Danielle Brooks must love cloves!
I added this to my sample list because I've been watching "The Home Edit" on Netflix and I noticed this on Danielle Brooks perfume shelf. I loved her in "Orange is the New Black" and I just think she's so gorgeous, talented and humble. She also seems to have great taste, so I thought "what could go wrong?"
Well I'm sure this fragrance must smell amazing on Miss Taystee herself, but it's not my cup of tea. Honestly, I am shocked to see so many notes listed on this fragrance because all I smell is a BIG blast of cloves. It is a very linear aroma from beginning to end. Cloves, cloves, and more cloves!
It's not a bad smell per se. In fact clove is one of my favorite spice smells, especially around the holidays. I like to stick cloves into an orange to make a homemade potpourri around the holidays. Maybe this perfume could benefit from a hint of orange. Or maybe you could layer it with something orangey? Either way, it smells like an ingredient for Christmas potpourri. It also smells medicinal or like an all natural cleaning product like "Thieves" oil from Young Living. Not a bad smell, just not interesting to me.
