Blue Agava & Cacao (for women and men)

Sterling Maiden

I bought this immediately after sniffing it on my arm. I rarely buy a fragrance without letting it sit on me awhile, but this one was love at first smell. I already have the Black Vetyver Cafe by Jo Malone, and was told by the SA that these two were a good layering combination. I can't wait to try it out that way.

What do I like so much about Blue Agava & Cacao? First, I like scents that are a little unusual, but smell good (as opposed to unusual, but who in their right mind would wear them scents). The initial spray is green and sparkling, the lime blossom being first out the gate, followed closely by the cardamom. I love cardamom in my fragrances, and have several with this ingredient. The cardamom doesn't take over, because as soon as the lime fades away, the scent starts to become more floral. The floral notes are nicely blended, no single floral note is discernable to my nose. I would never classify this as a floral however - it's a little salty, a little sweet, a little spicy, a little floral all at once. The combination of these sensations is what makes it unique to me.

I love this! I found this when I asked the woman at the counter for something sweet but sexy. She sprays this on a card for me - done! :) Sweet and friendly enough for women to compliment, and alluring enough for my guy friends to be intrigued. It's chocolatey and smooth, but there's something more - something spicy and really lively that catches your attention. Beautiful. I find it pairs very well with Black Vetyer Cafe. Very seductive.

This is one of the most unusual sweet and spicy scents I have ever discovered. Beautiful and chocolatey. I am now trying some of the combinations recommended and new ones I think may work. Best way to wear a unique fragrance. Thanks Jo!
