I arrived with great expectations, but it didn’t quite work for me. The most curious thing is that on my skin it didn’t smell powdery, but rather an intense floral scent, like a potent violet cologne, which over time faded into a body mist I didn’t enjoy. A fruity note (I think peach) turned rancid after a few hours. I tested it in various climates and it was always the same. Longevity is 4-6 hours with average to low projection.
At first glance, it smells like a freshly bathed baby with talcum powder and a clean nappy, which is typical for violet with musk. After a few hours, a tender sweetness emerges with little flowers, never losing that powdery touch. Do I like it? Yes, we’re getting to know each other, as I’d never tried anything like this before. I love it more than Flower by Kenzo (which doesn’t suit me) and Tainted Love (which makes me smell my wrist constantly). If you don’t enjoy powdery scents, stay away; but if you’re as curious as I am, you’ll be surprised to discover that this talcum smells like a baby in your arms, amplified 1000%. A very feminine aroma with good trail and longevity. High price, but I think it’s worth it for having that scent on your clothes and wrist.
