This scent is so soothing... I smell a so natural vanilla, no gourmand, mixed with rice and fangipani, feels like a hug. It is a perfume, in my opinion, that smell doesn't offend the others around. You will never displease using it. Goes well both morning and night and in different climates, here in Brazil it evolves incredibly on hot days, but I think it could be so much better if used in the fall / winter. The staying power is around 6 hours, which is good, but I think it could be much better for a Kenzo. I do not think so much like hypnotic poison, but it resembles in some notes, they follow the same path of evolution, I think the hypnotic poison more refined. But perhaps it could be a substitute.

It opens with a very green note which I can't identify (assume it's the ivy leaf) this note lasts long on my skin. Then it changes to a sweet and powdery at the same time, the note of licorice is emerging amid the green leaves of ivy, I can smell a bit of star anise and vanilla (which my skin is not very pronounced). I cannot identify the development of other notes, the development stops here and this smell sweet / powdery lasts until disappear completely. Finally, don't think it's sweet as a BS Fantasy or L by Lolita as other people tend to compare, on my skin is not unbearably sweet and not cloying, it's a sweet contained and balanced. The staying power is around 7 or 8 hours, which is very good. I get many compliments when I use it. I think it is very good at lower temperatures, but can also be used in the spring without many problems. It just gets a little heavy if used in the summer, I mean above 28 ° C.

It opens with orange, but do not feel bitter, I feel a strong orange and sweet, very sweet. After 10 minutes the orange is weaker and gives way to delicious cinnamon scent, which lasts for about 2 to 3 hours, and thereafter became a smell of cookies, along with the vanilla. It is not a vanilla type "vanilla lace" Victoria's Secret, it's like a smell of vanilla cookies coming out from the oven. In my skin, felt no note of immortal, as some people feel. This perfume was totally different than I thought, reading the comments. For a blind buy, was a great surprise.
