This gives me an old wooden outhouse (probably the oud) with a flower airfreshner, mainly rose.
It's really well blended. But I don't enjoy the scent. I expected so much more from this.
It is described as highly sensual and dark.
Dark? Yes, in an old wooden outhouse in a forest dark. Sensual, naah i don't know. It turns kind of chocolaty, eventualy....but that is like 2-3 hours in. So no, I can't stand the opening.
But who knows, mayby it will grow on me.

This scent is really beautiful!
Sweet florals backed by the strenght of the ambergris.
The amergris might come off a bit screechy, but the floral sweetness balances it well.

Got it as a 2 ml sampel, instantly fell in love and bought a 50 ml bottle.
I really didn't expect to love it as much as I do since I often like dark, mysterious and sexy scents.
But this is clean, soft, bright and beautiful.

I am not that impressed by this to be honest, and not really by the other two 10 ml bottles I bought(onyx and raw cherry), but they were better than this one.
I found Forbidden to have a nice orange/citruses and chocolate opening. But soon after it just turns sickly sweet and kind of plain and boring on me.
It lacks that sensual depth.

Am I alone in these feelings?
Is this perfumer overhyped? I at last kind of think so...
