Bravery

I don’t think it’s an exact dupe of Hypnotic Poison, but a fantastically similar one! Both vaunt that iconic playdoh-esque, almond like accord that I adore, but Bravery has an almost clean lavender vibe whilst HP, a soft fruity one. Bravery is like an alter ego of HP. To me, HP would be a hypnotic and alluring person whilst Bravery would be a magnetic scintillating one. And of course one can be both of those things, which is why I prefer the “alter ego” connotation; the same DNA but a different vibe. Both fantástic! You could even say that Bravery is slightly more unisex than HP.

Well, now I understand why this is spring/fall and not spring/summer. In high heat, Bravery has no sillage and projection. But in milder weather, it is, indeed, a masterpiece. Fall is definitely this frags strongest season. Please dont leave a review if you havent smelled what youre reviewing. I couldn't believe the previous commentor even did this, much less admit to it. Unbelievable.

Wow! Difficult to describe this masterpeice. Very smooth, very well balanced, round, cocoony, creamy, cozy, delicate but noticeable, elegant. I detect white flowers at the start, amber, a hint of vanille, very delicate hint of lavender on the backstage. No comparisons to anything, very refined composition.

Urghhhh to die for !!!! Just stunning to my nose. The notes are blended very smoothly! Just GORGEOUS. Luxurious hypnotic poison vibe, this is the sexier, wealthier sibling!

A pleasant powdery Oriental fougere composition. The perfume opens briefly with notes of lavender, saffron and pepper. The heart is floral mostly rose and lily. The perfume settles on a powdery slightly mossy bed of vanilla, oakmoss, amber, sandalwood and synthetic musk. Not hugely innovative, but pleasant, regal and gentle unisex scent with moderate sillage and good longevity. A very safe yet interesting enough composition. Enjoy!
