A closer look at Marquise Letellier Sparkle EDP
Sparkle EDP is made by Marquise Letellier. Its strength is Eau de Parfum.
Longevity on skin
It fades fairly fast, after about 1 to 3 hours on skin, so you may want to spray it again later. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Givenchy Amarige and Clandestine Angel Heart last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like amber and benzoin are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Who will like it
The strongest accord is sweet (100%), followed by fruity and white floral. You will probably like it if you enjoy sweet and fruity smells and notes like black locust and amber. Less obvious notes include mirabelle, geranium and cacao. Perfume fans rate it 3.91 out of 5.
How far Sparkle spreads
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough.
For work or for evenings
It works better in the day than at night, so it is a good pick for work, school and daily wear. For evenings, Clandestine Angel Heart has more depth.
Sparkle price and value
The usual price in Europe is about €15. That makes it one of the more affordable picks. It costs less than Givenchy Amarige and Clandestine Angel Heart.
