Hanae Mori Eau De Toilette Spray for Women - 3.4 Fl Oz Perfume with Floral Fruity Notes | Perfect for Daily Wear, Date Nights & Special Occasions

A friend of mine gave me a bunch of samples of Hanae Mori Butterfly EDT about 8 years ago. I fell in love immediately with the soft sweet warm notes, but as a poor college student once my samples ran out I was SOL. Eventually with time I forgot about this fragrance until last Christmas when I happened across the rollerball at Macy's. I promptly purchased but couldn't find the full size in store once the purse size ran out. Enter Amazon. I took the chance and while I was nervous and had my doubts, after reassurance from other buyers I clicked purchase. I have no idea how the 3.4 oz can be $30 here and $116 in all the big stores but this is the real deal. I have a very sensitive nose that can tell minute difference in scent and this smells precisely like my rollerball. I purchased through Amazon and received it in perfect condition 2 days later. The scent is soft warm and sweet. Not overly complex with a blend of berry and praline that give the impression of a vanilla scent, as it's supposed to. But it's not as deep as vanilla. Even the EDT lasts ridiculously long on the skin. I can apply it on my pulse points at 9am and still smell it lightly at 6 pm. But the scent while lingering and projecting, isn't overwhelming and strong. It's perfectly acceptable for the young woman in the workplace or college.
