Stilettos on Lex

Like others have said, at first this is a sweet powdery pear with a hint of floral. Personally, I don’t get much of a lipstick scent from it. After a couple hours on me it turns into a very subtle powdery/sweet/musky skin scent. I love it but I wish the initial scent lasted longer. It has decent projection for the first hour but fades way too quickly. I’m torn between wanting a full bottle and thinking it’s not worth it because this one’s not cheap enough to respray constantly.

The more I use it, the more I truly admire it. The notes are accurate but it’s one of those scents where the mathematical whole is more than the sum of the parts. It’s somehow architectural, but not in a heavy way: very airy, intelligent, logical and transparent. It isn’t an « easy girl », not a Marie-couche-toi-là, she won’t sleep at first and this one needs to be deserved. Take your time. Yes women have a head and a heart, and seduction is not always naked sugar. And?

I am lucky enough to have received a FB of Stilettos on Lex this year. Thank you, Santa!!! :) Although I really liked it when tried it in a sample form, I ADORED it when I had the real thing in my hands!!! It is one of the most - if not THE most- luxurious, refined, elegant presentation and perfume ever!! From the exquisite scent to the heavy glass bottle to the gorgeous Travel Spray to the presentation case, I am conquered!!! All the way!

This is just gorgeous, lush and dewy. I can't pick out the individual notes but they mesh so beautifully together. If I had to, I'd say it's the perfume of a woman in control; a powerful woman. It lasts for hours and hours on me and I keep going for it even though I only have a decant of it. Edit June 19th-I had to buy a full bottle. This is definitely signature-scent territory!

Woooow, I get such a late 90s-early 2000s flashback smelling this! I can't put my finger on what it reminds me of, but I swear I've smelled this as a child and I feel like it must have been a hair product of some sort.. Definately detect lily-of-the-valley and carnation along with soft pear and lots of clean musk. Very feminine and fresh. Love it!
