In love with this house, so they might be getting special treatment. Seriously I’m in love from a - z. Fragrance in my opinion compared to Perfumes Notes Stunning opening. Bergamont is lightly played against oolong. Not so long for Ooohlong (seriously that’s a thing). The rice powder softens all the edges of the other notes. Pimento is prominent. Great jasmine comes forth. Original opening I have never smelt a smell like this before this is what I am after when shelling out the benjamin for all that juice. Oolong vs. the powders vs. the licorice it works it is a great modern fragrance. Take that back this is a superb modern fragrance. Mean earthy tea on top, a over sensitive powder in the middle, and a straight up sassy licorice at the bottom. They seriously all work really well together this is a brilliant use of notes and composition. Not much sandalwood but I can see it was used as a softener to the licorice adding a sensual accord that I really like. BTW I hate black licorice. Heart gets a little sweet and floral touch. Oh my it’s from the licorice a little trickery is happening, but i can pick up the licorice is a slight that really brings out its sweetest side. The perfumer had fun here, I am having fun wearing it. THIS IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT. BOOOOOOOM!!!
