Paraphrase: "The name Smoked Bloom might be a bit misleading, as there's no discernible tobacco or smoky note listed or detected. Instead, it wears beautifully with a fresh blend of green woody branches, apricot, and orange. It reminds me of picking an orange straight from the tree, with the green, earthy scent of the broken branch mingling with the fruit's bright aroma. A subtle creaminess balances the sharpness of the bergamot, creating a well-rounded composition. A truly beautiful fragrance."
Paraphrase: "Lovely comforting scent, while complex and interesting. The darker smokier base supports the shimmery top notes and reads as quite sexy. Great lasting power and lovely dry down without being too heavy. A fruit scent for those who don't love fruit scents. A favourite in my collection."
