Super refreshing, and the salty note is a great contrast to the fresh and slightly citrusy notes. Much like sitting on the beach with a short-lived summer fling, it's incredibly ephemeral, and it makes me wonder if we had something good going. Performance was terrible on me, it barely lasted for 30 minutes and it barely projected.

It's marketed as a bold scent for an independent woman, and the fragrance itself definitely embodies a pantsuit type energy. Although I don't envision myself as a alpha female girl capitalist, if there is ever a time where I become one of those Chinese influencers that pay $75 to join a WeChat group for "wealthy socialites," maybe I might put this on while posing with a rented Lamborghini to really sell the possibility that I could be on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.

My mother got me as a random present (and basically a blind buy) and I liked it at first, but I wasn't in love with it until a couple sprays later. It's a warm, intimate fragrance with unexpected an aphrodisiac quality. It's a very amber-forward fragrance that reminded me of ginger when I first smelled it. It's biggest weakness is its performance; I had a date that adored this on me but she could only smell it when she was sitting on my lap. Highly recommend if you're looking for a lowkey fall scent (and if you want to seduce a bottom).

It reminds me of my old pediatrician's office. Not just clean, but sanitized, with a distinct inky note in the air. The inky and metallic notes stand out, and when you walk in a wooded area the smells of the forest blend in with the artificial notes...it's a wonderful smell. It's almost otherworldly, and will definitely make you stand out.

I had an embarrassing moment at the gym once. I just finished my back-off sets of squats, and I went to use the bathroom, only to find out that I was on my period. I was walking around in the rain the whole day and I needed to walk back in my sweats, wet from the rain, the sweat, and my period blood. When I got this sample in the mail, I immediately got the blood notes and I went back to this page looking at the reviews for this fragrance. A user said that this smelled like blood soaked yoga pants. I gave my wrist a sniff and went to compare it to my soiled sweats.

They smelled exactly the same.
