First impressions: I'm struggling with how to describe this one. It's bubbly like soda, but only slightly. It's tart and fruity, yet herbal. It's light and bright, but with a resinous rich base. Light against the dark indeed. This is utterly addictive and I am deeply inhaling my wrists constantly. If I have to identify it, I get lemon, bergamot, apple, soda, lavender, and I think I can detect a deep dark soft patchouli. This is a scent to wake you up, but it still has an element of comfort. Beth is absolutely killing these monthly paintings.
