I like perfumes with peach notes. Especially when I read the description "creamy peach," I thought, ooo, that sounds good, and the scent is also different from many others in the pyramid. And the bottle! It's great.
Since I know that I ALWAYS have to test perfumes on myself, I swapped for a sample. Last night after work, it was time:
Gossip Night starts off briefly fruity and is indescribable on me. I can smell a bit of lychee and something floral. At first, the scent seems a bit unharmonious to me. Then it becomes powdery, but new; this is not the usual.
After 3 minutes, it quiets down, the fruity notes fade away... and: vanilla powder appears. My husband says, oh, something smells strange. Okay. Not for me yet. This is still intriguing.
And then I start a downward spiral: I briefly get peach scent impressions. And then it turns into a somehow strange smoky peach. Not a beautiful, soft, velvety peach with cream, as I had partially read here.
Who has been smoking here? I wait and wait...
When I wake up at night - about 5 hours later - I smell that strange smoky, maybe a bit earthy scent again, which has now also overshadowed the last bit of peach, and it has to go (it wasn't easy). I don't smell any trace of cashmeran or musk here either.
I don't know what happened, but my skin and
Gossip Night definitely do not harmonize. So please TEST FIRST. Like others before me, it is either really great or terrible.
