Hello Printemps
by Yves Rocher
Hello Printemps is a light, green, vegetal fragrance featuring a zesty opening of rhubarb and cassis, underscored by citruses and a dusty, green-woody base. It unfolds into a soft, rosy palmarosa heart with cedar, evoking a nostalgic, vintage romance and a fresh, almost edible quality—like biting into a raw rhubarb stalk. The scent is undeniably tart, not sweet, with a delicate, translucent presence that lingers briefly on the skin. Its appeal lies in its mood-lifting quality and naturalistic rhubarb note, making it ideal for spring and summer wear. It operates best as an after-shower or daytime accent, serving as a refreshing, uplifting scent rather than a long-lasting one. The perfume is most appreciated by those who enjoy green, non-sweet, and slightly acidic fragrances with a restrained, nostalgic aura, and is particularly popular among enthusiasts of restrained, elegant personal scents.

- +Effortlessly wearable, especially in warm weather and for those who prefer minimalistic, non-overpowering scents
Cons
