Latest Reviews of 1932 Eau de Parfum

To some extent, at least in the opening, it has a similar feel to Bel Respiro edp, with a shampoo or body wash vibe. As this effect burns off, it smells more like the edt, but it's not quite the perfect Chanel accord from 1932 edt (and 31 Rue Cambon edt) of the bergamot and lightly-powdered florals. It gets close, though, to be fair.
Update: Smelling this on someone else, it's amazing. It smells like a classic white floral, beautiful and alluring. A full bottle is on the to-buy list.
