Pros & Cons
- ✅ I recently reviewed this on my Youtube "Rotten Rebel" and wanted to share how I feel about this to all you wonderful people here on Fragrantica! This to me is a pretty cool blend with a bit of a green and fruity opening (rhubarb and pumpkin).. The opening has a nice dose of sweetness to it which a lot of people (me included) find attractive. The more it dries down the more it turns into this sort of sweet and woody blend with the residue of the green and fruity opening on top. To my nose it's a sweet, woody and green scent with a nice fruity side to it and it's so creamy in such a nice way! I really enjoy this, and I look forward to using it a lot more! Peace and love!
- ✅ I wanted a fall/Halloween cologne...this did it for me...it smell like an expensive sunscreen at first then dries down to a waxy pumpkin pretty quickly! I get a crisp fresh background from the rhubarb...
- ❌ The pumpkin here isn't super recognizable, nor is it particularly beautiful (lol). ELDO x Tilda Swinton's Like This is more captivating hands down. Pumpkin has such a singular scent and I'm reminded of it every year when we carve pumpkins for Halloween. I think it's greener than you'd imagine. Fabulous Me is candy-like and unappealing at the beginning. I seldom call scents nauseating, but it is. (I secretly suspect I'm not a rhubarb kind of gal). Luckily with a bit of time, it fades and you have a much more enjoyable vanilla-sandalwood experience in the drydown, similar to Dangerous Me from the same collection.
