The perfume smells like strong baby powder and sweet vanilla ,longevity on the skin is all day and night outstanding ,it definitely projects .i would say is a great quality if you enjoy very powdery scents .

Try it you won’t be disappointed
This scent reminds me of my grandma as this was her go to. I was reluctant to buy it because I didn’t want to smell like a grandma. The good news is I don’t and it is a fresh smell in a beautiful bottle. It is definitely one of three of my go to scent.

Heavy powder and vanilla notes
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Packaging is beautiful. Would prefer to wear the perfume at night versus the day due to its heavier musky notes of vanilla and powder. I am usually a fan of floral powder vanilla notes, however this was too heavy in powder/vanilla for me for me to reach for this scent more than other scents I do wear. I do have to say though that it has been growing on me the last two months though because it has a scent like no other that is growing on to me.

Absolutely stunning
A 100% agree with the others who were weary about getting this, but now that I have I am absolutely obsessed. If you love the OG but hated the grandma note it was giving off, this is the more luxurious modern version

after reading the reviews as a little nervous. However, after my own experience, I love this perfume. My favorite part is to dry down. I notice some people just don’t have good taste... when come to perfumes

Classic Perfume with Powdery Notes
I was genuinely surprised that I didn’t care for Guerlain Shalimar EDP, especially since I love several of the Guerlain Allegoria fragrances. Shalimar is undeniably a classic and has clearly stood the test of time, which I can appreciate from a perfumery standpoint. However, on my skin it leaned very powdery and musky, and overall felt a bit too mature for my personal taste. While I understand why this fragrance is so iconic and beloved by many, it just wasn’t the right fit for me.

Try it before you buy it.
I Love it but it’s definitely vintage style. Smells like old school, powdery Chanel perfumes. I personally love it, but you have to like vintage cosmetics scents.

Long lasting
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This perfume is warm, rich, and really beautiful as it settles on your skin. Upon first spray, it can be a bit overwhelming so remembera little goes a long way. It has a nice depth to it with cozy, vanill notes. It feels perfect for date nights or special occasions. As it settles on your skin, it turns into a soft, lovely vanilla musk that smells amazing and long lasting!

Complex warm fragrance
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This perfume is beautifully complex and mature. It has layers to it that are warm and spicy, most notably amber and vanilla. I think it'd be good for romantic evenings and special occasions. When the scent develops you are left with a fabulous vanilla musk.
