Reveriie

A beautiful, elegant scent my iris-loving mother passed on to me. Gorgeous composition with prominent iris, powdery, and smokey notes with amber in the drydown- very mature and appropriate for more serious occasions. It's one of those scents I adore on her, as an older woman, but can't see myself wearing due to how mature is smells. There is no sweetness from the orange blossom on my skin, and I simply can't think of an occasion that would suit it. Athalia is undeniably smooth and luxurious, and definitely smells expensive, but it simply isn't for me- yet.

A slightly creamy and dense yet surprisingly fresh mix of chamomile, sandalwood and orchid. A simple safe perfume that would be an appropriate everyday feminine office scent, while also being suitable for any casual occasions.
Pleasant while it lasts, but unfortunately it becomes a skin scent within half an hour and fades away completely within 2-3 hours. Inoffensive but not the most memorable.

Not aromatic in the slightest to my nose- it's creamy, powdery and barely sweet, like oatmeal ever so slightly sweetened with fructose and milk. This isn't childlike- this is fully infantile, and I don't mean that in a negative way at all. Baby porridge and powder, a musky nursery scent which evokes feelings of warmth and safety. Unfortunately the creamy barley notes do make it slightly nauseating when overapplied or sprayed in warm weather.

Almost impossible to describe. A musky cashmere warmth that envelops you like a gentle hug from your mother. Elegant, refined, yet also comforting and tender. This isn't a collection of notes- this is a feeling.

Fleeting memories of the past- your mum's soft cashmere sweater, soap in a luxurious hotel, the hand cream you received for your birthday. This is a representation of all the joyful moments you have experienced, condensed into one gorgeous scent.

A pure baby wipe/lotion scent that dries down to a creamy sandalwood (thankfully I'm a massive fan of babyish smells). Very sweet and fruity in warm weather, which makes the stone fruits and frangipani shine, giving it an almost tropical feel. Wearing it in colder weather allows for the red currant to break through- it's juicy, tart, and just sour enough to give the creamy sweetness an edge. Very pleasant and smooth, an elevated fruity floral with some depth.
