This (not) perfume is COMPLEX.

It has had me on quite a rollercoaster.
I got this as a sample two years ago from Sephora, and I smelled it once, it smelled like the woods, so I threw it in a drawer and forgot about it until this week. I sprayed it a week ago, and smelled NOTHING-zero-zip-nada. So I didn't even commit to putting it on my body. Again, a couple days ago I tried to give it another chance, so I sprayed it on a piece of paper-and smelled a VERY faint musky-woody scent.

Fast forward to today. I FINALLY put in on my body and DAMN. Immediately I smelled citrus, and freshness. I can see how it reminds people of D&G Light Blue. But, to be honest, I immediately started smelling a men's green/citrus cologne, kind of along the lines of Aqua di Gio or L'eau de L'Artisan.
It is a very faint scent to me, but has INSANE longevity. I put it on around 12pm, and at 9:15pm I STILL smelled it. Even after cooking, washing dishes, and washing my hands. Also, I walked in to a room where my husband was, and he IMMEDIATELY smelled it.
Sadly, it's way too masculine on me. I get zero sweetness and zero vanilla-just pure citrus and musk.
I will say, I layered this on my hand with Bright Crystal (such a boring scent), and WOW it deepened it beautifully. I think this will be my layering perfume used very sparingly. I don't think I will be buying the full size.
It is a fun party trick though. I gave it to my mother, father, husband and brother to try one night and it smelled so different on all of them. On my mother it smelled so citrusy and clean. My father it smelled like paint thinner. On my husband, it smelled like tobacco and musk and on my brother, it smelled like vanilla and baked goods.

Such a beautiful perfume! I fell in love with it the moment I smelled it. The black sleek bottle is absolutely beautiful, but does not reflect what is inside! Inside is a beautifully creamy white floral perfume that is so comforting and romantic. She is a touch soapy and it feels like you're in a luxuriously milky bath. You definitely get hit with the gorgeous jasmine (in the same realm of Alien) but it is so well balanced with that creamy coconut and orange blossom. I've gotten so many compliments and it just lasts forever on your clothes. It is a warm, creamy scent that's appropriate at the office AND on a date. The coconut is not a green summery tropical coconut, but a very milky and sweet coconut making it last forever. Personally, I don't think this is a sexy date night/on the prowl perfume or a club perfume. She's the girl that's been in a longterm relationship with a man (or woman) that just adores her, with a very feminine fashion sense and a hella successful career. Think flowy dress and heels instead of a sharp power suit. I just love this perfume.
