Disappointed
I received a sample of this with an order I placed for another fragrance. When I looked into it, I was so excited to find that Daniel Josier was the perfumer. Typically I enjoy his style and fragrances, and I feel like he is underated as a perfumer. Also, it has the somewhat rare note of Gooseberry in it (which is wrongly listed as blackcurrant here). Knowing this, I sprayed, ready to be happy and blown away. I'm not. Matter of fact, I'm not even sure I really like it. It's very feminine. Light. Fruity. Sweet. Floral. But it lacks a base. I am not able to detect *any* cedar or musk whatsoever. It feels like completely top notes to me. I wish it had a woody or even a leather base, something to balance it out a little, but there's nothing to tone it down. I'm left sadly unimpressed and disappointed.
