Pros & Cons
- ✅ Absolutely gorgeous. It starts out peppery and then mellows into the most amazing powdery scent.
- ✅ Feathery light, yet warm and sweet... Opens with pepper, iris and neroli and dries down with wisps of incense, tea and cashmeran.
- ✅ It makes its presence known without being overpowering. It’s a powdery vanilla scent.
- ✅ The longevity of the scent is impressive, staying with you throughout the day.
- ✅ The perfume works beautifully in the chill of fall and the freshness of spring.
- ✅ It is a versatile and sophisticated fragrance, suited for women who appreciate subtlety and richness in their scents.
- ❌ The sore spot here is how unrealistic the full bottle price is in relation to how WEAK and short-lived this is.
- ❌ Too much pepper in the opening. Then it finally dries down into a soft musky ambrette... Couldn’t smell the iris or tea anywhere.
- ❌ Overwhelmingly powdery/sweet. Like one of those old school talc powder puff blasts.
- ❌ Its sillage is not overpowering, allowing the perfume to remain a personal, intimate experience.
- ❌ It might be slightly heavy for the heat of summer.
- ❌ The price point might not be budget-friendly for some.
