mixed Reviews
The fragrance is characterized by its spicy, floral notes, particularly carnations, with a nostalgic feel reminiscent of 70s perfumes. Many reviewers appreciate its evolving scent profile, noting a pleasant drydown that becomes sweeter and muskier over time. However, some find it can lean masculine or have an off-putting synthetic note on their skin.
