“Here is a list of the actual notes:Top Notes : Passionfruit, Peach,Pear, Aqueous, AmberMiddle Notes: Lily-of-the-valley, Jasmine, Ylang- YlangBase Notes : Musk, Sandalwood, CaramelI love and adore everything about this fragrance.That being said, this is a photo realistic Lily-of-the-valley perfume on me. Like a garden of lilies on a humid day.I have a mature nose. I'm 45 and have loved and collected fragrances for decades.Lily can be quite prominent on its own.It happens to be one of my favorite notes. I love natural green nuances in strong florals. Like lily.However, I can see how some might feel this smells like an air freshener, candle, or "old fashioned".For those reasons, this is not blind buy safe.The fragrance is dense with notes that can also be prominent on their own:Passion fruit, Aqueous (salt to my nose), Jasmine, Ylang Ylang, Musk, and Caramel.I get all of that here. The passiinfruit is slightly tart, the Ylang is tropical. The jasmine is heady. The musk almost sits above your skin like a slightly powdered veil. The Caramel is a bit sticky.Each note is realistic. And it's extrrait concentration.Ultra feminine. 35 and above. Generally speaking.If things like 'heady white florals' in addition to 'balmy and musky' excite you, this could be a true gem.It was for me!”
“This doesn't smell like the notes listed. Might need to macerate before it's at its full potential. The packaging with the roses is cute. Definitely a blatant Parfum de Marly rip off though.Overpaid and it's half the price elsewhere. Can't return, so do your research before purchasing.”
“This was a blind buy. So happy I made this purchase.! My skin chemistry turns, perfumes, kind of musky and powdery. The vanilla and the violet really comes out on me. Went grocery shopping and got stepped several times to ask what I was wearing. I highly suggest this wonderful perfume.!Top Notes: Violet, Bergamot & PearMiddle Notes: Rose, Lavender and AgarwoodBase Notes: Oud and Vanilla”
