Laila (1995)
by Geir Ness

Find this one so different from the other reviewers...strong, strong, strong watermelon opening that last forever and is headache inducing. The drydown is nice but on me it takes hours...not worth the wait. Best part of this one is the lingering smell on clothes the next day. Lasts forever which is wonderful if you like Laila. I do not.

This is a pretty summer scent. I actually discovered this at Epcot (in Norway, of course) and fell in love with it. I don't wear it now, but will pull it out as soon as it warms up.

I definitely like this white floral fragrance. My wife fell in love with it when she smelled it and she has a sensitivity to overpowering fragrances. The drydown is great and would recommend this one for anyone looking for a good white floral fragrance.

Very clean and pleasant. Smells like someone just stepped out of a refreshing bath plus a fruity element. Not suitable for a man, IMHO.

Oh good lord. If they're going for a clean fruity floral, my impression is that the fruit and flowers are plastic.

There's something promising in the opening and middle where it does smell like icy flowers in a naturalistic way, but as soon as that phase passes -- and it passes quickly, okay -- it just becomes a big, generic 'white floral' with an added does of 'freshness' that makes it annoyingly chemical. I guess you'll smell socially-acceptable, but I don't know if you'd smell good.

You have smelled something like this before (it reminds me of True Star, for one), and odds are you've smelled something better.
