- BFBrooke F.07/18/2026Reviews 28Products received 53Not for meI smelled this on a test strip in store & loved it… it was a clean, sweet pear scent. On my skin it pulls a weird note that almost smells like playdough? Really disappointing :(00

- AFAleksandra F.07/11/2026Reviews 2Products received 8One of my favoritesThis scent is so mature, so nice, too me its peppery and musky, at least thats how it reads on my skin, I LOVE there is nothing too sweet about it since I am not fan of floral and sweet scents. I will forever repurchase this scent.My ratingsSpicyMysteriousEverydayFallFreshRefined00
