Pros & Cons
- ✅ It's dark outside, close to midnight. Barefoot, night gown on, long hair swiftly blowing with the breeze. You're gracefully swinging on a wooden tree swing. A bucket of water by your side, full of freshly cut flowers including vanilla and cinnamon sticks inside. While eating a delicious red candied apple. All of that comes into mind when I think about this perfume. That's what it smells like to me. All those things together making a velvety dark, freshly sweet beautiful creation. The longevity out of this world. I never wanted to try it during the day, I couldn't dare to ruin the magic it made me feel like it did at night. I had this perfume before. It was definitely my signature scent. Midnight in a secret garden. Pans Labyrinth meets Alice in Wonderland vibes. It wasn't just floral, it was also mysteriously sweet but not in a 'in your face' kinda way. Truly a work of art. I miss it. BISOUS
- ✅ So glad I got this discontinued gem in my collection. Byredo has some of the best use of the note of violet but this is definitely the best in the entire range in my opinion. Reminds me a bit of Iris Silver Mist but different enough to have both. Sweet, floral, powdery, intoxicating violet. Official notes are: Top: Carrot, Iris Heart: Egyptian Jasmine Absolute, Black Violet Base: Osmanthus, Vanilla infusion

- ❌ This one reminds me of a watered down version of those purple violet candies. Nice but not worth the price imo. If I am going to pay this much I want a masterpiece that blows all my clothes off.
