Cryptic, At Best
Neotantric MANIC LOVE WOMAN (as my decant is labeled) opens with a citrusy greenish woody quality reminiscent, in various ways, of D'Orsay ETIQUETTE BLEUE and Bond no. 9 HIGH LINE and Banana Republic W. It then becomes more floral but still seems very unisex to me, and much too well-behaved and optimistic to be the perfume of a manic love woman! I was expecting something oozing with sensuality, but instead have found a squeaky clean floral perfect for office wear. This perfume smells incredibly respectable!
The bottle is adorned with the image of naked woman lying in a fetal position with a skull. Hmmm... rather cryptic, I must say. Perhaps she is repenting for having murdered her lover, and now she substitutes showers and baths for romance? Like I said: cryptic.
I like MANIC LOVE WOMAN, but probably not more than other fresh floral perfumes much more readily available. (I actually have no idea where one can buy this outside of Sweden!) It does smell very natural, so that's always a big plus. Maybe I'll buy a bottle the next time I'm in Stockholm. (-;
