Halle Halle Berry 2009

The first thing I thought when I saw the fragrance and its packaging back then was "oh, definitely a summer scent, fruity, sweet with coconut," but what I smelled when I sprayed it on was something completely different... Halle does not smell fruity on my skin at all but starts warm, sweet, and floral. All the notes are finely tuned to each other, then it becomes slightly spicy, a little woody, and in my opinion also vanilla-like, which wonderfully rounds it all off.
I think of a romantic evening by the fireplace, the fire crackling, I'm wearing my favorite cozy sweater, and the bottle of wine is waiting to be enjoyed. I wear Halle because it is cozy, warm, sweet, feminine, and not intrusive or disturbing.
The longevity is top-notch at just over 7 hours.
