Portrait of Kyoto

it’s definitely a feminine leaning scent but as a guy it still works I’d say, despite earl grey being one of the main notes I don’t think it’s the strongest, it leans more jasmine to me? And there’s definitely the freshness of the apple, especially in the starting notes. I’d say the opening scent smells about the same as when it settles. It lasts about a couple hours, but nothing super long, it’s got pretty good sillage though. Really great perfume if you want to smell slightly sweet and fresh :)

Wonderfully blended floral green tea with slighty bright fruity-ness. Not too sweet, not too musky. It’s definitely elegant in a way that an older lady is elegant but I’m unfortunately getting a lot of old lady smelling florals. (I’m sensitive to florals so take that with a grain of salt) The dry down reveals a dry, fruity sandalwood. Overall good but not mind blowing. Super cute bottle though! A better version of this (to me) would be Dear Polly by Vilhelm
