I can’t help but feel this fragrance is for the most flamboyant, brash, peacock feathered, show off imaginable...but I absolutely love it! There’s something dark and brooding, even a bit dangerous about it despite the seemingly playful, sweetness, it somehow evokes crushed purple velvet. I can’t help myself, and reading the concept behind it, (I did not realise the psychoactive component!) I like it even more and the addictive, narcotic nature, this perfume clearly possesses. I loved the opening clearly very floral and sweetly resinous but genuinely unlike anything v I’ve tried before. The heliotrope becomes more eveident as it settles lending a gourmand vanilla/almond backdrop to the whole composition, it’s very creamy and with the exotic, heady florals from jammy rose and ylang ...and with the resounding Myrrh and sandalwood adding to proceedings, this stuff sings. Now it’s pretty feminine and I do say that with a clear unbiased, ‘wear what you want’ attitude...but I’d only feel comfortable wearing this in certain situations. Sad as it sounds, watching the boxing in a packed boozer full of proper blokes and I’d feel self conscious as if I might as well just have walked in with my full Rupaul get up on! For real. Only tried two from this brand, the other one was nice but performed poorly but they made up for it with this...I think I want a bottle.
