I want to write my review right now because I think in totally different way about this like many others and maybe this gives a different perspective for someone who is trying to understand what kind of the scent is this. I like this scent a lot and since I was a little bit disappointed with the Portraits line this was the one which pop out and I liked this, after two weeks I love this. My problem just was that I found this similar to something I already have. I was thinking and thinking and finally I found it: Initio’s Psychedelic Love. I know, there is REALLY different notes in those two and vanilla can’t explain the similarity which I smell in any kind of way. I don’t know how I can feel like this and if anyone feels the same? I just know that the opening and the dry down smells similar: PL is more intensive, deeper, more narcotic and long lasting while BY is all the time from the opening until the end more soft and weaker. The one thing why I write this review now: I was reading reviews after testing this now during two weeks and I don’t find anything similar to MFK Oud Satin Mood. OSM is powdery, oud vanilla rose and all those notes are in balance and you can really easily tell what is going there without reading the notes anywhere. In BY there is oud and there is vanilla but not even vanilla is so obvious. There is many notes beautifully blended in BY and I love both scents and if you own another one you definitely need to get your nose to another because those are TOTALLY different scents, beautiful different kind of scents. And if you like another one it’s not so obvious that you like both. For me the big question is: do I need “a weaker version” of Psychedelic Love? Those are definitely not the same but the smell in my left and right wrist appears pretty similar. I hope someone got the idea, my English is not so perfect though. Enjoy your perfumes. 🙂 Thank you for reading and I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG: @ninamariah_perfumes
