Epic Mirage

This fragrance has quickly become one of my all-time favorites. I'm surprised it doesn't have more buzz or more reviews. It's floral, sweet, and woody in all the best ways. It is not overly strong or cloying. The patchouli is virtually undetectable. The caramel stands down. The florals blend well with the gourmand elements. And the dry down is sweet & woody, like sundrenched skin on the beach.

Lovely scent was concerned with the bubblegum in the scent, but I didn't really get it. This is such a sleeper, I'm surprised more people aren't talking more about this. Its sweet without giving you a toothache from the sweetness and dries down beautifully. So glad I got this and at the bargain price. Definitely my spring go to fragrance this season.

This is the superior clone for VCRS unlike confection you actually smell the bubblegum the marshmallow those complex notes are missing in Paris corners version no offense. This is also a very strong alternative. Meaning the longevity on this is insane for the price. This has become my favorite of the DNA.

here’s what my nose picks up, sprayed on a test strip - starts out very sweet, bubblegum-y, more sugar than marshmallow. there’s notable freshness from the pear. the bubblegum is maintained, as well as the pear. there are just very subtle hints of the florals that keep this from being a straight candy shop. the patchouli is not noticeable enough here to comment on. it’s a fresh sweet. pretty inoffensive. i’m sure it could be oversprayed, but this one doesn’t become cloying in the air. of the ‘smells like’ examples listed above, i added a vote for VCRS.

This starts very fruity pear, incredibly like JPG La Belle. It’s strong, long lasting and simple... but the dry down is straight up talcum powder!!! Like choking, in your face, baby powder that ruins it for me. I sprayed a cushion and at first loved the waft of pear, but then I couldn’t bear to have it near me and put it straight in the wash.
