Colour Me Flowers

I never smelled Miss Dior Cherie, so my review is on Colour Me Flowers only. Interestingly the notes I'm smelling are not listed here, but they are listed at Miss Dior Cherie. The biggest and most notable note is the cherry. It is not a dark, heavy, overly ripe cherry as in La Petite Robe Noir from Guerlain. This cherry here is is more of a red and slightly unripe one. But it's still very noticeable. I can smell the mandarin and a bit of nectarine as well, which gives a little zesty and fruity spritz to the red cherry. I can smell a little bit of a fresher rose and I can smell the violet, which gives the perfume a little powdery floral note. I would say that this perfume is more fruity rather than floral. It is quite well blended, meaning that the fruity notes don't stick out like a sore thumb. I get that with some of the Avon perfumes sometimes. Some of the Avon perfumes aren't well blended and single notes punch you in the face for the whole day. But here it is well blended. The fruits and florals go well with each other. Yes, it is sweet, but thankfully due to it being well blended it doesn't irritate me. With some sweet perfumes I can get nausea and headaches. Not with this one. But if you are not a fan of very sweet and fruity fragrances then this is not for you. As this is like putting your nose into a perfumy fruit salad. I can't really smell the pralines, but I can definitely detect a bit of light musk. I can detect light, green patchouli (not the heavier one) and I would say that some of the sweetness is also coming from amber. Overall I would say that the scent profile of Colour Me Flowers fits more of the one from Miss Dior Cherie rather than it's own here. I can't sense any pralines in Colour Me Flowers and not much vanilla to be honest. It's not chocolaty nor vanilla-y to me. More of a syrupy fruit cocktail, predominantly made with cherries. I like it, but I can see that it's better to not wear too much of it as it might be annoying to some of your surroundings wearing such fruity perfume. I'd say it's medium to strong sillage, depending how much you'll wear. But it's not weak. Staying power is about moderate to long. You'll get a good couple of hours out of this. So be warned, it stays sweet for a long time. Don't overspray and you should be able to enjoy it without getting sick of it after a while.

Starts off a bit, I mean very! sweet, almost a bit too, but it mellows out fairly soon to a very lovely soft, powdery rose and violet, with some white flowers, and a delicious fruit blended beautifully with praline, vanilla and musk. Quite yummy. I like it a lot. And it lasts well, about 10 hours my skin, and longer on my clothes. It's very soft and comforting. Pretty and sweet, and fresh with the lovely citrus, rose and soft musk. Very nice. And I love the very gorgeous colour and smooth shape of the bottle.

♥️sweet, heavy on the flower and praline, bold and loud. That's the way i want my perfumes a power bomb. I don't know Miss Dior Cherie but i can imagine that this one of Milton Lloyd is much stronger than the nowadays and definitely reformulated Miss Dior. Because the crowd don't want perfumes anymore just scented bodywater. Like a woman friend once said: I like to wear perfume but i don't want to smell it. ??? Why the heck do you want to wear perfume than. Just use bodylotion or body mist instead. 🤣

Definitely not like Fire and Ice by any means. If you want something reminiscent of that divine cent French Vanilla by Dana is the way to go, the EDP version anyway. I bought this on a blind buy and it actually makes me feel sick, I don't think it's a horrible perfume but definitely not my cup of tea. If anyone wants to swap with me I will be interested.

I confidently bought a 100ml bottle of this from ebay but found it unbearably strong and sickly. I smelled it on my sleeve a few days later and it reminded me of angel
