as a unisex fragrance.. thanks u Mr Chris Jackson 🌻..
