Aspects of this perfume wow me, namely the general originality of Battito d’Ali and the openings top notes. To me it smells quite gourmand, sweet, creamy and virtually ‘cakey’ with an orange citrus note that is very pleasant indeed. It’s immediately after that (a matter of minutes) the heart becomes waxy and intensely powdered, almost soapy with an orange blossom, countered with the intensely sweet, boarderline cloying coconut/vanilla. Myrrh is listed here and without smelling the note directly as such, I can see how it might conspire in this fragrance to bond the accords together. It’s an interesting fragrance, I kinda wish I loved it because it would make life and reviewing it easier, but it’s a challenge and I like that. Another wear might be in order to make a solid decision on it.
This myrrh perfume is perfect for the summer with its refreshing orange flower notes. The inclusion of cola-like myrrh in the blend makes it truly unique, along with the florals in it. The scent is not bad at all, and the delightful sweet orange blossoms steal the spotlight. The projection is also quite strong, which is a bonus. However, personally, I find it a bit too soapy for my taste, almost to the point of being overwhelming. It's a shame because the addition of cocoa adds a creamy touch that I usually love in fragrances. On a personal level it also feels a bit too "old" as a scent, probably for that soapiness which I really don't enjoy. Nonetheless, it was an interesting experience to try it out, but I would never invest in a full bottle of this.
