About This Perfume
Diane Castel Eleganza smells like strawberry jam, bergamot and soft vanilla musk. It opens with bergamot and strawberry, moves into jasmine and orange blossom and settles on oakmoss, patchouli and vanilla. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This fragrance works across all four seasons and is easy to wear day or night. A good pick for casual days and date nights. Released in 2020.
In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and sweet for casual days.
- Sample first if: white floral is new territory for you.
