Pros & Cons
- ✅ This is a great introductory perfume for people who are starting to venture into perfumes. It’s one that fits all seasons and occasions, be it outdoors or indoors, rain or shine, snow or drought. It’s clean, citrusy, and aromatic.
- ✅ BdC EDP is very well done for what it is - your run of the mill extremely versatile blue fragrance. It smells like a straight up amalgamation of every note above... It's super clean and laundry-like... 8.8/10
- ✅ For me, this is the fragrance I would recommend to someone classy, in their 30's, 40's, 50's, who works in an office, who wants to buy only ONE fragrance for everything. This is the do it all, any season, fresh smelling woods fragrance.
- ✅ I like the scent! The oud is easy to digest here. The sillage is moderate. Its not dark, nor is it gothic but sexy and alluring. 'Warm spicy' defines it well!
- ✅ Mmmmm, this is so lovely, georgous and girly. Not for mature women, but for young rock&roll girls. So soft powdery. I never tried a parfume that has such a perfect balance.
- ❌ I had this when i was 16 it was my signature scent but now i just feel like it is generic, a lot of people want a safe blind buy and end up buying it and sticking with it.
- ❌ I have very mixed feelings. It's absolutely not blind buy safe and not a beginner friendly fragrance. I don't like the incense here and weak projection.
- ❌ Too expensive, too generic, too ghosty, too much nothing, also smells like shit.
- ❌ Terrible stuff...smells like a men deodorant or shower gel. No oud, no vanilla, no patchouli... only some chemical rose scent mixed with some really cheap spices.
- ❌ This was a mess to me and I l love saffron, oud, and patchouli. NEGATIVE - it did not make any sense to me.
