After hearing so much about this fragrance I was excited to try it myself. The opening is amazing, so much white floral and bright citrus swirling around but anchored with the cumin and other earthy smelling notes. Unfortunately, the dry down smells like cheap plastic children's toys on me. After about an hour all the goodness is gone and it just smells synthetic and unappealing on my skin.
Hard to believe this scent didn't go over well in America, or that it's been discontinued. It's so sensual, and not like anything I've ever worn before.
