Pros & Cons
- ✅ Best vanilla‑heavy perfume I own because it stands out in the crowd of overly plain gourmand vanilla.
- ✅ Very airy complex but almost linear scent; stays close to skin and lets you catch whiffs the whole day long.
- ✅ Unique unisex vanilla that avoids sweet gourmand territory and offers good longevity.
- ❌ It smells like a very sharp slightly scorched grass, or hay – not the most pleasant thing I've encountered.
- ❌ Watery lotus note can smell synthetic to some noses, making the opening off‑putting.
- ❌ Minimal projection makes it feel almost invisible, which some wearers find disappointing.
