I was disappointed with this fragrance. Like a previous reviewer, I purchased a miniature of this fragrance based on the notes, which described oriental osmanthus. Boy, was I surprised when the scent was actually an overwhelming, sucker-punch to the nose that is reminiscent of senior citizen ladies' bathrooms. It is simply ylang ylang and osmanthus. I do not get any of the other notes mentioned above, not even after several hours of wear. There is nothing unique about this fragrance, other than it makes me feel like I should be sitting pool-side at a country club, ordering an ensure shake. It is a "classic" fragrance, indeed, not meant for ladies in their 20s through their 50s.
Based on the notes, I bought Desirade. It should have been everything I love in an oriental scent and the osmanthus should have made it a dream for me.
Instead, I'm afraid that Desirade is rather a generic affair all vanilla and Ylang Ylang and too much coriander. I was really truly diappointed with this one, thinking I had found an unknown gem. Desirade is not a well known scent and for good reason.
