Red Wine Pear in Vanilla Ice Cream

The statement wasn't enough for me; so here comes a flood of words. If you like sweet and don't shy away from a bit of synthetics, step closer.

I don't know what I had imagined under "rose water gelato," but probably more rose.

I recognize the raspberry and the coconut - because I know it. Without prior research and a bit of imagination, the (very strong, warm, smoky, alcoholic) vanilla note would have completely misled me. I would have almost guessed rum here.
In combination with coconut and the slightly synthetic raspberry, my brain immediately spat out "red wine pear."
Warm alcohol, spices, and fruit.

The dry down is powdery.

"Unfortunately," I didn't perceive any development from top to heart to base note. Everything hits you all at once. "Unfortunately" in quotation marks, as the scent is quite charming.
However, it also feels a bit clumsy: very sweet, very intense, very aggressive.

In travel size, I wouldn't be averse at all. But with the sillage, I would be nibbling on a whole bottle for the next 10 years. Or licking.

Yes, if it were up to me, all fragrances would also be available in 25ml...
