Bright and Cheery, Shiny and Abstract: another SSRI!
Moschino CHEAP AND CHIC HIPPY FIZZ reminds me immediately of Salvatore Ferragamo INCANTO BLISS upon application. There is a kind of citrusy quality, something of a fruity-floral demeanor, and a bright and shiny sheen to this creation which places it directly into the twenty-first-century category of SSRI fragrances. Both of these fragrances list lotus as a note, so that probably accounts for part of the similarity as well.
I think that the quality of HIPPY FIZZ is just a notch above that of the Salvatore Ferragamo INCANTO flanker series, which work for me much of the time when I'm dashing out the door and want a quick spritz of something inoffensive and kind of nice and good for public places. Every once in a while the synthetics clash with something going on. Is it the weather--the temperature or humidity--or is it the wearer? Not sure, but the point is that sometimes they work; sometimes they do not.
In the case of HIPPY FIZZ, I have not yet had a "bad trip", though it may simply be waiting to happen, as this, too, is obviously a synthetic composition which is bound to clash with something sometime somewhere. Today, however, it smells quite nice: bright and cheery and light and citrusy with an inviting woody drydown, which I--perhaps through the power of suggestion--thought might even involve a bit of patchouli. Anyway, it smells good: the moss and the cedar are producing a sort of pseudo light-patchouli effect. I like this perfume, for what it is. Nothing profound, but a good choice when only an SSRI frag will do!
The bottle is oddly adorable, too.
