I was really excited to try this, but it didn’t work for me. The most curious thing is that on my skin, it wasn’t powdery at all—it turned into an intense floral scent, like a powerful violet cologne, which faded over time into a body mist I didn’t like. A fruity note (I think peach) went rancid after a few hours. I tested it in various climates and it was always the same. Longevity is 4-6 hours with average-to-low projection.

At first glance, it smells like a freshly washed baby with powder and a clean diaper, which makes sense given the violet and musk combo usually gives that vibe. After a few hours, a sweet, tender floral note emerges without ever losing that powdery touch. Do I like it? Yes, we’re getting to know each other, since I’ve never tried anything like this before. I love it more than Flower by Kenzo (which I don’t like) and Tainted Love (which makes me keep smelling my wrist). If you don’t like powdery scents, stay away; but if you’re as curious as I am, you’ll be surprised to discover that this powder smells like a baby in your arms, amplified to the max. A very feminine scent with good sillage and longevity. High price, but I think it’s worth it for having that smell on your clothes and wrist.
