LYS

I just love this scent. Very feminine. Has a initial green note with the light floral underneath. My husband dislikes florals but really likes this one. It's not very well known and not worn by anyone I know...perfect signature scent. It's not overpowering, very suble and on the exotic side. Nice for day and evening use. I wish it came in a purse size since it doesn't have tremendous staying power...still worth buying and very reasonable.

This perfume is utterly charming and the scent I reach for on spring days when I'll be outside. I don't generally like green scents since they're too sharp on me but this one is more spring floral than green. The lily is the note you can't miss and the one that lasts longest. Sillage is medium but lasting power is relatively low. Perfect for spring days and linen dresses.

Lys is a white lily displayed on an intricately carved fragrant wood table. As the previous image would indicate, it is very elegant, which is what I would expect from Marina de Bourbon (I'm a big fan...), and very feminine in a fresh, spring-like way - definitely both a day and evening scent. However, if you expect sillage and lasting power from the lily and wood loveliness, you may be dissappointed. Lys lasts about 2-3 hours on well moisturized skin and wears so close (even heavily applied!) that it can almost be called a skin scent. Lovely stuff, fragrance wise, an 8/10, but in execution (very poor sillage and lasting power) a 4/10.

I absolutely adore this fragrance....it makes me feel so fresh and clean, the lily scent is just lovely! But unfortunately the staying power and sillage SUCK BIG TIME! It barely lasts for an hour on me...what a shame. So i ended up using it for the gym, spraying generously like a body mist. Marina really needs to step up with her bottles of colored scented water....even Britney Spears with her cheap cloying stuff which I cordially detest, beats many on the market on sillage and longevity.

It was my 1st Perfume in my life... I very like this fragrance, lovely, fresh and clean smelling... but so disappointed that the longevity is so poor, just last around 1hr. :(
