To Be Confirmed

Simplistic minimal tea + floral scent, the tea note itself closest I could compare would be like a Neptunes Trident, fresh, green and herbal, no bitterness but does have this “shimmering” quality to it I can’t quite figure out. Florals smell vaguely white and soapy, not bad but I wouldn’t say there is a rich bouquet in here. Overall it’s nice but feels half-baked with its je ne ce quois to be confirmed

A nice light floral tea fragrance. Reminds me of a cross between black and green tea. The floral note is not too prominent but it is slightly noticeable. I’ve never smelt tulip before but this particular floral note reminds me of the iris in Tiffany and CO.’s Tiffany, a non lipsticky light and green floral.

To me it smells like a mix of fresh cut flowers and walking through the beauty floor of Selfridges. I tend to wear this if I'm going somwhere socially busy, as it feels very mingle friendly and inoffensive and the freshness it brings keeps you feeling confidently expensive... which it is!

For a brand like Balenciaga their new perfume line is surprisingly unremarkable. I smelled all the bottles multiple times but none of them left me any solid impressions. To Be Confirmed is for sure super easy to wear, but it’s just a bottle of juice that “smells pretty good”. Zero character. A little bit of tea with a little bit of flower. Ultra safe combination. Even soaps at Whole Foods smell more distinct. It’s not a terrible fragrance by any means but it’s way too generic for that 320 + tax price tag :/

I’ve been testing the whole Le Dix collection from their discovery set. I have tested 8 of them on my skin and this is one of two that I simply cannot wear - the other being Getaria. While Getaria genuinely turns my stomach, To Be Confirned is just not pleasant to my nose. It’s uncomfortable to wear. It leans more towards feminine. The floral bouquet smells cheap to me - not a bouquet of elegant flowers. There’s something pungent and sharp about this combination of flowers - maybe a flower note among this bouquet that is overpowering the experience and spoiling it for me. Not for me or for my nose.
