Indian Dream, from Mancera was released in 2014. The perfumer behind this creation is Pierre Montale. It has the top notes of Geranium, Heliotrope, and Orange Blossom, middle notes of Amber, Jasmine, and Rose, and base notes of Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Vetiver.
I have to say Mancera have not disappointed to date. To my nose this is a stunningly original rose, just in that it doesn't really smell of rose! It's a white floral affair which again...doesn't smell like your typical white floral because of the dose of sweetness in there. It has an almost synthetic, candy feel to me that rose turns into a Turkish delight and jelly sweets, jam with a breeze of jasmine and musk with a hint of the balsamic and soft amber like base. I think there's a hint of spice in there too or just a tinge from the other florals perhaps? There's a touch of creaminess that hint of vanilla from the amber accord and sandalwood but neither are pronounced. I thought it was pretty stunning to tell you the truth, exotic and interesting. Lasts okay and is blended to perfection. I mean it was hard to define in note terms but in a good way rather than an unfocused way.
