Sangria+Saffron is a deliciously tart, fresh fruity scent with a faint, slightly milky, vanillic base. It makes me think of an assortment of fresh fruit on a lightly sweetened vanilla buttercream frosted cake. It is 90% fruit and 10% frosting though, so not a sweet gourmand by any means. The fruit is the star here! It definitely smells more like a fresh fruit cocktail than specific fruits. There is suede in this, but it's easy to miss if you aren't looking for it, though it comes out more on the dry down. The saffron gives it a little bit of spiciness, but again, it's rather gentle. I think this is one of my favorite fruity scents. It's tart, juicy, and not overly sweet or artificial. Very refreshing, fun, and a compliment magnet.
The projection is moderate to good and projects well for for 4-5 hours. It also has great lasting power - at least 10+ hours in the summer heat and I'm still getting whiffs.
This is a great pick for hot weather and on the more affordable side. It also smells great when mixed with sunscreen.
This is a great scent for going out with the girls or if you're going on a fun date or a trip. It's fine for work too if you want something a bit more fun and fruity (though it gives more casual Friday vibes). I've been wanting to try more fragrances from this brand since I was so impressed with this one. 9/10 for me.
