Pros & Cons

✅ I love this! I tested a LOT of perfumes yesterday ... and this was one of my top picks.
✅ Fantastic, highly wearable, green and fresh wormwood/absinthe.
✅ So dynamic! I get a different note with each sniff. ... I would wear this year round.

❌ The scent itself is outstanding. ... With that said, the longevity on my skin is disappointing and bad enough that I likely wouldn't buy a full bottle unfortunately.
❌ 80s powerhouse in the opening ... it is too dense and sombre for my taste.
❌ unfortunately on the bottle the black currant is way stronger for whatever reason, which is a huge bummer to me because it always does the cat pee thing on me.
