I’ve been using Fragrantica for over 10 years, and this is my first review. As soon as this order from blessed Sephora arrived, I opened it with great excitement because I’d read the notes and several reviews. I can say that, although the listed notes aren’t the same, it’s 98% similar to I Don’t Need A Prince By My Side To Be A Princess. I sprayed both of them close together, and they merge after a short while. Also, while I was trying to work out what it reminded me of, for some reason my mind went to the now-discontinued Ángel Drems from VS. That’s my very inexperienced opinion🤗😊

Am I going mad, or why does it smell exactly like 87 (Rio Radiance) when it first comes out, and the drydown is nothing, just something slightly sweet at skin level?? What happened here!!😭 Edit: It already smells a bit better now. I feel like it’s a mixture of 87 and 76. Nothing special, honestly. I think it’s one of the weakest mists in the brand, but okay, I’d still give it a 6.5/10.

I’ve just received it — a total blind buy! A hit! It comes across as very alcoholic at first, but that disappears in no time and a very warm, pleasant scent appears. It’s slightly sweet, but soft and creamy. It doesn’t smell like anything I’ve tried before, and I absolutely love it! I expect the staying power will only be a few hours; you can’t ask much more of a mist.

I bought it blind because, coming from Sol de Janeiro and with those notes, I suspected it would be a guaranteed hit, and it was. A vanilla mist, but not gourmand, rather ambery and very warm. I don’t know why, but to me it smells a little like burnt sugar. I absolutely love it; I’m going to save it for autumn. It reminds me quite a lot of a perfume, but I can’t think which one at the moment…

I bought it blind because being Sol de Janeiro and with those notes, I sensed it would be a guaranteed success, and so it has been. A vanilla mist but not gourmand, quite ambery and very warm. I don’t know why to me it smells a bit like burnt sugar. I like it very much, I’m going to save it for autumn. It reminds me a lot of a perfume but I can’t remember which one at the moment…

It’s just arrived, total blind buy! A hit! It comes off very alcoholic, but that fades away in no time and a very warm and pleasant smell appears, it’s sweetish but soft and creamy. It doesn’t resemble anything I’ve tried before and I loved it! As for longevity, I suppose it will be a few hours, you can’t ask much more from a mist.

Am I crazy or why does it smell to me like the 87 (Rio Radiance) and the dry down to nothing, just something sweet close to the skin, what happened here!!😉 Edit: Now it smells somewhat better to me, I feel it’s a mix of the 87 and the 76, nothing special honestly, I think it’s one of the weakest mists from the brand but well, I’d give it a 6.5/10.

I’ve been on Fragrantica for over 10 years and this is my first review. When my Sephora order arrived, I opened it with great excitement after reading the notes and reviews. Although the notes aren’t identical, it has a 98% similarity to ‘I Don’t Need A Prince By My Side To Be A Princess’. I sprayed it near my skin and know they blend after a while. Also, when searching for a similar scent, my mind took me back to the discontinued VS Angel Dreams. This is my inexperienced opinion 🤗😊

I bought it blind because it’s by Sol de Janeiro with those notes, so I intuitively thought it would be a hit, and it was. It’s an avo-infused mist but not gourmand, quite ambered and very warm. I don’t know why, but to me it smells a bit like burnt sugar. I love it; I’m saving it for autumn. It reminds me of a perfume, but I can’t quite work out which one right now.

It has just arrived; a total blind buy and it was a success. At first, it smells very alcoholic, but it disappears in no time, revealing a very warm and pleasant scent, slightly sweet but soft and creamy. It doesn’t resemble anything I’ve tried before and I absolutely loved it. I suppose the longevity will be a few hours, but you can’t ask for more from a mist.

Am I going mad or does it smell exactly like the 87 (Rio Radiance) straight out of the bottle, and once it dries down to nothing but a faint sweetness clinging to the skin? What happened here? 😭 Edit: It smells better to me now; I feel it’s a mix of the 87 and the 76, nothing special really. I think it’s one of the weakest mists from the brand, but it would still warrant a 6

It has just arrived; a total blind buy and it was a hit. At first, it smells of alcohol, but it vanishes in no time, revealing a warm and pleasant scent, slightly sweet but soft and creamy. It doesn’t resemble anything I’ve tried before and I absolutely love it. The longevity will probably be short, but you can’t ask for more from a mist.
