When I first received this perfume I was underwhelmed with the tacky looking bottle but the more I saw it sitting on the vanity the more I appreciated the creative aspect of it. I had the same experience with the fragrance, it didn’t win me over at all on the first spritz but over time it grew on me.
It’s not your typical perfume bottle instead it looks like a futuristic golden bauble that doesn’t sit upright (which initially annoyed me). Despite looking beautiful on the vanity it’s quite bulky and not travel friendly. There isn’t a lid so the nozzle thought inset is exposed which from my experience with these types of design doesn’t impact on the fragrance.
When I spritz the perfume I get a rush of warm floral notes and a hint of zest and I generally zest is my thing but this blend didn’t sit well on my skin. Within the first few hours I felt like I was wearing a perfume that was well past it’s expiry date from the 80s; I was not a fan.
The more I wore it however, the more I enjoyed it – not sure if it was because I grew up haha or the season but it dries down to a warm powdery floral – not talcum powder floral (lets get that out of the way!).
I would have repurchased this perfume however the last power is mediocre at best and with a price point like that I know I can get a more affordable perfume where it’s love at first spritz and lasts me from 9-5.
This scent is absolutely amazing. It's strong, but not overwhelming. It's a gorgeous sweet, honey like floral scent with very subtle woody notes. It is an incredibly seductive scent and you feel super sexy wearing it. I came across this by accident and it has become a perfume I will continue to purchase until something more amazing comes along. My man loves it on me as well, it drives him crazy ;)
Tips: This is definitely a scent for a woman and not a young girl/teenager. Don't be heavy handed with it, as it is very long lasting (I can still smell it on my clothes when I go to wash them the next day, as if I've just spritz it on).
