Lavender, rum + woods nicely + subtly combined. Indeed a "balm of tranquility" with a tendency towards boredom or dozing off.

So instead of lavender oil, there's the scent for falling asleep in the future.

It would be the more luxurious version then 😂

It's a pity, really, because it's a good brand.

I really can't see what's so great about it, no matter how hard I try.

I would definitely see it that way too. Especially coming from the brand.

I agree with you. I had high hopes for it, and then this happened. Not a balm of calm. More like a balm of boredom! What a missed opportunity.

Translated · Show original

ParfumAholic 2 years ago

I can only agree with you on that.

Yes, unfortunately, I didn't really expect that from them.

There are probably other alternatives.

I think so too, but it's a shame about the brand.
