    In the bottle: I can't separate the notes, and its a lot sharper then I expected. I didn't love it from first sniff.

     

    Splashed on: Oooh this is beautiful. I get a faint sandalwood behind the vanilla and peach. It adds complexity and matures the very sweet smell.

     

    After a few hours: Still there, mellowed and soft, like incense smoke, without the smoke! I really like this scent. Sometimes it almost smells honey like, and then goes back to the vanilla and peach.

     

    After several hours: All gone! Decent staying power, not super long lasting. Doesn't matter, I'm happy to reapply!

     

    Overall, a beautiful, feminine scent that isn't girly. The sandalwood stops it being candylike, and it makes me happy to wear it. A really warming scent, good for summer, or maybe just wishing it were a bit warmer!

    Hurruh, my first smell review!

     

    In the bottle: Very herby, almost savoury. Reminds me of broken greenery. It's not an overwhelming scent, it slowly appears.

     

    Wet: Very nice indeed. On the skin, the scent becomes warmer, and the sweetness, which I couldn't detect before comes out. Again it's like the smells of a forest, but not tropical or pine. Bruised leaves, and small flowers.

     

    Settling in: The scent seems to have gone a bit powdery, almost soapy. Very sweet now, not much of the herby essence left.

     

    After a few hours: The powder has gone away, leaving a delicate warm mingled sweet smell. No single notes discernable, but it's a lovely scent.

     

    And as I was getting into bed, I took an experimental sniff of my wrist, and could still find the scent. So it's got decent staying power also.
