Got this in the early 2000s because I read in a magazine that it was a favorite of Julia Roberts (unisex fragrance). I loved it and wore it for years. Bought it again a couple years ago and it did not smell like I remembered. Smelled strongly of alcohol in the opening, a bit like bug spray and I went nose blind to it pretty quickly. So it’s been in the cupboard ever since. I need to try it again. Maybe just got a bad batch or counterfeit??
@FragranceNinja25 күн бұрын
@@iwillstom Definitely, I will say I go blind to it and am shocked when others still smell it later in the day on me. I also had to go EDP to minimize the alcohol opening feel.

I just got a sample and I like it. But with that being said, I wouldn’t buy a full bottle because I already have Instant Crush. I pick up that same sweet vibe so it seems a little redundant. But like IC, this is very addictive imo.

I have it on now, it hasn't dried down yet but so far, a few words to describe this perfume: Grand, hope, clash, church service, magic, minty, elderly black grandparents, nostalgia, flowers. I feel like it is a scent that would make me remember all the little details of an interaction with a person. Like an old special person I briefly interacted with years ago but it changed my life. That kind of thing.

A unique technique to be sure! 🤜🤛 Back of the traps, front of the traps and top of the forearms works best for me. Back of the head too in the summer. In the winter I'll add the outside of the shoulders and solar plexus. Never messed around with the wrists, neck or any pulse points for that matter. Lot of trial and error to find what works best for me. 🧡
