I was a teenager when this came out, I loved it and I still do, maybe because on me it doesn't come out as sweet, but more powdery, a powdery caramel, warm and cozy, not cloying, not excessively sweet. At least, this is how I perceive it.
I recall that it received a lot of backlash for being 'too sweet' back then, but then the gourmands took over the market, and... it doesn't feel
too sweet now, right?
I don't wear it that much nowadays, I think I purchased it at least three times since it came out and it was the only fragrance I could bear when I stopped using fragrances whatsoever (I hated everything and I used to have massive headaches at the smell of every fragrance), so I guess that first love is unforgettable. And time didn't change my mind towards it, it will forever have a place in my heart and on my shelf, even if I don't wear it.

Yes this is a pretty consistent laundry scent, it has the exact same smell the laundry shop has - or the laundry spray they use on clothes.
It doesn't have an evolution imo, it stays the same. It's clean, it's soapy, "white", crisp, pure but cold and 'distant'. Almost impersonal, detached.
I sprayed both on skin and on clothes and it has a decent longevity, especially on clothes.
Targeted to soapy clean scents lovers, but to me it has no personality. It's just clean, no complexity. And maybe it's okay.

I didn't know what to expect after reading the note pyramid, because it reads as definitely unique, so I purchased a sample and well, all I can smell is a mix of fennel and sesame, I don't detect any other notes, not the marine ones or the coffee. And I don't wanna smell like fennel sesame salad. I tried spraying on clothes too, but it's pretty consistent, or maybe this is all my nose can detect.
Not blind buy purchas imo.
