I REALLY WANTED TO HATE IT... BUT...
I can't fault it. It's very pleasant and MASS-APPEALING. It's a solid new release from Creed. It features creamy vanillic tuberose with a woody patchouli base and spicy, fruity undertones. I think it will become one of their bestsellers.
My first thought was that it smells 'familiar'. It opens with a fruity tuberose blast, reminiscent of L'Interdit Rouge. The apricot-like osmanthus and passionfruit are quite noticeable. It quickly dries down to a floral patchouli heart. The patchouli note is similar to the patchouli in Chanel Coco Mademoiselle (but not as cold and standoffish).
The vanilla and ambroxan add warmth, but I didn't notice much incense or oud.
It's smooth and well blended; it feels silky and creamy. Cocoon-like...
VERY good projection and longevity. Unisex, some men could pull it off.
PRICE:
It’s not worth $500. The drydown reminds me of Sofia by Sofia Vergara, which is a Coco Mademoiselle copy with a passionfruit note. The ingredients and composition are better, of course. The DNA is not original. That's all.
