My initial reservation before trying gave its place to sheer delight: yes, the banana certainly declares its presence with plenty of confidence, but it has none of the aspects I dislike in other scents (no cloying, sickly sweet character, or unpleasant artificiality). On the contrary, the banana note here has all the nuances I love in the actual fruit's smell: the creaminess and sweetness of a – just ripe enough to eat – fruit, balanced with the slight bitterness of its peel.) Céline Ellena's concept of a “baroque banana" is successfully realized in a composition of charming balance between velvety and powdery texture, playfulness and sensuality, subtlety and richness. Thanks to the generosity of L'Artisan Parfumeur, we have a draw for a 100 ml bottle of L'Artisan Parfumeur Bana Banana by Céline Ellena for one registered reader in USA or Europe.
