Upon the first spray it is a blast of fruitiness and then it shifts very quickly into a smoky, woody base. It claims to still be a creamy scent, but I get no such feeling from this at all. Besides that (short) initial bright burst of pear it definitely sits heavier and smokier than I thought it would. There is also a strange gasoline/fume type smell in the middle notes somewhere that my nose doesn't love. It is more of a skin scent, so if you are hoping for more sillage like me, you might be a bit disappointed (especially at this price point). Overall, I would just say if you were going in on this blind, expect a smokier woodiness than a cozy lactonic fragrance.
