Alibi Eau Sensuelle Oscar de la Renta 2023

This is so cosy, sweet, enticing and absolutely intoxicating. Something about it just completely captures me. I love to wear it to bed and sometimes with Mix:Bar Whipped Almond. I actually haven't worn it out and about that often yet as I've been on a testing frenzy. But when I come back to this I'm just...ahhhhhhhh. Its longevity is quite good but not amazing which is something I'm always after in a perfume, maybe a few hours? Will come back and adjust if necessary.. I’m curious about its projection to others as well but I’m just loving this for me right now, the notes all combine to be just stunning. I'm sure they are contributing but I'm not really getting the florals, I mainly get the amber (not resinous here), and the softest, gently airy sandalwood, musk.. and fluffy vanilla (albeit it’s not listed in the notes). I did note that it reminds me of SJP Stash but it only does right at the driest of the drydown of Stash as Stash is quite stark and heavy on me initially but the reminiscence of it is there. I prefer alibi eau sensuelle a million times over. So much so that I initially bought the 30 ml from Chemist Warehouse (in Australia), then two weeks later went back and got the 100ml. Very reasonably priced also.
Update 13 Mar 24 - Have been wearing in the office and can smell it lightly around me for about five and half hours. Layered today with Lattafa Khamrah and Nasheet.. I'm not sure if others can smell it unless they get very close, but I'm very happy in my heavenly soft little scent bubble :)
