Cosmic (for women)

Mrs.Honey

I have a decant of this one and really like it. I find it comforting, though it is not a comfort scent. I first wore it to an all-day conference but I get sweet, powdery, and peachy, but it is not a simple fragrance. I tend to want a perfume rather than just a collection of smells. Although this one is technically a chypre, while Stoned is an oriental, I like both and can see how they are related. If you liked Stoned, this one is worth sampling.

Oh and I forgot to mention that I never saw any stardust in it...must be invisible to the naked eye! :)

I put this on last night to sample. The first ten minutes smelled a lot like Amouage Gold to me...and since I loathed that, I didn't like this one either. I wanted to like it because the bottle is so very cool. I even kept it on to wait for the dry-down, despite complaining for several hours to my boyfriend. He said all he smelled was cinnamon and patchouli.

First hour or so was very aldehydic with lots of myrrh, which was a nose-burning combination to me. At one point I thought I detected the scent of blood. At times it was metallic and other times more floral. Cosmic's dry-down was very, very powdery...I found that to be the most pleasant part of this perfume. The next morning I could still smell it on my skin, but the dry-down had turned sour and smelled like burnt sweat. Yuck! At least it has great staying power.

I will never buy...definitely not something I want in my collection, regardless of how nifty the bottle is!
