Kind Intentions

WOW I didn't expect to love this as much as I thought I would upon first spray but it has grown so much in a matter of 20 minutes. I also layered it with my br540 and let me tell you my mind is exploding. I love this scent trail, profile, everything. It's giving 5 star resort . It smells nostalgic but not old. Musky but not dusty. Fresh but not like hand sanitizer. It's buzzy and fuzzy but oh so crisp. It's really polarizing and it's an instant love. Instant appreciation. Perfumery is an art and while I have my easy dumb reaches, this is going to be used when I want to feel happy and carefree like when I was a young child with not a care in the world. I could really talk about it so much more. Paulina did a wonderful job and chose a spectacular note pyramid. The perfumer who executed the idea did a fire job. There's also this really nice earthy, woody, petrichor type of scent. Like, when it just finished raining and the earth smells so intimate.. it's really truly grounding for me... I also love the frankinscence in here as well. It's really oily so that tells me it's a really strong and potent juice. Becareful where you spray it maybe? I wear mostly black so I'm without issue there.

To be honest, when Paulina originally announced this collaboration and the notes of this fragrance... I wasn't really interested. The scent profile and notes didn't sound like a fragrance that I'd really enjoy. But I was curious.. so I bought a decant. And let me just tell you - I was blown away. This scent is BEAUTIFUL! And it's unique. It's definitely a marine scent with a strong citrus (mandarin) note in the opening. The seaweed is definitely there giving the sweet and juicy mandarin some 'saltiness' and greenery. It's so refreshing. Once it starts drying down I do get some white florals. But they're not in your face. They just round out the scent very nicely. And the dry down... I totally agree with the review below saying it smells like marine cotton candy. A sweet and salty marine cotton candy. I ordered a bottle so fast! This is one I will wear all year round, day and night. Signature scent worthy imo. I also love the color of the bottle. It fits the scent perfectly!

It'll honestly be a travesty if this fragrance doesn't pick up trajectory (or perhaps not, as many people don't want to smell like everyone else) It is a very unique scent I do see how people could get Baccarat Rouge in the drydown however, the road there is full of so many delightful twists and turns I would genuinely prefer this to BR540. Navitus parfums has REALLY been on a roll. As another reviewer described you do get seaweed which is quite interesting, oceanic, but there is that Ultra sweet candy floss/cotton candy and finally the BR540. I give it 8/10 NOT a blind buy, but I enjoyed after a decant and can see myself enjoying even more as the fragrance macerates.

This is my new obsession. Thank you Paulina and Jerome. You made something truly new on the market. Yes, it has a baccarat vibe, but only a little and not even all the time during a wearing. It’s a strong projecting and long lasting composition that changes throughout the day. Not sure how it’ll smell in 2-3 months, Navitus is always maturing. But now it’s amazing. Love the moss note in it, it almost smells like lemon to me. And the opening is gorgeous. A true mandarin or even a clementine while you peel it. The drydown is salty amber on me, and it reminds me the drydown of Raised Spirits, but not the same. Everybody I know who smelled it was impressed

Coming back to proclaim my love for this fragrance again. I can't seem to put it down! I'll reach for this one at least 3x a week. Which is saying a lot, considering I have almost 200 fragrances to choose from. And for the mentions of similarities to BR540.. I do not get that at all. I have both fragrances and they smell nothing alike to me. But I also don't think Burberry Her smells anything like BR540 either. The airiness quality is totally different here (to me) than Baccarat (one of my signature scents). But if you're unsure, always sample first. Buy a decant from a decant site or from a decanter in the Facebook fragrance groups.
