An oriental dream: sweet, earthy, woody vanilla
I have a feeling that when people ask over and over again for recommendations for a sweet, earthy, woody, vanillic oriental, PCAYY is exactly what many of them have in mind. They've just never encountered it because there is no tester on the perfume counter in Macys, it's a little pricey, and samples are hard to come by.
I lucked into it because one of my early swap partners has taste very similar to mine and she was an expert at predicting which ones I would love. She sent me a half-full mini as an extra, and bless her heart for doing that, otherwise I'd never have discovered this rich and satisfying elixir.
It checks all the boxes for me: woody, earthy, vanillic, sweet, long-lasting, excellent sillage. Each and every time I wear it, a couple of my co-workers take a deep sniff of the air around me and say something like, "mmmmm . . .you smell good."
It's one of a handful of perfumes I could wear everyday if I had to, and one I would truly miss if it disappeared.
Epilogue, Feb. 22, 2014: How on earth has it taken me three years to notice the rose note in this one??? A subtle, smooth, but very much there ROSE!!! Woo Hoo!
