Dialogue With Venus

I absolutely love this fragrance. Sticky sweet vanilla is usually not my thing at all, but I work in niche fragrance and actually bought a full bottle of this. The combination of components here creates this truly playful and almost silly elixir. It's immensely feminine, but not in a way that feels at all soft or demure- it's big campy femininity. This fragrance does not take itself too seriously at all; we're treated to something joyful, reveling in its sexuality and power. It feels reminiscent of more juvenile fruity vanilla formulas, but its too self aware for that. Don't mistake what may at first appear frivolous and unsophisticated for a lack of confidence, intelligence, and purpose! In regards to the notes: I'm not sure how anyone doesn't smell the salt. The combination of salt, musk, and sandalwood here create an intoxicating sweaty skin feel- and with that carefree smooth vanilla & peach on top we just get something so rapturous and fun. Ylang ylang adds an optimistic and uplifting flare to the composition. I'm wearing this a lot now in February cold; it *might* be too much in the warm weather, but I'm looking forward to finding out.

Ethereal fruity salty vanilla. Ylang ylang, peach, sandalwood, vanilla and sea salt. The name aptly suits it. Venus, the goddess of love and war. Forlorn but playful. Desired and feared. A cool late afternoon or early evening on the seashore full of driftwood. A woman wearing white who has freshly showered with sandalwood vanilla soap, eating a peach, waiting for her lover to arrive on shore, but he never does... every day, without fail, she stands on the shore and stares into the distance, with her half eaten peach in hand. The seashore is somewhere in the west, on the Atlantic. This isn’t a tropical pacific shore, but a melancholic forlorn Atlantic shore, full of big waves and overcast. This performs beautifully on a warm breezy day. The underlying notes do smell quite similar to Burberry woman and other similar peachy sandalwood perfumes, but this is airy, salty, and heavier in vanilla. On a cold evening the sandalwood became more prominent, when worn on a warmer breezy day it became fruitier and airier. I’m quite enjoying this, the scent bubble it creates is lovely. I can see this growing into a love very soon.

this house is blowing me away... seriously so good, so many of them this one is a sexy summery ylang-ylang with vanilla coconut and salty sea water nothing sub screeny about it though, it's weirdly fresh this is also the first ylang-ylang frangrance that doesn't induce a headache for me and that I would wish a full bottle of I agree that longevity is not the forte of this house, and actually a lot of scents are really understated or initmate, haven't tried any beast mode one but for me that is not an issue, more often than not I'd rather refresh my perfume than start getting tired of it throughout the day

You bought fresh full-fat milk from a farmer. Went to a friend's house and boiled it. You let it cool down. Your friend suggests you add some vanilla pods and a spoon of sugar to the milk and drink it. His grandmama used to do that. You try the milk, it's boring. You see an over ripped peach on the counter. You take the peach in your hand and start squeezing...the juice is running through your fingers and dripping into the milk. you give it a stir. While sipping the light milkshake you smell whiffs of ylang ylang from the back garden. Gourmandish...sweet...lactonic...creamy...femminine...sexy.

Wow wow I am starting to really love this line Tonkabodykon was great & this one is a light airy vanilla perfect for summer. I need a FB. Incredible! I’m on a quest for a nice light vanilla this fits the bill I believe! The peach, musk ,& seas spray are subtle & don’t overtake the blend. I have a problem lately w blends w about 20 notes in there. This is great just simple summery vanilla.
