It sits in an interesting middle ground on sweetness: fans love that it's fruity and soft without crossing into full gourmand territory, but those who find it too sweet or too mature for their taste do exist, and it polarizes slightly on that axis.
Considered something of an underrated or "slept on" entry in the Parfums de Marly lineup — enthusiasts point to it as strong value for the house's quality and packaging standards relative to its lower profile compared to Delina.
