Now, when I first used it I wasn't used to the scent and almost wanted to give it away. Good thing I gave it another shot! It gives me this sophisticated scent that you can smell with luxury perfumes. It lasts the whole day so no need to re-apply. The price is a bit hefty so I'll be ready to purchase it again once its on sale again.
5 months agoI got this on sale while I had (and am still having) this obsession in looking for coconut fragrances, which are oddly enough, not common here in the country. It was advertising local, organic, vanilla beachy vibes--no coconut, but still, I was intrigued. I've to admit that I was a bit disappointed when I got it. The advertised notes are definitely there. It's sweet, but not overly so, balances between woodsy and floral and is just slightly musky. It smells just a tad more feminine than and I feel leans a little "mature"? The staying power is fairly impressive, since I know organic fragrances don't tend to linger, and I can still smell it on my clothes after a good few hours. I don't hate it, but it just wasn't what I was looking for. I'm not sure how sea-inspired it is, and I'd say is definitely not as light and summery as they say. The kicker is that I just think that there are surely many other existing fragrances that smell a lot like it. I don't know, it's nice, but just doesn't feel special to me, that's all.
6 months agoI was first hesitant on getting this because it has a rather hefty price tag on it for a small bottle, but gave in due to the very lovely description of the scent. And oh my, I'm so glad I did!! I'm a vanilla scent kind of girl and have been using the same vanilla cologne for 10 whole years! I can say that this is a step up to me because there's still a hint of vanilla to it, but with a very fresh twist. It just smells divine! Not to mention that it feels really light. Even if you just spray once, the scent really spreads! Very good buy! <3
12 months agoThis is a sexy, sweet scent that has long staying power. The first spray is quite overpowering with the strong vanilla notes. My mom and I hated the smell at first because we prefer cleaner scents. However, the strength of the vanilla notes eventually softens to a musky, almost woody scent that I love. I prefer to wear this during rainy or cold days than during the summer as it is being marketed for. Nevertheless, this is a scent that will make you feel like a woman as the smell lingers on my hair and wrists even after a long day. The bottle design could definitely be improved though because the writings seem easily rubbed off.
over 1 year agoI bought this because I wanted a summery scent to go with the season. The packaging looks chic and the scent is light - just right for summer. It comes off a bit too strong at first but once it dries down, it has a lovely vanilla-floral scent to it, but not overpowering. The only downside for me is, its longevity. It's an edp so I expected it to last for a good few hours but on me, but it doesn't even last for an hour even on my wrist. But I bought this on sale so I'm not complaining. Good buy but could be better!
over 1 year agoVery nice, not over powering scent. It smells sophisticated. It lasts quite long on me as well and my hubby always compliments me when I wear it. It smells more floral to me then I thought it would but overall i am very happy with the purchase! The only thing I would change would be the packaging. The shape of the bottle is pretty but the writing started rubbing off almost immediately and the silver top looks kind of cheap in person.
