A Fragrance That’s Been in the Making for Over 5 years, the House of Creed Seems to Have Launched Another Delightfully Charming Fragrance. Let's See How Far That Claim Holds.
A scent inspired by the grace and beauty of a dancer's flowing movement, no wonder it took 5 years to make! But we like this unique source of inspiration and so today we will be talking about this vibrant, and sparkling floral fragrance. Together, we will decide whether it belongs in your vanity or not.
Now, about the notes. The top notes are of Jasmine, Peach, and Orange Blossom, and the heart notes are of Jasmine Sambac, Tuberose Absolute, and Rose Centifolia. The base notes feature Iris, Orange Blossom, Musk, Sandalwood, and Praline. The fragrance itself is beautiful and sparkling which feels magical. It is sensual and femininely floral and the nose behind this vibrant fragrance is Olivier Creed. It opens with sweet jasmine that comes wrapped around a zesty Tunisian orange blossom scent, carrying a fruity peach note along with it. The depth and texture are provided by the delicate jasmine flower, tuberose petals, and a soft rose extract. After that, you get a warm sandalwood flurry that comes twisted around iris and musk, bringing a vibrant orange blossom note. The whole scent is offset by the creamy praline to round this fragrance out.
We read through hundreds of reviews, so you don't have to! All the useful information is in this article so you can make an informed decision.

Let's talk about the bottle first. It doesn't seem like a very unique design, but hey, the packaging matters too, right? What is different here is that you have the option to customize it by adding an engraving. It will be engraved on the back of the bottle and you get 2 lines of text. All that glitz and glam might be for nothing though, as the users report only a moderate sillage, and the longevity is voted to range from moderate to weak. The first spritz might remind you of Miss Dior 2021. Some go so far as to claim it smells like Coco Mademoiselle.

The peach dies down in a few minutes and a thick dusty note of jasmine comes after. And the other florals warm it up a bit. This does last long on clothes although we cannot promise the same longevity for application on the skin. Although the opening might feel a bit ugly, it quickly turns into a cold and well-done iris scent. While some claim it makes you smell like a rich granny, others seem to disagree, so you can be the judge of that. However, this seems to be the ideal wedding day scent. It is a classy, modern, and richly nuanced scent. It also becomes sweeter as the fragrance dries down. It might be pretty, but sadly, the scent doesn't seem to be all that original. But if a posh and feminine scent is what you prefer, you can pull the trigger on this purchase.
