Is this fragrance suitable for office wear?+−
While it can be worn in a professional setting if applied lightly, its richness and creamy depth make it much better suited for evening events, nights out, or leisure time during the colder months.
How does the vanilla note come across in this composition?+−
The vanilla absolute functions more as a smoothing agent than a sugary dessert note. It provides a creamy texture and rounds out the bitter facets of the myrrh, rather than making the fragrance smell like a gourmand.
Does the myrrh make this smell like incense?+−
Yes, the myrrh adds a balsamic and slightly smoky oriental quality to the base, which distinguishes it from more traditional, fresh tuberose soliflores.
Is this a good choice for someone who dislikes sweet perfumes?+−
It is classified as a floral sweet fragrance, but the sweetness comes from the natural creaminess of the tuberose and vanilla absolute rather than synthetic sugar. The herbal davana and resinous myrrh provide enough balance to keep it from feeling cloying.
