I visited an aunt who sells from catalogue and had this perfume that hadn’t been worn for years, yet I remembered it well from my childhood. My mother used a scented cream; I recall it as more intense and annoying, and I hated that smell as a child. However, trying it today was a different experience. The opening is a potent, slightly animalic jasmine, followed by pure sweet, synthetic musk in a very heavy, creamy vintage style with spices. Undoubtedly, it’s a perfume from another era, but I only truly enjoyed and appreciated its notes now that I’m over 30.
I’m not sure when this fragrance was released, but I remember that in the 90s an aunt always wore a super sweet and potent perfume. I mentioned this to my mother, and she said she used a lot of this (Pastel) back then. I didn’t like it because it saturated my nose, and for some reason, I associated it with breast milk, thinking it smelled like that 😂😂. Anyway, I’d like to smell it again because I know it would instantly transport me back to my beautiful childhood ☺️
It seemed very strong years ago and yes, it is quite strong, but nothing compared to Scandal by Night. It’s sweet, a vintage scent, but personally, when I wear it, I don’t perceive it as so overpowering. It has good longevity on the skin (I always apply cream beforehand). I wear it when I want to smell like those perfumes from the past.

It’s a very strong perfume. I think it should be worn occasionally to avoid causing discomfort. It’s not for the office; I feel it would make me dizzy if I wore it daily.
