βI smell nothing from these notes. Obsessed and impressed with the juicy floral sweet yummy opening!!!...but then? It become so extremely synthetic, I was sure it has ambroxan or something that synthetic-plastic-floating note (???) similar to that the Rouge Ultime Givenchy has (but that one HAS ambroxan!) π Anyways, I'm not sure if anyone would crave that drydown. It's so polarizing for me! π Next to it, I tested the Devotion Intense and their drydowns compliment and complete each other lol ! If it was cheaper, I'd give it a try. It doesn't project and has no longevity, nor sillage.β
βIt's lovely and classy perfume (seductive and mature), the bottle itself is high quality and heavy, but i felt it's not as unique as the parada paradox intense, the dry down on my skin left me somehow with only vanilla notes somehow (it's almost identical to the sugar vanilla of bath and body works mist)..I tried a sample at the store and it wasn't worth the high price for a full bottle, although i got so many compliments when i walked out of the store ..β
βWas really excited for this release, I lovee pistachio notes in fragrances but I find it hard to like this. I love the original Prada Paradox but to me, this smells like the original fragrance with biscuit like notes. Tried hard to like this but ended up giving it away.β
