Zen Secret Bloom

This is a statement maker. And that statement says, "I'm here to kick a** and take names with one bat of my smokey-eye outlined lashes!" Sexy, alluring, sophisticated, bold, chic, rich, elegant...I could go on and on. Edible and yummy in a non-gourmand way, if you know what I'm sayin'. I do get a subtle men's cologne/aftershave vibe, but as a whole the scent is still very feminine. Somewhat similar to Coco Chanel EDT, but not as patchy and in your face. Even my 4 (almost 5) year old son keeps saying, "Mmmm, Momma, you smell delicious!" Trust me, my boy has got a good nose on him. Longevity - 8+ hours. Lily2911, thank you again for picking yet another new favorite for me.

For me Zen Secret Bloom is a quiet hidden garden at night. Moonlight, dark shadows and beautiful flowers. It's mysterius, yet comforting. Unique and familiar at the same time, like a dream. Black vanilla, patchouli, jasmin and incence are all very much present here. When jasmin and incence slowly disappear it dries down to patchouli-based vanillaish blanket which reminds me a lot of Flowerbomb Extremes drydown.

I don't know why so many people think that Secret Bloom smells similar to the original Zen. To my nose, they are very different. Zen is citrusy, floral and sort of plain, whereas Secret Bloom is balmy, creamy, special and very fifferent from anything that I have smelled before. Scret Bloom is definately on my future purchase list.

I am Zen addicted. I have Zen, Zen Secret bloom, Zen Moon Essence. The only and the one is Zen, the classical. When the weather turns to hot, I start to wear Secret Bloom, which I feel more "creamy" (I guess because of Tonka beans) or Moon Essence, which is more fruity compared to classical Zen. Anyway I love all!

WOW Very balsamic, deep, sexy and warm! Love it! I tried it thinking it would be something that smelles much like the original zen ( which is a little boring in my opinion ) and found a very sophisticated balsamic perfume for the cold days of winter! This one is recomended! it's everything but boring!!
