This is the 2nd Celine that has petitgrain in it and I'm giving it low marks. It just isn't a note for me. It's a green, citrus-floral. Those words just don't suit me. It honestly smells like cat pee to me.

I'm sure it's great on someone, but it's not a good one for me.

    Grapefruit and mango tend to be my ‘yucks’. I do love the bitter zing that comes with petitgrain, but sure if we were all the same the world would be a very boring place.

      Grapefruit is okay for me i small doses. Mango is 100% no. The zing is okay, that bitter on me is really bad though. It can't work with it.
