My grandmother wore this. It has an innocence and purity but not in a fake way. It's innocence is still sensual. I wear it on occassion and it is very green. There is a fairytale vibe to this fragrance. Nonetheless it's not pretentious but respectable with that hyacinth. It is perfect for spring but i wear in winter. I live in NYC..staten Island and most women wear Victoria's secret or heavier scents. There's something pure about anais anais

ANAIS ANAIS was my sister’s signature scent when we were teenagers. I remember the whole of upstairs smelling of this fragrance every morning before heading off to high school. Good memories. 🥰

This was my first perfume ever, a gift from my mom. I wore it all through my early teens, and all the memories of rainy fairs, afternoons listening to The Beatles, and going wild in the hills are attached to this scent... so definitely impish 😄 Finally got a new bottle and I love it, timeless and beautiful. Just subscribed to you :) Thanks for the review.

@@andresgaray1246They are cut from the same cloth and quite similar, however, the original is stronger, spicier, and has a definite bite.🧚🏼 It makes more of a statement, has greater projection and lasts longer. The reformulated is lighter and just a bit sweeter. I prefer the original. If you're in the mood for that sassy, mischievous, intoxicating, forest fairy vibe, you will own it with one spray.🥰
