This is my first attempt at actually analyzing a fragrance, so here goes. I think this one has what is called sillage; at least on me it does. I've always liked the way Ralph smells but have never tried it on myself, until this evening. It is somewhere in the mid 30s outside, and that being said, this will be a fun one to wear in the summer. It reminds me of flowy skirts and flowers tucked behind one ear. It is initially very strong on me. I can definitely smell the fruit in the top notes, which quickly dries into a boquet of heady, sweet flowers, dominated by magnolia and freesia, and I think I may have overapplied it. The freesia is dominant three hours into it. Now four hours later that's all I smell.
This is lovely! Bath and Body Works used to make two different fragrances, Freesia and Magnolia Blossom, both of which have been discontinued. This combines the best of those two and perfects it. Ralph to me is pretty, uncomplicated (a plus in one's first actual analysis), and sunny.
And I'm almost 30. Rules are made for breaking. : )
