I want to love it
I’m still unsure of this one. The bottle is phenomenal. Absolutely stunning! I love how much effort they put into designing this.
When I first sprayed this, it immediately reminded me of hairspray. After a minute or so it develops into a fresh apple, cinnamon and vanilla scent. As it drys down further I can still smell the top notes in the background, but I now get some warm, almost creamy cocoa and a hint of cedar. It then develops into a cinnamon, vanilla, cocoa. The dry down is gorgeous but the apple note remains throughout and I really struggle most with that note. This is a fresh, crisp apple fragrance. The cocoa and toffee are in the background. This is a fruity, sweet, gourmand fragrance with a slight creamy vibe. I get no lactonic notes what so ever. I feel this would be best suited to cool sunny days, autumn or winter. I think this would be overbearingly sickening in the heat of summer. This would make the perfect Halloween/pumpkin season fragrance.
I’d still rate it 8/10 because this is a high quality fragrance that I really want to love, but for my personal taste it’s a 4/10 as I guess I’ve discovered apple notes just aren’t for me. This perfume does layer really well with other gourmand toffee and caramel scents. I paired it with Tempt Me Not from Navitus to tone down the apple, which made it more bearable for me, but Im still undecided on this one. Sadly this will likely be another expensive mistake for the chopping block.
