I picked up a trial of this and have mixed emotions. It's sugary sweet with a soft floral tone. It vaguely reminds me of YSL Cinema. I do like it and I would purchase a small bottle to wear every so often if it weren't so expensive, but I don't like it enough to pay the exorbitant price tag. I totally disagree that it smells even slightly reminiscent of Angel, but then I'm an Angel fan. :)

OMG this is the perfect fragrance for autumn/winter period and long summernight parties. So seductive, so deep n sooo full-bodied.
Sweet-floral-fruity; one of a kind n is a grown up scent not just a sweet slipslop. Draws thousands of compliments.
Deffinetely worths the price.

My mum gave me a little tube of this that came with the facial product stuff she bought the other day. thinking it would be a awful old smelling scent i tried some on, but actually it wasn't too bad!
Didn't really like the opening notes tho.. like other's below said it smelt a bit like rotting fruit...but absolutely loved the dry down! It was like a combination of vanilla and musk with a hint of manderin. perfect for winter~ however when i finish this little tube i don't think i would go buy the whole thing. Not perfect in my view :p

I like the bottle, realy nice, fragrance is little bit strong for me but the body milk is great (and bottle is also cute :-D)It´s vanilla sweet and fruity ... yes I want it, it is very deep feminine fragrance suitable for special occasion or for hot summer party.

I wanted very badly to like this perfume, as I tested it in a Neiman Marcus a few years ago and remember being extremely impressed.

I sampled it tonight on my skin and have decided that my tastes must have changed drastically! I think Miss Nightingale really hit the spot with her description of almost-rotting fruit...

Opening notes are very, very sweet in an almost nauseating way to me. Oddly, at some points it reminded me of a sweeter version of Ange Ou Demon, as I definitely got the white lily note in the middle. The only part of this scent I enjoyed was the dry-down, which ended up surprisingly musky with just the right hint of patchouli.

I will say I think the bottle is super cool...but I just can't wear this again.

I would describe this a s a fruity version of Noa Chacarel; a little bit spices added also. Despite of some bad reviews I read here, this is a really good perfume, sexy and feminine, with a pretty good lasting power.

I would also like to compliment the bottle - very funky and very glam rock.

Reminds me a lot of Tom Ford Black Orchid, just a little more "cotton candy-ish."

My mother always told me "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all" but I have always held with Dorothy Parker: "If you don't have anything nice to say, come sit by me..."

An utterly horrific concoction in every sense, I'm afraid. The bottle is some sort of prototype Darth Vader helmet design that has been covered in glittery nail polish by an over-excited toddler. Not a good first impression and there's only worse to come.

Perhaps on some of you this will be glorious, but on me the overwhelming opening notes are a confused melange of ripe (almost rotting!) fruit that has a background of fake chocolate and flowers. On a blind test I would have sworn this was a cheap copy-cat of Angel (which I also loathe - so if you're an Angel lover you may safely assume we have different tastes and ignore me completely!) but just look at the brand. One would expect so much more from so prestigious a company.

On paper I should love this, a lot of my favourite notes are there, yet I don't get a single one of them. Sadly, this is sickly and jarring on my skin.

It's a very pleasurable and nice comforting winter scent. Silky sweet, but absolutely not sickening. I can smell a harmonic lily scent, which is very appealing to my nose :) But lasting power is not very good... What a pity :S

it's balanced quite well, and actually, unless you know to look for it, the patchouli isn't easily detected.

I'm not sure what I smell. I just experienced this wonderful scent through a magazine strip today, but it's an unusual, unforgettable fragrance. I would love to add this to my collection.
