Wow – this perfume is really unexpected. Don't look at the notes – because they do not represent what you get!

The first burst of this fragrance is spicy, sweet, vanillary and slightly fruity. It does not change dramatically but becomes slightly more floral and powdery as it dries down.

It is almost a floral oriental in my opinion and I really like it. It reminds me of a spiced fruit dessert, sweet, spicy and delicious.

My boyfriend really liked this one on me too, which is always a bonus.

It is distinctive, but not overpowering, and is not that long-lasting (sadly).

This fragrance lends itself to wearing on late summer evenings as it is full of spice and fruit. I think it would also appeal to a wide age-group too – as it is easy going and pleasant.

Presented in a glass bottle that is almost segmented (these segments are supposed to represent chakras) with a metallic lid.

It's not the most individual fragrance but it is mellow, ripe and heady and distinctly reminiscent of late summer.

Certainly one of my favourite Boss fragrances to date.
