I Unfortunately Have to Cancel the Dance…
Phew, I find this quite awful. According to the pyramid, it actually sounds quite good, but what I actually smell I don't like at all. I had imagined the scent quite differently.

The fragrance starts with a very musty, damp-smelling Davana and a strongly synthetic sour Bergamot. It feels slightly overwhelming to me.

In the drydown, the scent becomes more bearable/softer but unfortunately not more pleasant. I mostly smell the Ylang Ylang with a hint of Tuberose, which smells very green. I search in vain for caramel‍️. The fragrance becomes increasingly greener and ends with the kind of Patchouli that I don't like. Earthy, green, and also slightly musty here. One of the few scents that I have to wash off after a while because I simply can't stand it.

In short, for my nose, it's a sour, slightly green musty story.

At first, the scent almost overwhelms me with its lush and extravagant flowers. Later, it becomes woodier and earthier, and from then on, it's better.

A light-footed Oriental dances with flowers in her hair + nibbles on caramel. Warm spices, patchouli, oud + woods complete the scent. Soft, creamy + sensual.

Lightly overheated, spicy-sweet red roses dance a nightly waltz in the (somewhat sticky) patchouli palace.

Starts off with a slightly sweet, candy-like scent. Then it matures, grounded and warm. Reminds me of the more elegant fragrances from the 80s.

Not new, but nice. Warm, cozy, calm, not too sweet. In the first test, I noticed Oud, but not after that.

Sweet, creamy, slightly boozy at the start. Then deeper, warmer, spicier. Caramel-like without being too gourmand. Perfect companion for a night out.

Many flowers, yes, but not overwhelming, as it includes green leaves. Along with that, pepper & cardamom with a balancing caramel sweetness. Quite okay.

Very perfumy, slightly sharp. But it's a big deal! Sweet-spicy, floral. Strong, elegant, confident & yet warm at the base. On the skin..
