Thought I wouldn't like it, but then I did
When sampled it on blotters, my immediate reaction was that I didn't like it. Too sexy, too musky, and heavier florals and musks often give me headaches. But on skin, it's quite nice!
It wears a lot more naturally on skin on me and is more like a heady, lightly sexy vanilla musk with the sandalwood present. It just barely registers as floral on me, if that's the red champaca. The citrus keeps it just bright enough and is a necessary addition.
I keep coming back to smell the wrist I've sampled this on. Unexpectedly good, and a testament to why fragrances need to be worn on skin to get the full effect.
