it smells sweet and woody... it's smells sophisticated and also sexy. I can't quite explain it, but I just want to keep smelling it!! I will be buying a bottle of this so soooo good!!!

Lasts so long, very unique but super pleasant and almost unisex. Sexy smell!!

Classy, sexy, warm and sweet- It is just the all in one scent. It transforms throughout the day, starts off woodsy and gradually sweetens to a frosted, vanilla scent with wear. I’ve been getting perfumes for years through Scentbird and this is the one I fall in love with over and over.

There are a lot of wonderful reviews of this scent, and I do agree that it's nice. But I wouldn't go beyond that. If you have adventurous tastes, pass on this. It's nothing new...

I was expecting woody and spicy, but most of what my husband could smell was sweet and vanilla. I love the other two Arquiste scents I’ve tried (Anima Dulcis and Sydney Rock Poole), but this just isn’t for me. Recommended, however, for vanilla lovers.

This smell is just not doing it for me. It's a unisex scent for sure, not a feminine fragrance. The primary thing I smell is bourbon. I see a lot of reviews mentioning vanilla, but the vanilla notes don't really come out on me unless I'm really sniffing where I sprayed. Instead, I smell like an expensive bottle of alcohol. It's a little smokey, a little sweet, a little woodsy. The picture it paints in my mind when I smell it is an upscale, old-fashioned bar located somewhere in the woods, filled with lots of brass and leather, and drinks are only served on the rocks. I'm sure this is lots of peoples' favorite, but I went out on a limb wanting to try something a little different, and this was too different for me.

This scent is by far one of my favorite finds.

I wasn’t sure what to expect as this was a little outside of my comfort zone but I really like it! It is warm and spicy but with a hint of sweet. Definitely makes me feel a little bold and sexy! Great for date night!

Smells like description, one of my favorite scents warm and spicy

I just don’t like the smell

Different and bold

I really enjoy scents like this one but the deep musky vibes are more for cold weather. Will be saving this for fall.

Nice scent but didn't last very long.

I prefer cashmere, sandalwood, musky woodsy, vanilla like smells and this doesn't fit to that to me.

It smelled really nice

I get tons of compliments even men asking the name.

Most of the comments I got were "not a man's scent." It is relatively pleasant, and pretty much meets the description. For some reason, it made me think about cream soda.

loved this perfume...

This is a complex scent that changes as you wear it. As the first notes of tobacco and chocolate come across first, as it mellows other woodsy notes come out. Wonderfully complex and I have received many compliments.

It was okay

Rich and exquisite. Long lingering scent of vanilla.

It’s okay

Just another vanilla scent, nothing interesting. Gave it to my mom

Musky but slightly sweet. If you like to share ...you and your partner can both wear!

Ok. Smells ok. Not a favorite but I’ll use it

All of the scents I’ve received so far smell good when I first put in them can’t smell after a few minutes. I’m thinking of cancelling.

I really like the sweet vanilla smell.

I am really impressed with this fragrance. After it dried down, it was subtle, pretty and lasted longer than I expected.

I love it. My assistant loves it. We like opposite things in fragrance and this seemed to over us both. I love a rich but not overpowering complex scent and this nails it.

i had the wrong perception

The smell is overpoweringly sweet and it is very strong. I did not enjoy this scent at all.

Did not like the smell at all.

This fragrance is absolutely fantastic. A truly Unisex fragrance, in my opinion, as it straddles the very fine line between soft sweetness and bold spiciness masterfully. The most notable note is undeniably the Vanilla, which doesn't smell sickly sweet and candy-like but instead creates a warm, refined backdrop for the bold, peppery & woodsy notes. I think this is one of those fragrances that perfectly illustrates how a Unisex fragrance can sway more towards Male or Female simply by the body chemistry of the person wearing it. I personally like to layer this with other more classically masculine scents as it seems to only enhance and add complexity to other fragrances.

Smells like vanilla overall but gives you the munches no doubt

it smelt too much like a gin and tonic

It's a nice scent, just not my preference.

This is by far my favorite! A sexy mysterious scent.

absolutely beautiful. very strong juniper berry gin opening, almost medicinal, but the dry down is the most lovely authentic comforting vanilla i’ve ever smelled. addicting.

Not my preference at all. Like the Dollar store Versions of cologne. Just not impressed.

really sexy, warm scent

I can’t say enough, I have a new favorite💗 Victor and Rolf Flower Bomb was #1, then my next go to was Versace Crystal absolu but I got to say hands down ❣️🌙❣️ 🎶🥰🎶 At first it does have that alcohol peppery smell you expect from description, but right after is this bright woodsy clean smell that tells the room you are smart, intelligent and have a mysterious charm about you that you have mastered and THAT is damn sexy!!! I will always have this on my dresser. This is a must have for any woman coming into her own❣️❤️♥️🌙♥️❤️❣️

I didn't like the way it smell

The vanilla was sickeningly strong, it overpowered any other fragrance buried underneath it. Almost like wearing straight vanilla extract

The description was as described (but a tad sweet); smells woodsy, reminds me of a subdued Fendi

It has a beautiful vanilla undertone and has a nice musk as well. It smells feminine despite the musk. Really love this.

I didn’t like it at all it’s just not for me

The vanilla overrides everything else, way too strong.

the Vanilla gave this scent a very warm deliciousness we just love

This is the best smelling cologne I've smelled in my entire life. I absolutely love it and I think I'm going to bite the bullet and purchase a full bottle of it for a quite expensive price of $195. Elegance at its finest!!

This is not too overpowering and is a diverse scent you could wear on multiple occasions. one of my favorites.

The scent was very over powering. One spray is MORE than enough

This smells just like the description. I was surprised by the compliments I got from this one. I like it but did not see it as a crowd pleaser. Performance is solid with this one.

Elizabeth Taylor white diamonds smell . Pine & needles smell too yuck

It smelled like men's cologne I did not like it at all

Vanilla is great. So sweet

This scent is light and sophisticated. It feels appropriate for everyday wear or a night out.

Too much vanilla for me but very unique

A little too sweet

Very overpowering vanilla!

Unique and very nice!

This one is pretty pungent. I did like the smell of it initially, it kind of did smell like book pages. It wore on tho and got sweeter. It was semi-permanent I felt like. I actually kind of hated it after awhile, so I don't think I'll ever use this one again. I do like the premise behind the fragrance. It paints a good picture given the description of it.

At first smell the vanilla was over powering, but once it melted into my skin It was rather nice. The vanilla was Still the dominant smell, but it became light and sweet allowing the other scents to come through. It makes for a nice winter fragrance.

By far my favorite perfume

It's pretty much just a dull vanilla

I came across this scent while in New Orleans and couldn’t forget it. So happy with the light, woody scent. Very unique.

It has a nice overall smell. A little to powerful & a little too sweet but decent.

I really enjoyed this scent overall. It was warm, woody, and made me feel very happy. However, it's really strong. Its best used with just a spritz on the wrists or neck. Don't overdo it.

Smells very boozy, like a gentlemans bar. I like it, but the vanilla tones are a bit much for me.

This smells exactly like the description, and has a very interesting flavor of vanilla that I haven't smelled before. It's almost spicy but I really like it.

Love!

I love this scent just as much as I wanted to, maybe even more. I had long searched for a vanilla that wasn't overly flat, or synthetic. This is a bold vanilla, not shying behind tons of sugar, proud of its alcohol. A sexy man could easily wear this. I wear this not when I want attention, but when I know I will be getting it anyway. It's warm - it doesn't inspire confidence, it compliments it. The citrus makes me think of tan skin in white cotton cooling in an island breeze.

absolutely love it and have received so many compliments on its uniqueness. loving this fragrance has made me explore other unisex fragrances, but i'll definitely always come back to this as "the one"

Loved this new scent! It was warm sweet and very rich.

There’s a sweet tinge ( like in “Angel” ) that is off putting.

This is the smoothest, most realistic vanilla scent I’ve ever smelled. It smells EXACTLY like walking into an ice cream parlor I can’t stop sniffing myself. This has no edges or bite whatsoever, just creamy, grown-up vanilla. You must like gourmand scents to enjoy this. Totally unisex.

Very nice, smells like you're sipping a gin and tonic in an old wooden bar while wearing vanilla perfume.

Wonderful

Woody

Love it

Not too sweet...very leather bound books and cigars take on a vanilla fragrance.

love the vanilla

if you love vanilla look no further. yes it is unisex.

This has been my favorite perfume to date! I absolutely love the layers of this scent! It’s subtle, but bold. It’s delicate, but interesting. I love the slight smokiness that it has, but also the surprising freshness too. The little bit of vanilla makes it feminine, but there are so many complex notes that it’s very dramatic. Definitely my favorite!

Very classy!!! Tells a lot about who’s wearing it. I’ll let your mind wonder!!

Liked this a lot, but it's definitely not for everyday use.

It reminds me of the smell of a new book, I really love this one. One of my favorites so far

I pickup the lemon right away. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this or not, but I love it!

Not a good scent for me. Too vanilla musky
