I love it, but only in very cold winter days/nights. And you cannot overspray it, max 2 sprays are enough. My story with this fragrance began in high school. My mom had it and I used to decant some into a tiny spray bottle.
I give it 5 stars, but would strongly recommend that a person sample this one before splurging. I can understand why a lot of people would hate it. The opening is just too sweet to the point that genifique it’s kinda icky feeling, but I just love the dry down, the patchouli smell doesn’t stink on my skin if I spray it liberally. When I smelt LVEB I thought “hm I’ve definitely smelled this before”.
I’m selling it to one of my friends. I wouldn’t recommend but I can see why some people like it. The bottle is pretty but sadly I just can’t stand that perfume. After spraying it once I went into a car with my mom and she asked if it’s the new perfume I bought and that she doesn’t like it and opened the window.

It needs a very, very light hand, and I found that by only spraying a tiny amount on my stomach, it was moreish. My experience with this perfume is definitely great. I only really spray this twice as the opening can radiate up Estee Lauder NIGHT REPAIR to 3 rooms away which can be embarrassing at times because I feel like I’m invading their noses. Honestly think that this is how long every perfume should last. 30 minutes later and it’s syrupy sweet and I get some patchouli.
It also adds a turbo charge to the scents projection and longevity. Likewise the iris note ensures a creamy dry down which I happen to love. But I think both the genifique patchouli and iris notes result in this being suited to the 25+ age bracket. To my nose the opening smells sweet and peppery, it dries down incredibly sweet.
You cant get it this cheap in the UK. Only took a few days for delivery, and I was very lucky it wasn’t broken as DHL thought the box was a baseball and threw it about 20ft over the gate . Standard shipping typically takes about 4-7 business days to arrive. Expedited services are available at checkout.
