Caramelle Rosse

I think I'm in love...This is a fabulous scent. The jasmine, almond, and ambergris come together to make the most spectacular caramel scent that lingers for the entire day. The sweetness blends with the saffron, cedar, and musk keeping it from being too cloying. You can't go wrong with this one if you love gourmands.

Today I wore this layered with Qaed Al Fursan Unlimited by Lattafa...winner winner chicken dinner...Caramelle Rosse brings out all the fruity goodness of QAF Unlimited. Love this combo!

Today I wore this with Nivea creme....not a good combo. Made the ambergris too pronounced and more like Body Odor....unless that is your thing...then go for it.

A great BR540E alternative. I am not a huge fan of BR540E, but this smells much like it, minus a slight quality bump. That is to be expected at this price range though. Most people will barely notice the difference. It's sweet, unabashedly so. Sweet ambergris, which is also slightly airy and salty that allows it to work in warmer weather as well. Creamy bitter almond and saffron merge to give this that sweetness that is so intriguing, yet polarizing. The jasmine is also on the sweeter side and not indolic at all. This one will last you around 10 hours. You will probably go nose blind to it, but it's still there. I am not a fan of ultra-sweet perfumes, but this is well done. I do think it's better suited for females than men though. Men can wear it though. It's just not my style. Read full reviews on my blog: musingsofafraghead.blogspot.com/

Although this is inpsired by BR540 Extrait de Parfum, this smells as if BR540 Eau de Parfum & Extrait de Parfum had a baby to my nose. Initially, it smells really similar to the Eau de Parfum, but with more of a masculine edge. About an hour into the dry down, it is a bit sweeter (almost caramel-like), and has a bit of the mintiness that I smell in the Extrait de Parfum. So I get a piece of each of those fragrances for a fraction of the cost! Not to mention the amazing sillage, projection, & longevity! So surprised this isn't talked about more. I love this!
