Not cinnamon for me--clovey clovey cloves! Luscious wet sort of cloves--maybe the open blossoms instead of the dried buds we're used to? Anyhow, wet it was all cloves. As it dries down, I get baby powder--only nice and comforting, with a little spice, not nasty cloying baby powder--and then a little freshly baked white cake steals in. There's a little bit of floral in there too, but it's off in the distance and impossible for me to identify
I loved reading this description! You've articulated a number of things here that I couldn't quite pinpoint. I didn't get the cinnamon either, but would love to know what the floral element in the distance is. It's something sweet and familiar but it's still eluding me. And I thought I smelt the faintest hint of something citrus when I first applied it, but that seems to have disappeared now.
I may need a full bottle of this one too.
