Dismay Sigh for “Don’t be Shy!”

You should never face the day without perfume as it’s the reflector of the heart. We believe if it’s something that makes an opinion it should be grandeur, now what is more opulent than wearing the same scent as the mommy-to-be, Rihanna. She wears the iconic perfume by the most sumptuous brand, Kilian Paris. A brand that was established by the heir to a long line of cognac makers who were pioneers in luxury, Kilian Hennessy. By carrying his childhood memories his fragrances today are ruling the world. In 2007, when he launched his namesake brand his ambition was lucid, to combine elegance and uncompromising luxury. Their “Love, don’t be shy” is in Rihanna’s vanity, should it reach yours too? Let’s find out!

Speaking of this summery perfume, it is the one you choose when you want to satisfy the craving pang of new love. Made with top notes of Neroli, Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Coriander; middle notes of Orange Blossom, Honeysuckle, Rose; and base notes of Sugar, Caramel, Vanilla, Musk, Civet, and Labdanum, is a super sweet perfume and surprisingly the brand doesn’t apologize for it. Now we’re pretty sure having disclosed that it's Rihanna's favorite scent, the adrenaline rush to buy the best smelling celebrity perfume got high, but to be completely honest, this perfume has the power to make you nauseous.

Sorry, not sorry as the new version of this iconic perfume by the brand gets a whiff of “bathroom air freshener.” As mentioned before, it is too sweet and the brand uses this to their advantage and therefore people who prefer such strong scents can consider buying this one. It also makes sure to last for a complete 20 minutes, fascinating right? I mean if you can’t smell that fine, make sure to not just vanish before we begin the day!

Moving forward, the packaging does deliver some chicness through its fancy light-colored glass bottle and shiny gold. You might have expected more while looking at it online, so make sure you don’t get your hopes high. Lastly, one can definitely decide with some customer reviews. Some state this one as ‘cheap’, smells like ‘rotten candy’ and of fruity pebbles but in the gloomiest way. While some also prefer its floral undertone, it just doesn’t deserve the hype it got. To sum up, if you are a bad girl Riri’s fan you are anyway going to purchase it, nothing can change that. Bye-bye now!
