âI tried this out in store by spraying my wrist. I was really excited because I fell in love with the opening notes. It is sweet and fun and similar to the smell of sherbet. However, the dry down smells so heavily of patchouli that those first fun initial scents are completely lost. For me, the dry down was headache inducing and akin to cat urine. I really wanted to love this one but the dry down just kills this for me. However, the longevity is insane. Some of the perfume got onto my sleeve and it lasted for days.â
âBlind bought this on a flight as it was really good value and desperately wanted to try after seeing reviews. Opening is very fruity, sweet and almost tropical. When it starts to dry you can definitely smell cherry and frangipani. Wouldnt say projection is great and didnât last very long on my skin. Maybe thatâs due to the heat as I am on holiday. Hoping it lasts longer in colder weather. Definitely a fun summery scent though!â
âUgh I love this scent sooo much! I recently bought the body oil as well and the combo is perfect. This fragrance has gotten me the most compliments ever and only from those that come really close to me which I prefer. Originally I purchased the Arabic dupe and prefer the original itâs a bit sweeter and the butterfly bottleIs so unique. This again smells like nothing I have ever smelled before it definitely stands out in my collection.â
