Want more!
The bottle is what first attracted me to this perfume. It has a dynamic shape and a novel cap. The only thing missing, in my opinion, was a little charm dangling off it. I chose one with red heart-shaped rhinestones and it compliments the bottle beautifully.
I bought my bottle as soon as I realized that the perfume had been discontinued and that I might never get to smell the true aroma if I waited any longer. I've heard that some bottles have already "turned" and nothing remains but a "celery" smell. Thankfully, I was lucky enough to get a bottle with the scent intact.
The first whiff of it struck me as tangy, much like the scent of an excited woman. However, that impression was very short-lived, dissipating within the first five minutes.
As the other notes reveal themselves, it strikes me as very warm and inviting, like a campfire. There's a slight sweetness to it, like a cinnamon roll, definitely not overly sweet like a birthday cake.
Unless they re-launch this, I'm not planning on buying another bottle. I want to remember it as it was meant to be.

Yummy top notes
After a stressful experience, I was with a friend when I bought this and needed something to brighten my week. I tested it in the store and the top notes instantly sung to me. "First Moment" is truly an appropriate name for this perfume. An hour or two after I walked out of the store with it, I sniffed the wrist where I had sprayed it and couldn't detect a trace.
After further experimentation with it, I found that the base notes do build up and become detectable if you re-apply it numerous times. I'll probably drain the bottle quickly on the days when I do wear it.
I say it's a great fragrance for days at home when you need a little spark of brightness every so often to bring you out of a slump. I don't want to use it when I'm out and about because I don't think I would find enough opportunities to re-apply it.
