Eden Sparkling Lychee | 39
Eden Sparkling Lychee | 39The latest release from Kayali is a new addition to the Eden range - previously when thinking of Kayali Eden there was a strong apple focus with lychee lingering in the background. Now lychee is front and central and this floral fruity fragrance is making a splash.
While it is undeniably fruity you do get the impression of sparkling wine. There's definitely a youthful touch with the top notes but the floral heart manages to give it a maturity that I think makes it perfect for women in their twenties. The woody base tied in with vanilla gives it a comforting touch that is sure to encourage cuddling.
Top notes: Lychee, blackcurrant, red apple, Italian lemon
Heart notes: Violet, rose, Jasmine sambac
