Illessa

A peach Haribo dropped in rum, it's fun, but I don't get much else out of it, and after five minutes I'm ready to scrub it off

Tangy rhubarb-and-custard sweets, drying down to a nice earthy rose/vetiver before the candied vibe can wear out its welcome. Lovely!

Similar sharp top, sweet mid & musky base to Bee. None of Bee's complexity mind, but a fraction of the price.

Lovely deep dark woods with a gentle smokiness and subtle sweet tea and iris lift... But my skin chemistry + myrrh = blaring soap on top :(

Side by side, lacks GC's beautiful powdery core, instead there's a sweet almost condensed milk vibe. Still lovely especially for the price
