I’ve been using Fragrantica for over 10 years. And this is my first review. As soon as this order from blessed Sephora arrived, I opened it with so much excitement because I had read the notes and several reviews. I can say that, even though the listed notes aren’t the same, it’s 98% similar to I Don’t Need A Prince By My Side To Be A Princess. I sprayed them both close together, and they merge after a little while. Also, while I was trying to figure out what it reminded me of, for some reason my head went to the now-discontinued Ángel Drems from VS. That’s my very inexperienced opinion🤗😊

Am I crazy, or why does it smell exactly like 87 (Rio Radiance) when it first comes out, and the drydown is nothing, just something a little sweet at skin level?? What happened here!!😭 Edit: It already smells a bit better to me. I feel like it’s a mix of 87 and 76. Nothing special, honestly. I think it’s one of the weakest mists from the brand, but okay, I’d still give it a 6.5/10.

I just got it — a total blind buy! A hit! It’s very alcoholic at first, but that goes away in no time and a very warm, pleasant scent appears. It’s a little sweet, but soft and creamy. It doesn’t smell like anything I’ve tried before, and I loved it! I guess the longevity will be a few hours; you can’t expect much more from a mist.

I bought it blind because, coming from Sol de Janeiro and with those notes, I felt it would be a guaranteed hit, and it was. A vanilla-scented mist, but not gourmand, fairly ambery and very warm. I don’t know why, but to me it smells a little like burnt sugar. I like it a lot; I’m going to save it for fall. It reminds me a lot of a perfume, but right now I can’t think of which one…

I bought it blind because being Sol de Janeiro and with those notes, I sensed it would be a guaranteed success, and so it has been. A vanilla mist but not gourmand, quite ambery and very warm. I don’t know why to me it smells a bit like burnt sugar. I like it very much, I’m going to save it for fall. It reminds me a lot of a perfume but right now I can’t recall which one…

It just arrived, total blind buy! A hit! It comes off very alcoholic, but that fades away in no time and a very warm and pleasant smell appears, it’s sweetish but soft and creamy. It doesn’t resemble anything I’ve tried before and I loved it! As for longevity, I suppose it will be a few hours, you can’t ask much more from a mist.

Been on Fragrantica for over 10 years and this is my first review. When my Sephora order arrived, I was so excited to open it after reading the notes and reviews. Although the notes aren’t the same, it’s 98% similar to I Don’t Need A Prince By My Side To Be A Princess. I sprayed it close and know they blend after a while. Also, when trying to recall a similar scent, my brain sent me to the discontinued VS Angel Dreams. That’s my unexpert opinion 🤗😊

Just arrived, a total blind buy and it was a hit. At first, it smells like alcohol, but it vanishes instantly, revealing a warm and pleasant scent, slightly sweet but soft and creamy. It doesn’t remind me of anything I’ve tried before and I absolutely love it. The longevity might be short, but you can’t ask for more from a mist

Bought it blind because it’s Sol de Janeiro with those notes, so I figured it would be a hit and it was. It’s a vanilla mist, not gourmand, quite ambered and very warm. It smells a bit like burnt sugar to me. I love it, saving it for fall. It reminds me of a perfume but I can’t place which one right now

Am I crazy or does it smell exactly like the 87 (Rio Radiance) right out of the bottle, and once it dries down to nothing but a slight sweet skin scent? What happened here?? 😭 Edit: It smells better now, feels like a mix of the 87 and the 76, nothing special. I think it’s one of the weakest mists from the brand, but I’d still give it a 6.5/10
