Kat Von D Poetica

I adore Poetica. It's perfect for rainy days, rainy nights. It's a warm, gooey, plummy mix that radiates distinctly and lifts my spirits. The berries and fruit are thick without a doubt, wrapped in a musky haze that scintillates and mesmerizes. This is not a sweet concoction, rather, it's a misty fog of a perfume that will bring you back in time to shrouded capes and cobblestone streets. Woods and praline further entice your senses in a delicious blend quite unlike many of today's offerings. Wearable year-round. I find Poetica to be my rainy-day perfume, it always fits the weather perfectly. It's thick with rich fruits and florals, as the air is when it rains, as if you are walking through a rain-drenched thicket. It lasts well for a number of hours and radiates quite decently. The bottle is chunky and quite pretty, too. It is available on her site, along with many of her other perfumes.There seems to be an animal-like quality, a darkness to Poetica. Perhaps it's the thickness of it, the darkness of the scent. It makes one feel empowered, sensual, and just delicious. The more I wear it, the more I delight in it.

Ok first of all, this is DEFIANTLY NOT a gourmand in any way shape or form. I get major flowers here!!!!Lots n lots of rose & tuberose, very nice tuberose actually, I can't smell no cherry or berries at all , but just a tad bit tartness off the top from the passionfruit??? I can detect the dustiness of the orchid a bit, and I really am a choco perfume lover, and this , sad to say does not have it at all. I think the notes might just be posted wrong. I do however pick on some woods in the drydown. I normally dislike straight floral's, but this is very pretty, I have not liked a pretty scent in a loooong time. Oh and this smells better when you get a wiff, not when you smell it directly on the skin, so best apply light because it last a long long time unlike the first 2 scents.

OMG, i love it, the opening is citrusy, then it become very floral but in a good way, the lasting power is nice, the bottle really pretty!

I LOVE this perfume even though I don't like Von D herself. I bought this in two rollerball s and I'm so annoyed that I didn't buy the whole bottle when I had the chance because they've discontinued it! :((((( This is a versatile, floral scent. Perfect for any season, and it's SO pretty. I love the sharp notes that make it stand out among the other celebrity perfumes. I definitely do not smell any fruit or gourmand out of it at all, just sharp florals. I'm obsessed. Such a sexy scent that makes me feel like a badass when I wear it. I'm literally so upset that they've discontinued it, it's one of her best perfumes. I'm really not a big fan of her other ones at all If anyone knows of a scent that smells like poetica or even remotely similar, pleaseeeeeeee let me know. I gotta get on that!!

if you are looking to get a bottle of poetica I found a bottle on kat von d's website and store just go to wonderland la and it is on the site! I'm so glad I found it!
