If you are used to very synthetic scents and it's not the problem for you, you may like this one. I don't think it's just one note which ruins the whole composition but it's the way how all the notes has been made. I just don't get anything natural here and heavy Ambroxan doesn't help at all. You don't find here edible and intoxicating marshmallow. I love that note when it's done well. Saffron is there and this is definitely not like "Baccarat Rouge 540" but I think it came to my mind especially during the first testing because of Saffron and how it's made here - I don't like that scent at all either. That feeling anyway disappears totally when testing again after one day. Vanilla Orchid, Vanilla and Jasmine together smell cloying to me. I can't say that this is creamy. The aroma is unpleasant, suffocating and headache inducing. There are so beautiful floral notes mentioned but none of them smell beautiful and not at all how they smell when natural ingredients are used. The longevity and sillage are very strong, too strong with this kind of scent but on the other hand it's like that because of synthetics. I feel somewhat quilty to write this kind of review but this is how I feel. I haven't tried so many from this house but I haven't found any which I like so if you like this house in overall, you may like this one. Some scent comes into my mind after around 1 hour from the opening. I'm smelling my wrist like crazy (even if I get a headache) because this is so familiar but I can't remember what it is.

I've been quite shocked testing this brand that a lot of the perfumes have jarring, loud and synthetic base-note overloads. The brand image seems to be restrained/refined class but the scents are screechy, scratchy and designer-esque, and it baffles me because Sonia Constant has done loads of decent stuff for designers that doesn't fit into the shouting, beasty ambrofixative category. Maybe this is the type of thing she likes wearing, so it's what she's concentrating on for her own brand, but it's really not for me. If you like this style, this is a good perfume.
