My boyfriend gifted this (and it's matching lotion), to me out of the blue. I hadn't ever smelled it and when he gave it to me I was a little concerned because -although he has amazing taste in cologne, I was unsure on his taste in perfume. With this choice though, he did amazingly well!
The bottle that this comes in is made of heavy, high quality glass. It is beautiful to look at and one I will be keeping once I have finished the fragrance. It looks elegant and sophisticated.
The scent itself is quite heavy, super sophisticated and has a hint of sexiness to it. It is quite potent so one spritz is all I need as I find that more than that can be a bit overwhelming. The upside is that you don't use as much so it lasts longer!
This is a floral scent but - at least on my skin,has a slight hint of feminine musk. It is definitely a mature scent and not one I would recommend for teenagers. This lasts all day on me - especially when using it in conjunction with the lotion.
Although this isn't a scent I probably would have chosen for myself, it is a beautiful perfume and I am in love with it. I highly recommend spraying this on yourself if you get the chance to see how the notes develop on your skin, as it smells a lot nicer the more it melts into your skin.
This is my ultimate purfume! Such a beautiful fragrance and I love the packaging. Only down side is the price but thats what you pay for an amazing scent from a well established brand.
