Magnifique eau de cologne fraîche et pétillante qui me ramène en enfance. Certainement quelque chose que mon père portait. Avec cette ouverture acidulée mais qui s’arrondie quelques instants plus tard avec ces notes florales. Parfait pour les beaux jours. Vous pouvez foncer les yeux fermés, vous ne serez pas déçus.
