Pretty woman walking down the street

... wanting nothing else than to be pretty. The scent is light, girly, not too sweet, and remains clean-cut powdery as it dries down into a calm vanilla base. There is nothing dramatic about this scent, there is nothing wrong with it either.

It seems to me one level better than the sugary girly scents on today's market.

Would not rush to buy it, but don't mind wearing it. Clean, soapy, feminine freshness is never a burden.

That's it. A good and subtle feminine scent.

too spicy...

I smell only the base notes which combines to be sweet spice. Was wanting to smell the bergomat but don't. Way too sweet and spicy for me. It's a perfume I have to wash off asap.

The Slipping Scent!

I chose the title because the scent always seems to slip past something for me and as a whole, it's hard to grasp. With the first spray, I thought: "Eureka, how beautiful it is!" My mouth watered. Dark, deep citrus fruits. Is a chypre revealing itself here? Not at all, because not everything that glitters is chypre.
Then it slips into an oily-sweet floral note. And something else, something sugary-smoky. A full-bodied woman, lush, who has dusted herself with powdered sugar and willingly stepped onto the grill to let the sugar caramelize on her skin, while the embers and smoke from the grill were doused with rose water. It slips past gourmand and I didn't like it very much for about an hour.
However, it turned out to be a real powerhouse for cool days, and then I liked it again.
With patchouli, I generally have a good relationship, and when it was gently smoking away-without smelling like a burnt Catholic church-I was once again intrigued. If it weren't for the monstrous vanilla pods!
A rather interesting scent! But I must constantly change my feelings about it. No, I'm really not in the mood for that at the moment. Or am I? If I were gifted it, it could smoke away candied in winter. Or maybe not....

Sweet Fruits

Unfortunately, it doesn't smell like I imagined based on the notes. Where is the bergamot - I don't know. :-)
It smells cloyingly sweet (lily and vanilla are detectable) with an (unpleasant) sharp note; let me check if the cats... uh, wait a moment.
Patchouli and incense, which I like so much, don't come through at all; it remains sweet-vanilla and, in my opinion, very boring. It leans towards Jailia, only that one (in my opinion, of course) smells much better!
I can imagine that skin chemistry plays a big role here.

sometimes yes, sometimes no

that means:
after spraying it, it smelled okay. the heart note is really not my thing, it reminds me of toilet cleaner.
now after 6 hours it smells pleasant again, by now it smells like vanilla. uh, patchouli? incense? no, where?
:)
