It is sensual and exotic, very much in the Chanel style. It smells like a cousin of Coco Noir: it transports you to an oriental market where amber, nuts, and vetiver blend perfectly with iris and rose (I don’t detect jasmine). It works all year round if you don’t overapply, as it can be quite strong. Lasts about six hours, with a trail that goes from intense to moderate. Will I repurchase? Absolutely!

What a find. I committed the madness of buying it blind and have no regrets. It opens with citrus, woods, and patchouli, then dries down to become powdery and sweet. The trail and longevity are top-notch. Suitable for events, work, or a very posh day out. I enjoy it in summer for that fresh opening. Once dried, it’s almost the EDP version, but this one is more versatile because it evolves, whereas the other is denser and more linear. It is elegant, sexy, and playful, yet without that banal strawberry syrup scent.

I definitely struggle with dominant patchouli notes. It smells good and isn’t excessively wild, but eventually, it takes on tones that don’t suit me. The heart note is patchouli; pink pepper is noticeable at first but then fades. With a lot of boldness, I’d say it has something in common with Allure EDT, particularly a floral aspect, although they don’t list honeysuckle here. Performance and intensity are good.
