This probably depends on where a person grew up and the olfactory experiences. I'm from Eastern Europe, and to me this smells strongly of hospital, iodine and bandages. If you don't know what iodine is or what is smells like, you are unlikely to associate this with hospitals and bandages. The smell itself is not unpleasant, but it's very weird to be smelling like a hospital. If I heard this perfume on somebody, I would think they are sick and visited a hospital recently.
I know that this iodine smells comes from the saffron and oud notes (not my favorite notes for that reason). I could not rate the smell, because I do understand that this depends on the olfactory experience of the wearer, and also on the particular way oud and saffron are imitated in the fragrance (I highly doubt these are natural, they are way too expensive, especially oud. Natural saffron to me also has a touch of iodine, and I dislike the spice for that reason. No idea what oud smells like).
There is a strong and pleasant lavender in this, together with the musk elevates the whole composition.
NOT a safe blind buy. Anything with oud and/or saffron is not a safe blind buy.
