Ella is like a 1950s Bergdorf princess stepped into an underground beat poetry reading in the East Village. You get the old school chypre profile, and despite the association of such fragrances as being a “mature woman’s scent”, Ella feels like its about a youthful kind of freedom and self-expression. The floral notes feel honey-soaked, quite green, and also has the same dirty-soapy contrast featured in El that’s so addicting. This is a fragrance for those who are confident in their style and feel uninhabited by fads and trends.
