Smells so beautiful and soft I have been getting compliments on how good I smell.

This is not a safe blind buy. The opening is citrusy because of the orange blossom note. The marshmallows come in in the dry down. I love the dry down of this perfume but I do not like the opening. Do not get this if you do not like citrusy perfumes. It smells good.However, you can get sick of it as time goes on.

The pear and raspberry notes hit me at the top. You get that tart, juicy draw that makes you want to smell it longer. It settles a lot more musky than fruity. Some say this smells like another well known perfume, but I disagree. The notes come together beautifully in way that draws you in fresh and strong but then settles very warm. It doesn't give off marshmallow vibes to me at all. The scent profile on this is mature and elegant. It's something you could smell on a wealthy woman and be shocked at the incredible value and more than fair price. This is in my top 10 fragrances, and I'm a collector.  The bottle is great quality. It's solid like metal and the cap closes firmly on the bottle. The cap is metal over plastic. It's definitely authentic and just a really great value.

If you want a sweet scent, this might work. If you are looking for a "bakery sweet" scent, be careful. This is going to need some time in perfume jail to get there.This is described here as being "floral" & it has some floral notes (I get the rose note), but that's way underneath the candy-sweet scent.As usual with every Lattafa I have so far, this needs time to ripen. Brand new, the candy notes just screeches at you over everything else. It gave me cherry cough medicine vibes & I hated it. It came across like a perfume for kiddies. However, after the first few days, it is already starting to come together. It's still candy-sweet (think of those syrupy gummies that stick to your teeth), but some of the citrus and raspberry start to come through. On the dry down, I get some of the calming and grown-up powder.Knowing Lattafa as I do, I'm going to continue letting this get its act together and try it again in about 2 weeks. I expect the magic that always happens. Already, the vanilla comes out a bit on the dry down.By the way, the bottle is nice enough as is the box. Neither are as dramatic as some other Lattafa designs. The gold stands out nicely against the red. The top looks like what Poirot or some other fancy gentleman would have on his walking stick. There is a booklet included that shows other fragrances in the collection & listing notes and accords.

Okay, I read the reviews and heard the hype and pulled the trigger for a Christmas gift. I sprayed it and was about to trash it. I sprayed it on myself and about a minute later I was thinking "okay, this is good enough for my girlfriend's daughter". About 5 minutes later, I thought "nope this one is definitely girlfriend status. So.... back to the drawing board for the girlfriend's daughter.10 scalePowdery 9 at first then calms to a 4 after the dry down.Sweet 2 at first then went to a 6 after the dry down.Projection at first is a gross 8.5 afterthe dry down about a 7 and way better.Sillage is about a 7.Longevity about 6 hours.Playfully sweet and sexy anytime scent, leaning more towards colder weather.Atomizer is "meh", presentation is pretty good, I have paid a lot more and got a lot less for sure. Bottle and cap are well made and both have decent heft to them.Get past the initial spray, be patient and overall it's a 7.5 out 10 in my opinion after the dry down. It is classy and leans more to the 30+ crowd.
