Biology is Destiny

My interest was certainly piqued by the notes listed on the manufacturer's card for The Body Shop DREAMS UNLIMITED:

citrus, green chili
delicate white flowers, fresh aquatic notes
soft cedarwood

Unfortunately, to my nose, the "fresh aquatic notes" completely dominate the composition, making this yet another one of those seasickness-inducing frags which I find very difficult to wear. It may be that back in the twentieth century I overdosed on Calvin Klein's ESCAPE. All I know for sure is that big fat aquatic frags, of which DREAMS UNLIMITED is certainly one, hold little appeal for me today.

If you're looking specifically for an aquatic perfume, do give this one a try, since the green chili note does seem like an innovation--and it is detectable. I love Anne Flipo, and was very excited to see that she was one of the perfumers who created DREAMS UNLIMITED, but even love cannot overcome physiology: I have to decline. Désolée.
