Mon Paris Ysl

Mostly juicy and ripe, like peach, berry or apple. Underneath that, sugary and rounded, closer to dessert than to fruit.

It opens on strawberry, raspberry and pear, moves through peony, jasmine sambac and chinese jasmine, and settles on indonesian patchouli leaf, patchouli and white musk.

• raspberry: tart red fruit, jammy with a slightly fuzzy edge
• pear: light watery sweetness with a green crispness

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
