VioletChaos Report post Posted Thursday at 05:58 PM In The Bottle: Strong lilac, light cream, maaaaaybe a slight edge of the musk. It's a bit overwhelming, not the floral I expected from, say, The Lilac Wood. Wet On Skin: The lilac grows softer and more powdery (not baby powder, no worries) and the elemi starts to make an appearance, helping to stave off the initial jolt of cloying floral. No violet yet, alas. Hopefully it shows up in drydown... Dry Down: Wow. It takes a while to get here, but it's definitely worth the wait. The lilac continues to fold itself into that "cream" aspect, the musk softens it further and the elemi brings a bit of spice, reminding me of a pink phlox note, and pulling it all together. In All: A spicy, sexy confection of medium-to-high throw, so apply sparingly until you see how it reacts with your chemistry. I was definitely worried when I sniffed it in the bottle, but I'm delighted with the final outcome! 🌸🌸 🌸 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
