Very loud in the opening, but soon becomes quiet skin scent

First, a short disclaimer: I really, really love gourmand scents, have nothing against "sweet" fragrances and enjoy in a good peach scent.

That being said, I'm not so thrilled about this one. Sample of Birth of Venus comes to me as a very sweet fragrance, in the opening part. It's really fruity and sweet and you can definitely smell the ripe peach and citrusy notes.

After awhile more "soapy" part emerges, I guess it's lavender with jasmine and other florals. After a really loud and luscious start, it very quickly becomes subtle skin scent, at least on my skin.

I never experienced such a loss in forte with perfume before. It's like olfactory BOOM and half an hour later - so quiet and barely noticeable.

Don't know if anybody else had the same experience?

Bottle is really beautiful, notes sound really lovely and rich, but it simply does not work with my skin chemistry, I guess. For such a price tag, I would expect something more durable in longevity.

"Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire....

at your desire."
Unfortunately, I can not say that now ... This birth of Venus does not correspond to my desire so at all and is the divine namesake in no way just. Perhaps I should not have put the bar too high after this song and the eponymous razor. The latter is after all the price-performance ratio always just - the fragrance, however, in my opinion not.
He starts very sweet, individual notes are hard to make out, most likely still the raspberry. The target group that I could imagine here would be teenage girls, because the fragrance seems very girly and makes rather the impression of a rather arbitrary designer fragrance. It has little to do with the goddess of love. It is perhaps rather a childish gesture, a mischievous look in the eyes, a quiet giggle among girls, when an attractive boy runs past.
Just as fleeting as this moment seems to be the durability of the fragrance. He quickly retreats and becomes skin deep after a few hours...
And at this moment, it becomes almost unbearable for me personally. It reminds me of a relevant room fragrance. With this spray I have years ago covered the smell that remained when my dog had made once in the apartment and all cleaning was not enough to get rid of the fecal smell.
Now not everyone will have such a repulsive association to this smell, but just the similarity to this air freshener is enough, in my opinion, to deny the fragrance the comparison to the birth of Venus.
