Olene by Diptyque

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Olene.
Sadly, the fragrance is about as annoying as the song. It's sweet. It's irritating and should just have been called Honeysuckle. True to form I've looked up the meaning of Olene. Various interpretations, the best of which is that it comes from Helene and means ray of sun.
Spring is a great time for blossom and light florals. Jardin Clos, which I reviewed yesterday, is much lighter and altogether more enjoyable. Miller Harris Noix de Tubereuse is also a lovely floral mix with an almost almond base.
