Once it’s on your skin for a while it’s not too bad but it’s definitely not my favorite

Hello, Shalimar. This smells exactly like Shalimar on me but a bit less manly. It's ... It's really fascinating. I don't tend to gravitate towards patchouli, and even though I can smell the dirt and earth of it in this scent it's absolutely transformed by the powdery florals and cinnamon. It also captures that 60s/70s spirit perfectly without being ridiculous. It's definitely a winter scent, in my opinion. In the summer this would be a literal hot mess, but it smells damn fine with a little chill in the air. Love it.

There is a woodsy powder thing going on with Blomma Cult that seems a little contridictory, but the result is very nice. I am big on woodsy, citrus fragrances and this ads a more formal evening feel to my favorites.

Has a strange almost old lady type smell to it.

On first sniff, I wasn’t sure this scent was for me. But when I wore it for a few minutes I like the scent it settled into. I’m not sure it I would buy it, as it’s definitely on the end of my spectrum, but I’m ok with wearing it this month.

This perfume smells like so many others to me. I don't smell anything distinguishing or original in it.

Smelled to peppery for me .

I get compliments every time I wear this perfume. It's a bit floral on application, but after about a minute, it becomes muskier and more complex. A new favorite.

I feel like it is something a much older women would were. Gave it to my mom

At first spritz, I was worried that this was too strong. however, once it died down it was strong but not overpowering. It has a bit of a feminine smell but also strong and powerful. I felt like I could take on the world wearing this. I wouldn't wear it during the day at work because it is a bit stronger than I like, and I also like something that doesn't shout. However, pair this with a cute pair of heels for a date and you are ready to take the lead.

It was just fine. Nothing really stuck out to me as original - just a average floral perfume.

On first sniff I wasn't a fan, very masculine. But the drydown is actually really nice & the scent lasts all day long! It definitely grows on you...

More floral than I usually like, but liked it more later in the day when the other notes came through. Too strong to wear my nose (ie. neck, chest) but works further down...waist, knees.

Not a fan...

Thought it smelled a little strong but nasty.

The scent is definitely not for me, it is heavy and has a lingering effect that honestly reminds me of an elderly woman's perfume.

I didnt think i would like this smell and once i tried it, it was amazingly beautiful smell!

Kinda smelled like something grandma would wear!

Had a funky masculine smell kinda made me sick yuck

It’s ok but it’s not great. Powder and citrus with a hint of flower

THIS IS TERRIBLEEEEEE

There was a very unpleasant floral scent that I did not appreciate. It smelled like my grandmother's perfume (which I have never found pleasant) and roses. Was not a good combination.

I reeeeeeeeally didn't like this scent. I gave it to my Grandma. I always wear musky scents, Gucci Intense, Tom Ford Black Orchid, etc..... this scent is not on par with them AT ALL.

So this fragrance isn't something I would usually go for, which is why I signed up for scentbird. I was intrigued by the cinnamon note and I am glad I picked it up. This is a very nostalgic scent what I would imagine a music festival in the 60's or 70's to smell like. I really enjoyed this fragrance and am so glad I chose it. I would try others from this brand.

My first impression was actually pretty bad! I thought it smelled way too much of violet and did remind me of the "old lady smell". But let me tell you--it gets so much better throughout the day! The scent calms down by more than 50% and turns into a light, flowery finish. The violet is still there, but much softer. TLDR; If you don't like violet, stay away. Strong at first but has multiple layers throughout the day.

The first note that hit me was the violet. Violet candies were what came to mind. Out of the bottle, this took me straight to an underground pagan bookstore I would frequent as a child. It was more floral than I was expecting, but I think I wore it in the wrong season. I would try it again in the summer. People who think this smells like a grandmother should probably try wearing it outside in the sunshine without deoderant on- just one spray.

I’m surprised these weren’t more highly rated by others! It’s seeiously my ideal scent. I wear anywhere and with anything and it’s not over powering. It’s super sexy and could be worn by anyone.

Smelled nice but, just not on me. My grandmother was excited when I gave it to her. The scent is more 60 yrs+.

I'm glad I took a chance on this scent, despite the poor reviews, because it really agreed with me. It came out of the bottle smelling more like a facial astringent than a perfume and I thought for a minute that I should have steered clear of something so divisive, but it very quickly dried down to a scent that was a nice mixture of sweet, powdery, and floral. It screamed "girlie girl!" to me. I docked a star because it as zero lasting power. The vanilla note hung around the longest, which is pretty typical of my body chemistry. I can totally understand how some of you guys got "old lady" though. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

Loved the scent - not overpowering, just very subtle.

This scent had that powdery slightly floral scent that I just associate with elderly woman. Did not care for at all.

You know that's sent that you smell when you know an old lady was just on the elevator before you? Or walk down a hallway 5 minutes before you and you can still smell her? Yeah this is it! This scent reminded me of every old lady I've ever been stuck behind at a store. This will be going in the garbage immediately!

Smells like something a baby boomer would request to have their body to be spritzed with at their wake. Awful.

I ended up giving this one to a male friend. Very spicy and far too masculine for me

I'm a guy and to me this smelled too sweet and strong. It's more of a girls perfume. I felt nauseous with this scent.

It is an interesting scent. It is one that you either love or hate. I personally love it. It has just the right amount of musk to not be over powering.

I do not like the scent at all. Really disappointed. Feel like unsubscribing.

I wore Cinnabar by Estee Lauder in my 20's and 30's. It's a bit heavy for me now. I've been looking and looking for a new fall/winter scent. Now I have found it! It's the cinnamon that makes all the difference. It's great on me-but I realize not everyone can wear it. But I would urge you to give it a try. It could be you're new signature scent-unique to you once you put it on.

Loved this scent! Nice blend of fruity, floral and musk. Not too heavy. Didn't have any sharp or off notes on me. Lasted very well.

Ehh where do I start... Opening notes, musk with herbal spice. I can't fathom this smelling nice on anyone. I'm so upset this month's perfume had to be this one...

The sent was horrible to me.. I not a musk fan at all. There was nothing I liked about this fragrance.. I sprayed it one time and had to wash my arm. My nose is very sensitive to smell. It reminded me of my grandmother that lived in the country. This fragrance was a let down for me.. A total thumbs down... I'm trying to give it no hearts, but it will not let me..

I think it was a scent that was for older women. Not the best I've had.

Well... I didn't like it. It smells to me like if someone stewed fruits in a syrup and then poured this compote into a leather bag filled with old make up. Longevity is good though.

Did not like this. Too sweet and old for my liking.

Not what I expected. Very strong heavy wooded scent. Would not order again.

I really love this one. It is soft but with substance.

This was a heavier scent than I expected. Along the lines of Decadence by MJ. Also had a "black licorice" note to it that didn't sit well with me.

I was hoping there would be richer patchouli, it's okay but doesn't make me swoon. I wouldn't get again.

Love it! Smells like a classic 70s scent! Takes me back in time.
