I wanted to try something new and decided on a blind purchase. I was able to snag the bottle at a good price, and I actually love blind buys - even if they sometimes result in misses. Unfortunately, this was one such miss.
The scent... how should I put it? Burnt, smoky wood, with an extremely sweet and overpowering cotton candy / marshmallow note. I think this fragrance aims to replicate exactly that - a campfire - so it’s really well done, and compliments to that. But I just feel that this combination doesn’t fit together here, or rather, I don’t want to smell like a Christmas market. Above all, the whole thing also smells very artificially constructed.
Longevity is there! Sillage as well. But it doesn’t matter if the scent isn’t good.
Ultimately, it’s a matter of taste - and for me, this is absolutely not it.
If you’re looking for a sweet winter fragrance, I think you’d be better off elsewhere. If it should be something inexpensive (in the same price range), then for example the Liquid Brun from French Avenue. A thousand times better.
