A scent
that wafts through the supermarket aisles
every now and then
extremely sweet
artificial wood, sandalwood, fig, coconut mix
on a soapy-woody base

Nowadays, I'm only on the lookout for "old" or tried-and-true fragrances ;-) - It's a shame because D&G actually has some lovely scents.

It might be great for you, but unfortunately, it doesn't suit my taste.

Fig coconut sounds pretty off-putting.

Fig-Coconut-Sandalwood ... I’m escaping from that really quickly!

You don't like it as little as I do, do you? 😉

I have to say, I don't find it sweet at all. Or maybe it just comes across differently to me.

The opening was quite sweet, but then it turned woody and unfortunately not in a particularly nice way for me.

I haven't found this line bad so far. But that sounds awful.

The base is okay, but honestly, it's not forgiving.

No, let's not… Now in autumn with even higher customer traffic, all the way until Christmas Day…😑

Yeah, I was thinking more about this artificial sugary wood fixative that's now everywhere you go... like when you're shopping.. 😉

I think there are nicer scents for autumn and winter. Still, many seem to like this coconut-sandalwood-fig combo.

Unfortunately, I really don't like it when sandalwood goes in this fig-coconut direction. Plus, it starts off way too sweet and sticky for my nose. The synthetic, bulky aspect lingers. Then in the base, it calms down a bit and a soapy note comes through. That actually smells quite elegant. Well, to each their own. I do find the simple bottles very nice. But unfortunately, exclusive lines haven't been that exclusive or special for a long time. Saved some money. Thanks to @Rocco234 for sharing and the opportunity to test it.
