Flash Jimmy Choo 2013

Flash aptly named...my initial impression was bubblegum, fancy diamond-studded synthetic strawberry. This was followed by anise-like candy (must be the pink pepper) and a bright delicate sweetness of candy- very flirtacious. Next I went straight into a heliotrope spiral. I miss some of the jasmine and woody notes, but still it was tempting. I am not sure I could wear this...the S.A. said she liked it at first and then it gave her a migraine, so I had to make a split decision not to test on the skin since it was only 7 am and I was in the duty free shopping looking forward to a 4 hour flight in a recirculated air capsule- couldn't risk it turning cloying or uncomfortable in the pod. To me, this is an improvement to the original Jimmy Choo Fragrance which smells like a sickly alien outer-space candy to my nose....this is more wearable by comparison, but not for the faint of heart either. Try before you by these are an acquired style and taste.
