Cocaine

“Despite the provocative name, there's nothing at all weird or unusual about this one to my nose. Very monoi and tuberose forward, summery floral. Feminine leaning, similarities to Orchid Soleil are there for sure. Projection and longevity are great. This is a great option for a feminine summery floral, just know that the name has nothing whatsoever to do with what you'll be smelling, either literally or conceptually.”

“When winter was over, my late grandma used to shove mothballs into her carpets, roll them, and store them in the attic for next winter.Then when the season finally arrived, she unwrapped them, and washed them with a carpet cleaner that smelled like white flowers. Cocaine smells just like this whole scene.”

“This is one of the most unique fragrances I've ever tested. It starts off very sweet, like a combination of tonka bean, cardamom and some other spices. That opening lasts for about 10-ish minutes before turning into this slightly sweet medical glove smell. Both phases are pretty and addictive, but the drydown more so. It's something you don't expect to like, let alone want to sniff all the time, but you do both.”
