Sultane

This is a very interesting perfume. Sultane is my Genie in a bottle, I have never known a perfume like it. When I first sprayed it on, there was an opening sweetness and then nothing... Sprayed again, sweetness, nothing... Sprayed again, sweetness, nothing... So I gave up, got in the car and started driving to work. Then something magical started to happen. I could smell peaches, as in Southern Comfort Peaches. Then came the sandalwood and musk. Wow this is a gorgeous scent, wears close to the skin but wafts up every now and then just to remind you it's there. Lasted all day and I think Sultane is on its way to being one of my favourites.

A beautiful perfume... lately I've been craving sweet, delicate, apricoty (I think I just coined a new word here he he) fragrances and this one fits the bill. Almost an exact replica of 'Burberry Classic' & 'Fancy Love' though IMO, Fancy Love is stronger and has more depth. But this is so light and perfect for everyday wear especially through spring and summer. I like the bottle! Tacky as it may seem to some, to my mind, it reminds me of those perfumes you see in period films on the vanities of beautiful women of yore!

The first time I tried this (in the summer), I didn't think much of it. I don't know why, it just didn't grab me, and I don't remember it lasting very well. Well, the weather got colder, and for some reason I decided to give it another go - and my goodness, I'm so glad I did! I have no idea why I was indifferent before. I can still smell it after 6 hours, and is kinda like a warm spicy vanilla. I can't get enough of it!

This perfume is so beautiful! From the bottle to the fragrance! I got it for 10 buck online and it is the best money I have spent in a while! I smell the peach, however it has a bit of spiciness to it that I love. So warm and yet I could wear it in summer or winter. The sillage is great and so is the longevity. If you do not have a bottle of this, you should treat yourself. I am enjoying it!

The Sultane bottle is gorgeous!!! Fabulously rich golden orange colour, and such a gorgeous sultan's headpiece!!! And the bottle looks like a sultan's palace? Very luxurious and opulently beautiful. And the perfume is very interesting and gorgeous. I love it. Sweet, fruity, woody, with beautiful flowers, and a touch of spice. Beautiful.
