It's very fresh in a dewy way, without that screechy stinging feeling of certain "marine" chemicals.

Like you so succinctly say this is very underrated, almost unknown, which adds a bit of je ne sais quoi to those of us who know it and appreciate it, LOL! ;-)<br />It's as you say a little cute floral in a sea of ozonics, so it was natural it would be bypassed. It does have an aqueous quality, but none of that screechy thing soPerfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-77552513802392572732010-03-09T10:53:19.397+00:002010-03-09T10:53:19.397+00:00Audit,

I fell in love with it back in late ninetieth, but haven't bought a bottle for some reason (probably because I thought it was sort of mauvais ton to have more than two perfumes at a time back then:-)))I was looking for it on ebay some time ago, and I'm thrilled to know it's Sheldrake's work.

It was a nice one, light and floral. I never saw it anywhere else after leaving the UK. Now I know where to get myself a bottle. And it is an amazing price!

I liked this child very much in the pic, the innocence as you say and also the curiosity in the inquisitive stare. <br /><br />Many people don't like florals for several reasons and sometimes I can see why.
