7 Minutes

Genuinely the bad reviews for this fragrance are so underserved, and it’s upsetting that the few noses that don’t react as intended (because as a matter of fact there are so many factors that come into play for each humans olfactory senses) for this fragrance are the loudest about it on here. There’s a reason there’s raving about reviews, don’t be fooled, this is a GREAT fragrance. I can tell there’s a Madagascar vanilla element in the fragrance along with a bourbon vanilla, and these two types of vanillas intertwine with the other notes very explosively. The website describes the notes as a journey and the note development definitely does just that. The initial spritz is a Carmel sugared lactonic note. The caramel is a bit sticky and overly sweet, but it settles into vanilla and candied florals that add some dimension to it. The florals are in no way nauseating and are more airy and candied. They’re very light for floral lovers, so this is definitely not a floral fragrance in any way. The base is completely different from the opening, turning into this musky and woody base that’s really overpowering the bourbon vanilla. The lasting ability on this is eternal and it’s definitely a scent that will last after a shower- unfortunately to the reviewer below. But all in all, as a community we should all remember that fragrance is never a uniform experience. Each nose has its own interpretations and preference. A personal opinion or preference is far from fact. That goes for the very few but loud reviews that have called this masculine, when all those around me who have smelled this fragrance have said that this is the most feminine fragrance they’ve smelled. This fragrance is well thought out, extremely well made, and quality is sensed through every spray. The juice is very exquisite and high quality. I would say if you’re leaning on potentially blind buying this, you will like it if you like Commodity Milk+, Silky Woods, Vanilla Woods, Vanilla 28, etcetra. It’s more so its own fragrance, but it can be similar in ways to the ones referenced beforehand.

I LOVE Silky Woods from Goldfield & Banks but I’m getting a bit annoyed with the reviews that basically say don’t look at 7 minutes because it’s Silky Woods. They are both woody vanillas yes and they smell absolutely in the same family but to say having both is redundant or that they are any type of identical is coming from someone with a non working nose. Silky Woods is decadent and smells silky you can tell there’s suede and Oud.. it’s one of the best vanillas of all time. 7 minutes is incredible but so far I’m not sure I’d say it’s one of the best. 7 minutes is a mixture of the woody notes and vanilla but you get a huge dose of that caramel that you can actually smell it’s prominent as heck and there’s NO caramel in SW not even close and doesn’t even smell like there could be. SW also has this tiny touch of suede almost powdery feel. 7 minutes isn’t powdery at all it’s a well blended composition of woody notes mixed with rich caramel and vanilla. It’s not your run of the mill either this fragrance is absolutely of niche higher quality it’s a beautiful scent but its rude to the perfumers and the scents themselves for people to say this is the same as SW.. it’s NOT. I own both and both are entirely different especially on skin so it’s worth owning both. If you can only afford one then it depends on what you like. If you want something sweeter and insanely smooth and sensual then Silky Woods because that’s a favorite of mine. But if you don’t want something as sweet and you want more balance and you enjoy a nice caramel note then choose 7 minutes because it’s well balanced it’s not overly sweet it’s not the average gourmand it’s very balanced with the woody notes. And the concentration is wild. After spraying you can see how oily it is. It lasts forever. Both fragrances are eternal. Both shine in their different ways because they are DIFFERENT.

Kheir 7 minutes - it reminds me of September 17 around 5:20 pm. It’s reminds me of that day that truly changed me . Similar to kheir 7 minutes because it’s about evolving and changing this perfume is very dear to me due that . I have the bottle actually two whenever I miss the glimpses of that day or of those words that he told me . When I miss him or wanna remember the journey of that day like the journey the perfume and its notes . How it starts with a Caramel vanilla notes the allure of the innocence and naivety you have or are .reminds me of how when we first greeted each other and he asked for a hug . It was innocent and sweet I was naive to it all not knowing where I’m heading or what’s happening. Then slowly the flowers start showing up and mixing up and becoming more prominent throughout the wear . You’re midway through the journey like how I was with him you’re not sure still where you’re heading but you know you can’t go back. The only way is through but you’re wondering and hoping because you’re still naive but a bit more aware. Then finally it goes into a slightly antiquey vanilla with some beautiful floral notes and musky woody scent and they all blend into together the finale. You needed everything that happened to you everything that you went through all the hardships to finally evolve into the blend of everything and it’s beautiful in the end .thank you siham for creating this fragrance and allowing this beautiful scent to hold some bittersweet memories . I love this scent it’s so beautiful.

I initially expected this to be a photorealistic gourmand, sticky sweet and syrupy (Bianco Latte-esque), but was so pleasantly surprised at this being so much more wearable. This is a beautiful, elegant grown-woman vanilla. It's like a gentle seductive vanilla bean holding a few roses and violets sitting on top of a musky/woody base. You're going to smell a bit of everything but it is SO well balanced. The woodiness and muskiness adds the mature femme fatale vibe, but the vanilla is still definitely the main star of the show. I am regretting only getting the travel size, because it is definitely full bottle worthy. It's perfect for any occasion or season but this is definitely going to shine at night or as a date night fragrance. Definitely a head turner! It is so feminine and sexy!! It does perform best layered with a vanilla perfume oil (I love the Kuumba Made Vanilla Bean with this). It stands alone so well but could be paired with so many different scents and profiles easily. The vibe in general reminds me of Al Haramain Junoon Noir (or Dama Bianca) or Kayali Silk Santal without the fruity aspect in a way- light, fluffy and intoxicating vanilla. As far as actual scent profile, I'd consider this a cousin of Arabians Tonka. Not a dupe by any means but they could still be related. Less of the sugary oud, more vanilla and tonka bean!

Oh wow. This is GOOD!! This is one where I instantaneously decided that I want a full bottle. But I know better...that I need to wear it and make sure. Yes, I'm wearing it and yes, I want a full bottle. This reminds me very much of Aerin Tangier Vanille + Gentle Fluidity Gold. The vanilla in this is a decadent Tihota type of vanilla. Performance is moderate. I can deal with moderate when something smells this good. I've been on a winning streak lately with so many wins. Hope to keep that momentum going!! Edit: coming back to say that this has elements of Mercedes Benz Club Black EDT and Snif Vanilla Vice as well as Tangier Vanille and GFG. I have fallen completely in love with this perfume over the last 48 hours. Like WOW, AMAZING! Edit again 12/8/24: this thing is a BEAST, a beautiful beast at that!! Moderate, absolutely not. This is one of the strongest perfumes I own and I own a lot. I have two bottles and the difference in color between the two tells me that there is a heavy dose of vanilla in this perfume (well and the smell of thick vanilla also). The liquid in the one bottle that I've had longer has turned a shade of gold. Amazing perfume. So many compliments!!!

OK, so initially when I first got this, I hated it. I did not understand the hype. I could not get any of the sweet delectable notes that everyone was raving about. I wore it for two days straight and could only get the alcohol, wood and musk notes. I created a sample for my friend, which got rid of 6 ml. The next day I sprayed it on myself, and I swear on everything, all of a sudden it turned into a caramel milkshake heaven. I don’t know if the alcohol, wood, musk notes got sucked up into the atomizer in production because now I don’t get any of that. Is it possible that I’m nose blind to those notes, maybe. I have since taken down my original review because I am now obsessed with this perfume. I cannot stop spraying it on me and I love the way it smells. I totally get the hype now. This perfume is super beast mode, It stays on my clothes and on my skin, I can still smell it on me the next day. So, if you have gotten this, and all you could get were the original notes that I picked up on, spray, spray, spray and then spray some more, to clear out the atomizer because, I promise you, that caramel sexiness is there.

This is the best blind purchase I have ever made! You can’t go wrong with 7 Minutes. If you love caramel, vanilla, milkshake, marshmallow scents and haven’t bought a bottle of 7 minutes you’re missing out and I don’t know what you’re waiting for buy it now or you’ll regret it once it’s sold out. Vanilla has never smelt good on my skin but I know for a fact Siham has incredible taste in perfume so I knew she would create the perfect scent. 7 Minutes is something else! It smells amazing on me! I was genuinely shocked at how good it smells on my skin. I have to give credit where credit is due, Siham has created the perfect smelling perfume it’s suitable for everyone! It’s long lasting it lasts all day on me, it smells incredible, I’ve received so many compliments and I have been repeatedly asked for the name of the perfume I’m wearing. I promise, you won’t regret ordering this perfume you will love it as much as I do. I’ve ordered 3 bottles so far so that should tell you something. It’s worth every cent. It’s become my signature scent everyone knows when I’ve entered a room simply from my perfume. It’s my new go to.

This is the most delicious and fluffy feminine gourmand in my collection. The vanilla and caramel milkshake notes are definitely what stand out the most to me ! I definitely disagree with the reviews saying this is mostly heavy on the woody & musky notes, although they are there in the dry down they definitely aren’t the most prominent however they are blended beautifully making this sweet fragrance elegant and grown. I own a lot of middle eastern /oud type fragrances (mainly montale) and to me this is more of an airy fluffy fragrance rather than a heavy masculine one. It opens with the sweet caramel lactonic notes and dries down to an ambery sexy vanilla. The floral notes balance this out so smoothly and beautifully. It really does smell like heaven and very angelic but sexy. It is longlasting as an extrait should be and has great sillage. This will remain a staple in my collection. Also love the packaging 🤍

When I first got it, I wasn't impressed by it. It was decent but forgettable. So much so that I forgot about it and randomly found it in my luggage 3 months later. It must have matured/macerated during that time because WOW did it smell incredible. The smell was also a lot stronger. It's a very sexy and mature vanilla. I wished it originally arrived out of the box like this. I definitely plan to repurchase and make it a staple in my collection. My advice to you if you have this scent and either don't care for it or do not like it - put it back in its packaging and smell it after a month or so (the color should change to appear somewhat like the color of apple juice). Simply said, it's such a well-done fragrance.

This is the perfect perfume, period. It's so so delicous and sophisticated. I like gourmand scents, but do not like smelling edible, so a lot of the big popular gourmands I actually dislike. This is the most amazing ambery/vanilla/caramel scent, but somehow not foody. If you are looking for an edible scent, this won't be it. But if you're like me and have been searching for the perfect non foody vanilla scent, you will love this. I get SO many compliments when I wear this, literally strangers have stopped me to ask what i'm wearing. I have every kheir fragrance except pretty please and this is by far my favorite. Also this lasts a long time!

This does smell very good, but it only lasts an hour tops on my skin. For longevity, I spray it on my clothes and it will last all day. It’s a very nice femme fatale scent. If I had to compare it to anything I’d say it’s similar (not identical) to Arabians Tonka, just no where near as strong. I don’t regret my purchase :) Updating my review: I love this more and more each time I wear it, and the longevity on my skin has gotten better when I apply Vaseline first. My husband also loves it

From the moment you uncap 7 Minutes, you're greeted with a rich caramel vanilla blend. The fragrance smells even better on the skin. The opening gives off a sticky caramel, vanilla scent with hints of amber and musk. The vanilla is not overly overpowering; instead, it complements the caramel perfectly. I appreciate the longevity, it lasts me all day and I don’t have to touch up throughout the day. 7 Minutes is a great choice for anyone who loves a touch of sweetness with a twist.

Gorgeous vanilla, but this is more of a balsamic woody vanilla vs. a gourmand as the notes suggests. I believe that is where the negative (disappointment) is coming from because this fragrance is actually a solid piece of work. I will say, Kheir isnt reinventing the wheel here BUT they did manage to make the works of Arabian Oud Tarteel Silver and Mercedes Benz Black Club sexier and more feminine. Happy to buy a bottle once it restocks.

this is such a well done fragrance . i haven't smelled anything like it the way the fragrance evolves with time and the notes work in harmony not overplaying or anything. they all bend together and create such a beautiful perfume . it has the perfect amount of sweetness , woodinees, then a slight floral notes that ties in the fragrance perfectly. it has great projection and longevity. one of my most compliment fragrances !!

@eau_des_vanille @manda88 I made an account recently although I always was a lurker on this site to positively review the fragrance as I think it’s unfair that they few negative reviewers are ganging up here. The owner has been asking her audience to try and review on fragrantica more but it seems like people nowadays are more comfortable using chat than expressing themselves. I think the negative press is really unfair.

This smells almost EXACTLY like my signature scent, Xerjoff La Capitale. On skin, I get the Ambery, fruity, vanilla with a hint of spice. If you like LC, you need to get a sniff of this! I haven’t done a wear test yet, but I’ll update my review once I do. So far 1000/10🤗🥰 I did a full wear test and I can confirm she is beast mode and I kept getting whiffs after 12 hours of wear. I love this spicy fruity scent.

I’ve always been very picky with vanilla/gourmand perfume because most are either sickly sweet or they have 0 longevity. 7 minutes is an amazing example of a vanilla/gourmand perfume made correctly. The scent itself makes me feel like a complete princess combined with the longevity and the smell it leaves you with once it dries down is heavenly. It’s safe to say that this is my new signature scent

I bought a decant from one of my Facebook Fragrance groups and I knew from the first spray that I needed a full bottle. For context, I am a gourmand addict, the sweeter, the better. 7 minutes is completely different from what I usually like. It's soft and comforting, like a warm summer evening and you're outside wearing a sundress and eating ice cream with your beloved. I'm in love

I honestly LOVE this perfume. It's yummy and sexy, but classy and expensive. I was looking for something for the night but that can also be worn during the day when I am feeling glam. I've been looking for a perfume that I will like for a really long time and this ticked all of my boxes. Will buy again.

This smells very similar to Oud Mood by Lattafa to me? Maybe it’s the mix of sweet and woody, but honestly the dry down is almost the same? I really like this, I just got it delivered today so I can’t say much about the longevity but the silage is pretty nice :~)

I own over 850 perfumes and I’d say this is in the top 10%. It has a really special quality that’s hard to put your finger on. It’s warm and gourmand, but also still smells like perfume and not just “food”. With a little bit of sexy mystery integrated!!

Just tried for the first time, and shocked to find out this smells pretty much identical to Sapil Rave for women. To be fair, I love Sapil Rave so naturally I love the smell of this as well. But definitely not gonna spend money on Kheir in the future.

Literally my favorite fragrance ever. It's sweet, creamy, and ambery. It has a very mild toothpaste scent, but in a good way. This has me wanting to get rid of all my other fragrances so I can wear this all of the time.

I've been wearing this pretty steadily since buying in August and it's now October. I did a blind buy because I really didn't have anything like this in my (very) small collection. Compared to other perfumes I have the price point seemed reasonable and I was iffy about a lot of other Arabian perfumes. I was tired of spending money on some perfumes/ skin scents that seemed to disappear; this had the sillage and performance I wanted. I expected this to be alluring, and it was. I definitely got the caramel top notes right away and liked how it played with the sandalwood base. I'd want the top to last longer than it does, but the scent is still wonderful and would layer well with others. Otherwise, the perfume can last the next day. I can't compare it to other Arabian perfumes, but this doesn't come across as cloying or artificial. I'm happy with it. Yes to whomever said the perfume would be great for Autumn/Winter in a previous review.

7 Minutes is truly a gorgeous fragrance, it opens with a sweet gourmand mix of caramel & vanilla, but before those notes settle & take over, the beautiful floral notes come through and add depth. The violets smell candied and the rose is fresh & dewy, but subtle, just noticeable enough to add some complexity to an otherwise sweet caramel vanilla frag. As it dries down, the powdery marshmallow note comes through beside a warm amber. It lasts quite a few hours on me and I’ve been having fun layering it with other fragrances as well. If you’re looking for a beautiful fragrance that isn’t your standard caramel gourmand, 7 minutes is for you!

This is the kind of gourmand you'll wear with black eyeliner and red lipstick. It's not the juvenile over sweet caramel scent that you can smell on anyone these days. Yeah I do smell some sort of caramel milkshake, vanilla ice cream, but this has... something else. Probably the woody accords, rose. It's velvety, creamy, luminous but dark in some ways. I bought a 10ml travel size and because of the everlasting longevity of this one this is probably enough for now. Not a fan of the brand concept but the perfumer seems talented.

Caramel? Milkshake? I don't detect either of those notes even a little. My bottle is all base notes- a musky, woody, amber. Very lovely, somewhat sexy, and I will wear it, but it's not a gourmand. Perhaps after it settles for a bit I'll detect some caramel or lactonic notes? For now, Kheir's description has me thoroughly befuddled.

Caramel milkshake with a middle eastern vibe. It’s a very warm, resinous scent. Granted, it did not smell like this when I first got it. It was far more woody and musky. It’s gotten smoother the longer it’s sat. There’s a creaminess to it now. Performance is amazing. This is ideal for the fall and winter months.

Its a good sophisticated vanilla. I would say its a safe blind buy if you like vanillas. Its sweet, floral and woody but not too much, just the right amount. I would say this is more femenine, elegant, non offensive vs a goumant and super sweet . The dry down is a soft creamy vanilla.

For me, this is a summer version of Cassablanca by Swiss Arabian. I smell the same caramel&apple combo, even though 7 Minutes does not have apples listed in the notes. It is softer and more breezy than Cassablanca, with weaker projection. Inoffensive, but nothing special.

Pretty nice..vanilla with more to it..guess it’s the musk. My initial thought made me think of Kayali - Vanilla 28

A sweet, woody, vanilla that has been done before. This smells exactly like gentle fluidity gold by MFK to me.

I finally got mine in the mail to try! I was excited to try this and yes, it does smell like a milkshake. This is a very light, airy scent, I would say it smells like nougat. I personally didn't like it because I expected more straight up vanilla, but this will certainly make you smell like a snickers / twix bar milkshake. Not in an overly, fattening fructose smelling nauseous way either, it's a very airy scent and manages to stay that way the whole time. It smells like caramel and sweetness, like pulling apart a snickers and eating it with ice cream. There's a lot of emphasis on the caramel / nutty notes. I gave this to my sister who wears Black Opium from YSL, which is very very sweet in scent. She enjoys that one very much and ever since she started wearing this one she's gotten nothing but compliments. She likes it because the two scents are pretty similar (which is why I gave it to her), but this one is definitely more gourmand. It's definitely a head turner and you can't go wrong with wearing it, but I prefer my perfumes especially with vanilla to have more of a "body" or "weight" to it, I'm not sure how to explain, but it's too airy and fluffy for me. I'm very sure there are people who 100% love this though. My sister wears it as her signature perfume and it seems like you can't go wrong with wearing it everywhere! It's high quality, lasts a long time, and smells amazing.

I love Kheir Fragrance House. I really do. I have the full size bottle of 7 minutes, pretty please and slow sip. 7 minutes is THE BEST fragrance in the world! I love this perfume so much. But the longevity? The silage? I’m very very disappointed in it, in all Kheir Fragrance perfumes I have. It says ‘Extrait de parfum’. I’m sorry but it’s not an extrait de parfum. Even some of Lattafa’s fragrances are wayyy better, and lasting longer on my skin then Kheir’s 7 minutes and slow sip. I hope they will create stronger perfumes, because we’re paying for it. Lattafa or Al Absar is 6 times cheaper and last for 7-10 hours in my skin. Kheir Fragrance House: please, create stronger perfumes with a better longevity, I love 7 minutes, so I hope you’ll create a stronger version. Rating: 3*** out of 5. Because of a weak longevity.

this one is pretty difficult to put my finger on. very musky and powdery, with a hint of fruitiness? but perhaps thats the florals i'm picking up. after the dry down the notes start to blend together and you get something that's light and not super cloying. unfortunately, as someone who wears almost exclusively gourmands, i was disappointed by this. the top notes are caramel and milkshake, but i pick up NEITHER of these notes in this perfume. i feel as though this has so many things going on in it that nothing particularly stands out, but nothing "bold" enough to make you outright hate it? it reminds me of when i'm in sephora and i've tested so many fragrances that everything just starts to mix together in this weird musky, spicy, and sweet mess.

I was a little disappointed by this fragrance but I think it’s a personal problem. Everyone was saying it’s the best thing they ever smelled so I’m sure I’m a minority, but for me this was overly sweet. I think it’s because my body chemistry brings out the sweetness in things making already sweet perfumes way too nauseating. It smelled like straight up caramel sauce for me. However, I sprayed it in my room and the smell stayed for days. That could be a good thing if you like the scent. It reminds me a lot of Dama Bianca. If you like scents like that on you, you’ll likely love this. It also gave me a headache. I did see why people would like it though.

Upon the first spray... diner caramel milkshake with a woodsy background, its quite nice. But then, you wait 10-15 minutes and then the caramel takes a backseat to reveal this salty, woody smell that to me is VERY unpleasant. Gave the bottle to my mom who does not like gourmands and she really enjoys this perfume- which I think says enough. I do not smell as much of that unpleasantness on her, but it still scores pretty low on the gourmand scale. Overall a well done fragrance, but if you love a sweeter gourmand, wouldn't buy.

This perfume was disappointing for me, not because it smells bad, but because it's basic and not unique at all. It just smells flat to me, no depth and just a sweet vanilla fragrance. It does smell good but I was expecting more considering I'm a big fan of the owner Siham. She just looks like she smells luxurious but this does not reflect that at all. It's a safe blind buy for those that want a basic sweet vanilla, but if you already have a vanilla I wouldn't purchase.

Milkshake? I do not get any of that and I was hoping I did. I do get a very pretty musk, floral & woodsy mostly amber scent. I did let it sit for a couple of weeks as others suggested, but I still do NOT get any lactonic or milkshake vibe at all. Pretty and a bit sexy too tho, just not $160 worth. Make sure you test first.

Got a decant from a reputable vendor and am so confused by this perfume’s reality compared to the notes. At first it has that screechy magazine page chemical note that I get from Another 13, then it smells like an ashtray. Eventually woody vanilla comes through. It’s not bad, but it’s not as described.

I was highly disappointed by 7 Minutes by Kheir. It's not that it's a BAD perfume, per say, but it simply is not as described. This is not a gourmand, whatsoever. It is a woodsy, musky vanilla, at best. I don't mind the smell, but I never would have purchased it knowing what it smells like. It's difficult to pull the trigger on a $160 perfume that offers no samples and is only available online. But based on the listed notes and marketing imagery, I figured this would be a basic vanilla at worst. Boy, was I wrong. I almost thought maybe I had a defective bottle but after reading other reviews, I see I am not the only one with this experience. If you like a heavy musky, woody scent with a little bit of sweetness, you may like this. But do not expect any milkshake, marshmallow, or caramel. I would HIGHLY recommend ordering the 10ml before committing to the larger bottle. The positives are that the bottle and packaging it comes in are absolutely stunning. So luxe and chic. Also, the projection and longevity of 7 Minutes is BEAST mode. I still smell this on my clothes WEEKS later. So, if you like the scent, that's a plus. But if you don't like the scent... good LUCK getting it off of you! Lastly, I will say that I've had this bottle for maybe 9 months now and as it's macerated, I do smell more sweetness coming through. All in all, this isn't like a terrible perfume by any means, but it is not at all what it's described as, so make sure to order the 10ml before buying the full bottle. I would rate this a 3.5 to 4/10

caramel is by far my favorite fragrance note. bonus points when it’s with marshmallow and violet. i was soooooo excited about this. i stalked restock updates for months and knew i’d love it. spoiler alert: i don’t. i don’t get any caramel, milkshake, florals, or marshmallow. the bottom notes are overwhelming and the fragrance overall equates to a slightly sweet and pretty heavy (in my opinion) woody musk. i absolutely get the 7 minutes/silky woods comparison (like slow sip is being compared to bitter peach). i’m not a woods/musk kinda girl, and i find 7 minutes pretty unwearable so far (i didn’t personally find silky woods FBW either. cool fragrance, just not my jam). mine is new and i’ll let it sit (well, after i change out for the correct product bc i was mixed up in the december 2024 logistics hoopla and received 7 minutes travel spray rather than the 4 bottle discovery set). truly hoping it will get better with time.

is the milkshake in the room with us oorrrr...? all i get are woody, musky and powdery notes not any marshmallows or milkshake anything -_- i wouldn’t say this is unisex at all it definitely more masculine leaning (to my nose and skin at least) however it does last a really long time it’s also suuuuppper strong i accidentally sprayed it on something in my room 2 wks ago and i can still smell it! bottom line its basic af wouldn’t recommend

Immediate woodsy vibe, and one you've already smelled before (e.g., Bianco Latte, Vanilla Voyage, Lattafa Eclaire, Eilish, Nebris, etc.). This scent has been done over and over again, and frankly better by less expensive options. Glad I didn't buy an entire bottle of this -- thanks Scent Split!

The perfume smells great but the person who makes it is openly anti semitic and I can no longer support someone who refers to ISRAEL as isnotreal. The longevity is also a joke. By 30 min its gone no matter how much you spray.

On my skin, I get this weird synthetic nauseatingly sweet smell. It's like sickly-sweet rotting smell mixed with musk. I really wanted to like this one :(

Probably the most overhyped perfume ever. Convinced that everyone leaving positive reviews is so obsessed with Siham (the owner) that they just blindly buy and worship. It’s insane how this is marketed as a fluffy caramel vanilla but it smells so woody and powdery it’s insane, and not in a good way. Where’s the marshmallow? Where’s the vanilla? And why are there random floral notes in this? So mad I spent $160 just to confirm that I truly can never trust influencers’ businesses. Maybe if this was $40, sure.

I was enticed by the notes and the raving reviews. This was a huge disappointment. Where is the caramel? The milkshake? The vanilla? There is NONE of that here. This is a heavy rose frag. The rose is not even a pleasant like the rose in any of the Delinas or Penhaligons Elizabethan Rose or Duchess Rose. It is a stanky, heavy rose that blasts you at the opening and stays the whole wear. I really wanted to love this one. It's a total scrubber.

This simply cannot be the same perfume eliciting all of these amazing reviews. It’s so so so extremely powerful and musky I just cannot find what’s even good about it. And I love a good musk! But this is one of those scents that can instantly give you a headache whether you’re sensitive to them or not. Hard pass to say the least.

To those of you who are sensitive to the ambery, woody synthetic notes that seem to be in every other perfume these days, this is a hard pass - it will give you a headache for sure.
