No, I am not disappointed. But it’s not exactly the ultimate perfume either. Still, Enchanting should not be missing in any feminine household.*gg*
Besides, I feel like I’m now married to it, because there was a golden ring with little stones on the bottle. It even fits me. On the outside, there’s a pretty engraving with the name of the fragrance, and on the inside, an engraving of Celine Dion. The script has a bit of that ONE Ring vibe. (Lord of the Rings)
In any case, it’s a beautiful ring.
Do I now have to wear only this one fragrance?
No, I won’t do that. Who wants to have the same man all the time, how boring....
Hmm... let’s mentally scratch that and replace the man with food. So who wants to eat the same thing every day...?
But let’s finally get to the scent.
Enchanting is floral, very sweet, soapy.
The first spray made me say “Ohhh, soap...”
The second, “hmmmm, cream...”
The third, “Aha, cream soap...”
Now I have to think about how I like it.
It definitely smells very feminine and cozy. A bit like showering with cream oil and moisturizing with a lovely body lotion. Especially like warm, clean, creamed skin. Yes, it’s cozy because of that.
A tiny delicate nuance is spicy, which slightly diminishes the soapy aspect, and I really like that. I don’t like too much soap.
In the name of fragrance science, I just sniffed Nivea cream and compared it with Enchanting. (What I put myself through...).
There are similarities. Nivea is a bit lemony and fresher, while Enchanting is even sweeter than that. It lacks the fresh note. But otherwise, it’s almost spot on.
It’s a fragrance for all occasions, always wearable.
I don't have many star fragrances either, but the descriptions here caught my attention. The scent aura is really lovely too. There's nothing to complain about this fragrance. At least not for those who enjoy creamy, sweet scents.
