It is a simple concoction of ambrette seed (slightly musky), jasmine (our aroma of the week) and cedarwood. They come together to give a delightfully soft and delicate feminine scent, one that conjures up fluffy clouds, fluffy bunnies and layers of floaty tulle.
It's light and innocent - although perhaps for 'innocent' some might read 'slightly boring'.
Although not included in the scent itself, we have to thank the calla lily for the beauty of the bottle (and possibly the name of the perfume too). The elegant curves and magnificence of the lily are the inspiration behind the smooth, tactile and charmingly rounded bottle and you could believe that the scent itself offers a delicate layer of lily such is the softness of the floral.
It doesn't seem to have much throw, this one sits close to the skin to be enjoyed by only those who totally invade your body space. It does have surprising tenacity and two hours on I can still detect it (I originally thought this would be one of those annoying perfumes that disappear after less than an hour). No changes to the aroma though, what went on to my skin is still on my skin unchanged. No shocks or surprises.
It's safe and pure, perfect for the chaste perfume wearer who doesn't do leather or vetiver or oud.
