Enticing Flowers For Women

Enticing Flowers opens on a juicy, fruity rose: tart blackberry sparkling over a fresh, dewy rose, lively and uncomplicated. There is barely a development to track - the original was built as a minimalist three-note composition, and this Perfume Parlour version follows suit, keeping the bright blackberry-rose accord front and centre throughout. As it settles a soft, cottony musk wraps the rose in a clean, slightly powdery warmth. Held against the Givenchy it copies, the likeness is genuinely close given how simple the original is; the main differences are a rose that leans a fraction sweeter and more candied, a musk base that feels a little thinner and less cushiony, and a shorter stay on skin. It is a pretty, easy-to-wear fruity rose - feminine, fresh and inoffensive - ideal for spring and summer days and an easy office or casual pick that delivers the L'Eau en Rose charm at a budget price.
