A growing appreciation
The first time I tried this fragrance on my skin, I was not impressed. It smelled a bit cheap, and synthetic. I was, however, in a perfume store at the time. After leaving, a few hours later, I noticed a very appealing scent that followed me. I sniffed the usual spots where I had applied my samples, and found that THIS fragrance was the one I was smelling. I went back to the store and bought a bottle. I got it home, and my first day wearing it, it smelled a bit different without all of the competing scents. I liked it, but I did not love it. I put it kind of in the back of my collection. I used it very rarely because it never jumped out at me as something the would be OUTSTANDING for the occasion. Then, this fall (2022) after 2 years of having the bottle, I tried it again. I had been classifying it as more of a summer scent before, and had only worn it in warm weather. When I put it on in the cool of fall, and went about my day, the fragrance opened up ENTIRELY DIFFERENT. I was drawn to the scent.
The florals smelled less flat, and instead I can smell the complex bouquet of the various floral notes. The apricot and cedar wood offer this spicy sweetness to the backbone of the scent, and the amber melts the florals and this spicy sweetness together with just a hint of oud in the background to add a slightly wild untamedness to the overall character of the scent.
I am falling in LOVE with this scent this fall. It evolves slightly throughout the day as I wear it, but the projection is enough that I can constantly get full (but not overwhelming) wafts of the scent as I move throughout my day.
The scent is reassuring, and beautiful. I feel composed, confident, intriguing, complex, and a bit mysterious as I move around and leave the trail of this fragrance behind me. The more I wear this scent in the cooler weather, with my autumn attire and colors, the more I fall in love.
I TRULY recommend this scent, but do yourself a favor and keep it for fall, early winter, and ealry cooler spring days... these are the times when it TRULY shines.
