Sofia is a name built for quiet elegance, and Milton Lloyd's Perfumers Choice Sofia Perfume, a fruity floral Eau De Parfum, lives up to it from the first spray, sparkling water, orange, fruits, and bergamot arriving effervescent rather than sweet. Red rose and vetiver take the entire middle stretch, romantic but grounded, never once tipping into anything overdone or excessive. Vanilla, patchouli, amber, and musk close the entire composition out with a warmth that lingers quite pleasantly through an entire evening.
Daytime elegance carries just as easily into relaxed after dark plans, which is rare for a fragrance in this particular category. It reads more refined and considered than its accessible price tag would ever really suggest well after dark.
