Try to get an older bottle instead. I recently tested Knowing at the perfume store and found it to be great, as always. I then ordered a bottle online, and what arrived was not the "Knowing" we know. The base is ruined, and the complex scent is diluted and stripped of its soul. Batch code year 2023 May.
I had a tester that was great. But the new bottle from 2023 that I bought was totally different. The base is stripped down and heavily diluted. The artificial oakmoss smells really bad in the end because the other base molecules are missing.
I just discovered this and I'm completely enchanted by this 80s beauty that makes me dream of spring and simply better times… Not a classic, strictly dry chypre for me, but rather on the "accessible," fresher, soapy clean side. Absolutely wonderful!
Exactly. It's not harsh, not a classic chypre, and not really green either. It's very lush, floral, warm. And very special. You can recognize it among thousands.
I find it so beautiful too and I'm still thinking about where to buy it best.
Great scent! A bit too much rose for me.
I should have this perfume lying around to test!
It's just brilliant.
