This perfume starts rosy-sweet and retains its light, pleasant floral scent as it dries down and develops a gentle spiciness. Wears quite close to the body and doesn't overwhelm, and doesn't cause a headache like so many other perfumes do. Because this is a soft scent, you can apply a bit more and not worry about overpowering. It's a very pretty fragrance, and Courtney even supplied an extra roller for the bottle. (No issues with the original one, though.) She packaged it securely, and included a pretty gift bag with a nice note. Very happy with this purchase - thank you!
