Valentina Assoluto

If anyone wants to experience a great example of a blooming chypre then try Assoluto. Its layers are very pronounced and is almost like having two fragrances in one bottle. I get compliments from people who know perfume when I wear this (tons of compliments, and guys seem to love it on me too- in fact more people ask what I'm wearing when I wear this over any of my other perfumes in my expansive collection of fragrances) It starts off with a rather sweet fruity peach blast and after a few seconds I notice the truffle (I love the truffle). Then it moves to truffle and tuberose which reminds me a lot of Black Orchid EDT. Then that morphs again and I catch a whiff of something that reminds me of Lolita Lempicka (although I'm not sure how or why because the notes aren't the same) and settles into an earthy and kind of powdery base where I smell the truffle again.. The intensity of it also morphs, at first it's overwhelming and I think to myself that I should always spray and leap into this one. Once it dries down it settles and becomes softer, sort of a earthy truffle vanilla tuberose with a hint of fruit and the trail is mostly earthy truffle with a hint of the dry notes. Because it starts so intense I don't want to spray too much but the trail gets soft enough that I wish I applied more so I'm conflicted about the appropriate spray amount with this one, I think a purse spray is in order because I don't I want to overload before work. Some people used to powerhouse fragrances probably won't find that to be a dilemma. This is a very interesting, complex and beautiful fragrance and a very happy blind buy, I'm not sure why I haven't heard of it until now. I love it!

Update: I love this glamorous fragrance more and more each time I wear it/bond with it. The smell is really quite addicting! When you first spray it on.. it smells "nice" but the longer you wear it, the deeper the scent becomes and the more you will shine. I used to prefer the original Valentina to this, but I think I have changed my mind... but I'll start with this: The Opening: To me, it smells like a mixture of sweet tarts, ripened peaches, and a slight hint of champagne. Hmm... not sure if anyone else has had this experience, or it's just my nose. It can be quite "sweet" but unusual to put it simply. The Heart: Beautiful smooth jasmine and tuberose, surprisingly creamy with just a hint of vanilla. This isn't a sweet baking vanilla - it's very refined and used in small doses. This is when it begins to shine most. The Base: The scent trail of this fragrance is incredible. The jasmine/tuberose is quite toned down at this point, and it appears to have a strange calming effect on me. The patchouli and oak moss wrap this up quite delicately. It's delightful, sophisticated, and well balanced. I highly recommend trying this one directly on your skin and not spraying it on a tester card. Why? It's one of those that just doesn't settle right on paper. On the skin it blooms and heats up and meshes with your own skin chemistry. I love this gorgeous earthy floral! PS: This scent lasts for DAYS on clothes! I literally sprayed my pull over with this beauty and I can still get whiffs of it 2-3 days after! Scent: 8.5/10 Longevity: A good 6 hours Sillage: Soft - moderate (depending)

This perfume is like a smoky quartz for me -there's something subtly dark, deep, a bit mysterious about it. I could describe as a light, earthy chypre with a gourmand twist. The sun present in the regular Valentina has gone, there's the silence before the storm, the flowers and the plants smell more intense, the air is damp, the earth starts breathing. Kind of shadow lingering in the air, kind of suspense. The rain is coming. Or maybe it's the solar eclipse... The opening is a fresh, green citrus whirl which quickly melts with a mixture of sweet, earthy tuber and white flower scent. I guess the tuber is responsible for that lovely earthy aroma. The patchouli is light, but it underlines the elegance of this fragrance and together with the wood notes creates that smoky vibe and adds a decent lasting power. For me this is a more serious, more elegant version of the regular Valentina. If Valentina is a silk scarf floating in the wind, this is a dark velvet cape for a mysterious lady.

Extraordinary fragrance, perfect for a signature scent, it certainly makes a statement! But..... This isn't something i'm always in the mood for, it's quite different than what I expected! Kind of an acquired taste. This was a blind buy. (If you are looking for a tooth-achingly sweet, gourmand fragrance, this is NOT it..) Rather, it's earthy and quite rich. It opens with a burst of alcohol mixed with peaches.. I'd describe it like a "peachy champange". The initial burst of alcohol winds down fortunately, and then the jasmine and tuberose take center stage, along with the peach. The peach isn't sweet or fruity, rather, somewhat bitter (mixed with the tuber, perhaps?) The vanilla soon creeps in, softening the fragrance, while adding a bit of warmth. This scent is not "foody", not in the least bit. Now on to the base notes... I get the patchoulli, and a VERY subtle hint of the oakmoss. It's subtly spicy - addicting. This scent lasts a full 5 hours on my skin.~ <3

Recieved a sample of this and I was very curious since I've read all the good reviews about assoluto. Its really a different scent, its complex and it has very distinguish phases... At first I can smell the fruitness (like real fresh fruit) mixed with some kind of earthy cold truffle and it smells just divine and very different. After about a half hour the florals come to play but it still earthy, it seen that the truffle notes play around for quite a bit but saddly this lasts just for a couple hours before the dry down that its pure pachouli on my skin and very close to skin. I really enjoyed the fragrance, the only problem its the lasting power, only 4 hours of pure amazingness and then its gone!!! Sillage its moderate more on the soft side. I really want a full bottle but not sure if I want to pay the price for something that dont last at all....

After a long, hard, tedious search for an updated signature fragrance, I finally found mine - Valentina Assoluto by Valentino. Upon first try, I knew my search was over. I loved it from the start. It melts perfectly into my skin to become one with me. I don't know if it is the fact that the ingredients are mainly from Italy and I have Italian skin; or, if I was just lucky to have stumbled upon a fragrance that works for me. In any regard, I can't get enough of it. The fragrance starts off floral, but then dries down to a sexy, yet lady-like aroma (not sure if it is the tuberose?). That's the whole thing. I can't separate the scents, although I know what is in it. It is too complex. One ingredient cannot exist without the other. They rely on each other to complete itself. A purely feminine, subty seductive scent made for a woman. It has possessed me.

Charming and Cute Chypre! This is reminiscent of Panthere EDP, to me, except it’s infused with FUN! (Not a knock on Panthere.) The peach here is so darn juicy and light-hearted! I love that the truffle note presents itself as earthy, like perfumed potting soil. I find this truffle to be less literal than Black Orchid’s interpretation, which I find to be a more realistic mushroom-y. This is fun, happy and modern take on a fruity chypre. It’s simultaneously sophisticated and flirty. I think all ages could get into this. It’s great for veteran chypre lovers as well as those who are just beginning their journey. I love it, and I need a FB immediately! —— Note: This has been long discontinued, but I got my decant from Perfumed Court. I do recommend that option, given the limitations.

This is a beautiful fragrance, but the thing is for me it skips the top notes in a heartbeat and starts to radiate that captivatingly indolic jasmine and fresh tuberose along with that creamy vanilla with just a lilt of oakmoss and vetiver. It's a kind woman's perfume but she's the type of gyal that is a supermodel at heart. The bottle is a work of art, so chic....like that insociant lady wearing that darned hat, or sporting the perfect lipstick, nonchalantly. Most lovely, I must say it does capture Kim Kardashian's "True Reflection" a tiny bit, but in that fume the patchouli is very sweet and fruity with a louder sillage. I've already found at least 3 of my signatures (this isn't one of them) and as I take the olfactory adventure through perfumeland, I took note of "Valentina"

....you got me at truffle, peach, tuberose, jasmine, patchouli, oakmoss.. yes you had me at the whole composition basically. The bottle is a piece of art in itself, the presentation and the scent are a nod to the retro and yet are so modern. The opening is juicy and fruity, with some dark earthiness, then a very powerful tuberose emerges, dipped into vanilla. Truffle's darkness being all the present. The dry down is my favourite part. There are still the floral when you get the dark forest, soil sort of scent. Enchanted forest with tuberoses and vanilla pods growing in it. All wrapped up in gorgeous oakmoss and patchouli. A must have for chypre lovers who want a modern one, oakmoss tuberose and truffle lovers as these are the top performers. I love it all about Assoluto.

J’aime beaucoup celui-ci, pour moi, il est dans la même veine que Panthère de cartier. La tenue est bonne sur les vêtements, ce n’est pas un monstre de sillage mais il est tout de même présent. Comme Valentina, Valentina assoluto est un classique intemporel, facile à porter, super chic, vraiment un parfum classe et simple. C’est doux, terreux légèrement sucré et présent sans étouffer l’entourage. Je ne suis pas très douée pour identifier les notes, mais il me semble bien sentir la truffe - tubéreuse et mousse de chêne. Bref, je pense qu’il ferait très bien l’affaire pour une réunion, lors d’une soirée mondaine ou encore d’un souper chic entre amis! :)

It's the truffle that makes this perfume truly unique and beautiful. I've had VA for a couple of years and brought it out yesterday after not wearing it for a long time. It's hot here - almost 100 degrees - and VA worked perfectly. There's a moodiness to it...a dusty quality as others have mentioned. This is balanced by the tuberose, which is less sweet in this formula than in many others. Jasmine and patchouli emerge in the base notes and vanilla grounds all the notes and keeps it from being dowdy. This morning, I am wearing a cami from last night and keep getting whiffs of Valentina Assoluto. If you haven't tried this beauty, I highly recommend it.

Such a beautiful, warm scent. I imagine wearing this on cooler days wrapped up in a warm fuzzy sweater or blanket. It exudes comfort and it smells like how I want to smell. It is not a heavy fragrance, but it is rich. I LOVE that it has this without invading the air and being completely obnoxious. I like to keep my sillage to myself! It starts out reminiscent of Nina by Nina Ricci but then warms up into a creamy yet fresh melange of aromas that blend so succinctly together that one could mistake it for simplicity instead of a very well crafted and balanced blend of elements. I can't wait to add a bottle to my collection!

Valentina Assoluto - The opening is beautiful, the middle captivates, and the ending is enchanting. Very elegant and I find it to be suitable for any occasion, it just melts into the skin. From the bottle and design one would almost expect this to have rose notes but it does not. I agree with Nexangelus in that the opening reflects the scent of peach wine. I can pick up all of the listed notes and they are all heavenly and what I enjoy the most about this beautiful blend is that it develops slowly and that each note play nicely with each other. For me this fragrance has amazing longevity 8+ hours with moderate sillage.

I had no expectation on a Valentino perfume... Is he in the perfume industry at all? I tried the Valentina Acqua Floreale (a big hit according to this blog) and it was a no-no. After that I went to the Valentina, which was definetively better but too soft. So just before leaving the Valentino zone I gave Assoluto a try... And it was BAM! Not as much for the first notes, which I actually dont like too much, but for the middle notes that carry me somewhere between the Sun and the Moon. I purchased it and I'm quite happy with it, dont think I'll re purchase but that's the norm in me.

Fell in love after testing this today. It's been on my list of wants for a while, but that was really just based on the reviews and description. Now that I've me her in person... it's full blown love! Others have done a great job of describing the scent, so I won't bother adding to what's already been said. However, I do have to add that upon first sniff it rang of womanly sophistication, class and confidence. It's a bit difficult to explain, but this is definitely a woman's fragrance. A mature (don't read that as old), confident, sophisticated woman. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

I have a bottle of this manufactured in May 2012, i just started using this and i love most things about it from the starting to the end. Its only the after drydown where the tuberose and orange blossom got quite intensive before it softens to blend with the vanilla, really really enjoy this part, smelling the mixture of both flowers and smooth creaminess. I sprayed it on both my clothing and arms and at the end of the day, my clothing was left with the patchouli base note while my arms got the cedar. 6 hours of heavy-moderate-soft sillage. Longevity moderate.

Almost too beautiful for words. I want to swim in this so that every fiber of my being exudes this luscious scent! I feel I can't inhale deeply enough to be satisfied with the amount filling my sinuses...yes, it's THAT good! The further I breathe it in the more layers I discover. So interesting, complex, and not for an instant boring. This is elegant. Embarassing to say (lol) but I feel I may need to get more of a life so I can have formal affairs and gala events worthy of such a fragrance!

What a masterfully blended potion. No other scent balanced white floral, fruit and earthiness with such steady silliage without being heady nor sickly. The layers compliment each other as they emerge and build into something beautiful that's perfect for day, night, winter, summer. This is the ideal signature scent (for an interesting, discerning woman) and I miss it so... I have never worn this without everyone leaning in, gushing and asking which fragrance I am wearing. Love

Assoluto. Perfume of goddeses. This is absolute gold. Will not be without. Sparkling. Sensuous. Golden. Fresh. My skin has the prickling scent of youthfulness and dewiness whenever my beloved Assoluto is present. it radiates beautifully off my skin and is a compliment magnet. It has a creaminess to the drydown too which is so lovely. Another fragrantican likened it to peach champagne and I get the comparison. This lasts all day for me and softens beautifully. One word. Love.

Blind bought this at Marshall's and on my goodness! I am in love! I have Valentina and it is one of my favorites but this one blows that right out of the water! On me it opens with a sweet fruity vanilla scent and then deepens with a nice tuberose. After a couple of hours I get the patchouli and its a nice smooth patchouli. To me this smells very sultry and sweet and just delicious. I have to add this to the list of scents that make me want to devour my arm....

Finally a very Good Flanker! Very elegant Chypre with a Tuberose x Jasmin Touch that makes this scent refined, but thanks to the Vanille, casual too. For me a day/evening fancy scent, that will make you feel elegant, but very urban and modern too. Far away to be Vintage, Valentina Assoluto is a very Update scent, and it was inspiried in Rome, reflecting its tradition and cosmopolitan Spirit. I tested today, and I will purchase it for sure. Beautiful!

I've had this since it's release. It's a BEAUTIFUL scent. Unique, scratches that peach vanilla amber itch I seem to be addicted to. But while most seem to deepen over time, the notes getting richer & more intense, this doesn't. It's still beautiful, and I've gotten compliments from other women with it so I know it does last. It's a "your skin but better" type of projection. I love the familiar chord of these notes done in the dark, floral amber.

this one is mature, deeper, richer & warmer vibe. very bright citrus in the opening with peach and tuber too. the heart notes are jasmine and vanilla. sweet and flowery but not too much. then after an hour, patchouli and oakmoss are covering over the juice to make it earthy, warmy, sensual, creamy. (surprisingly, after an hour it close to Miss Dior Le Parfum)

Love it. Great winter scent day or night. I wear it for me and I wear it for others. I put this on after a night time shower just to go to bed. It smells cozy and semisweet. It is not overpowering as some "assolutes" can be. It stays pretty true to itself in the dry down with a bit more darkness coming though than in the open, but that's not bad.

Absolutely gorgeous, a soft floral vanilla with fruit, sophisticated and charming, very very feminine. It doesn't last very long on my skin, 3-4 hours tops, but in that time it's a cloud of a dreamy fruity garden mingling with the depth of tuber and the resinous vanilla. Normally I dislike vanilla, but this one's a dream.

This is a perfect vanilla scent to me! So soft and comforting, creamy and very feminine. It makes me happy when I wear it! I can smell a little of tuberose, which just lingers around my neck. The scent is clean and sexy at the same time. The bottle is so pretty and the lotion matches so well with the perfect scent.

A modern, easy to wear chypre, not too sweet in the opening with friendly floral notes in the centre (the tuberose is lovely) and subtle woody drydown. The tuber note throughout is what gives VA it's sparkle. To best appreciate it's earthy fabulousness wear this on a hot dry day.

This is one of the best I've ever smelled. I love it. I know everybody around me does, because I get a lot of compliments about it. It is amazingly feminine, sophisticated. It is a positive, scent, with optimism. Also the bottle is pretty, it is so beautiful in it's simplicity.

It is a beautiful very feminine perfume for the first hour.... Afterwards nothing remains of this beaut, no longevity at all, have to spray constantly what a dissapointment :-( If only it had more body and sillage, could have been in my top favourite ones

Absolutely beautiful! Creamy, sensual, rich and quite original. One of the sexiest perfumes that I know. But definitely not for everyone, not as likable and popular as regular Valentina. Which is a great plus in my opinion. Surely the best of Valentinas.

I'm obsessed with this. It is sweet, yes. But I really do love it. It is of the genre of Flowerbomb, Elie Saab and Lancomb's La vie est belle. So, if you are cool w/ those, you'll be cool with this. I love the bottle. It looks great on my dresser.

I bought this perfume after trying many, and I can say that this is my favorite for decent evenings when I want to be attractive and sexy. My boyfriend cannot help smelling me all the time when I am wearing this perfume. This is a very sexy one!

It was years ago my signature scent. Unfortunately it is sold out in Turkey. You can find it only by small retailers. I love love love it. This is a sophisticated, sexy, feminin perfume. I got my back bottle. It is my gem in my collection.

Pure elegance. This is a creamy bouquet. A fancy NIGHT out perfume. A sophisticated woman. A royal scent. A serious perfume. Smooth , long lasting , humble.

The positive reviews cover it, just came here to say that wearing this with Cartier La Panthere will actually turn you into goddess...

the patchouli note makes a sexy difference. love it

I have it and I really really love it! :)

I tested Valentino valentina assoluto two or three years ago.I remember to hate it with all my heart I'm allergic to mushrooms and I hate tuber in perfumes.it usually covers all the other notes and can make me feel ill for the whole day.back then I also disliked patchouli,peach,tuberose and jasmine so no wonder I hated this one Lately I received a free sample of valentina assoluto.retrying it was exciting for me.it's really interesting to see such a dramatic change in my taste,now I see(actually smell!) this perfume totally different What a well blended perfume!I can see almost all the listed notes in it and each of them are the notes which usually overpower other notes,this could be a fight between emperors but strangely they're in peace!it's as if they're melted in each other It's pretty linear on me and not too much earthy to dislike.it's very creamy and has a non-gourmand,refined delicious vibe which is intoxicating.it's rich,sophisticated and sensous.I can feel tuber in it but not as the strongest note.it doesn't bother me,on the contrary,it's exactly what gives this a unique undertone.peachy tuberose,almost like gardenia,jasmine and vanilla are the main players on my skin while there's just a hint of patchouli and moss to give it a whisper of chypre undertone and make it more intresting than a plain white floral I can't say I love it or that I can't wait to buy a bottle,not yet but I'm impressed and have to change my dislike to like.it's a very good feminine perfume,a recommendable one and I suggest that you try it even if you don't like it's notes.I agree that it's better suited for fall but for me It's wearable year round(not in hot days).I tried it on a spring night and it wasn't out of place.most men seem to find it charming and sensual and I like perfumes which are sexy in a classy way.it's not heavy on me,not a soft one either One day I may have it as a part of my collection.this seemed to be a crazy idea not long ago:)

Tested the past two days and I really like this. Normally, I don't like vanilla heavy or patchouli heavy scents, so I wasn't sure how much this would appeal to me. I do enjoy tuberose and peach, and I like a good woody base so I gave it a shot. In this, the sweetness of the truffle is really very nice. I really don't smell vanilla very much at all, I'm sure it's there, but it's soft just like the description says. Same with the patch. Just enough to give it some punch, but it's sort of quiet if that makes sense, giving little peeks of itself. What I like about the florals in this is they seem to give it a clean, fresh feel, especially in the dry down. Not getting cedar? I haven't worn it around anyone long enough to form an opinion on the sillage, but I can smell it on myself as I move around for about two hours. After that, it's become closer to the skin, and I love sniffing my wrist and inner elbow! 😊 It's a great addition to my collection, different from any of the other fragrances I own. Elegant smelling as others mention. I would definitely wear this somewhere special when I get all glammed up with hair and lashes and the seldom worn high-heel! On a date for sure. Strong like on its way to becoming a love!

Very close to Valentina EDP with its blend of soft vanilla, slightly sultry white florals, earthy truffles and unlisted musk. I expected this to be a warmer and more concentrated version, like most "absolute" flankers are, but that's not quite what I get here. To me this is a lusher (as in less dry and less powdery) take on Valentina. Maybe a bit darker, too, but not that much more intense. I feel it's more musky and I really get the added patchouli. Assoluto reminds me a little bit of the Narciso Rodriguez For Her line, which I'm usually not a big fan of, but the similarities are so subtle that I don't mind. To my nose Valentina Assoluto is basically a bottle of Valentina with a healthy dose of humid, but clean patchouli, a drop of NR musk and a shot of white peach juice. This is good, but I still prefer the original which I absolutely love. These two are close enough that you don't need both, except if you really want to collect all Valentinas. To me other flankers like Myrrh Assoluto and Poudre are more exciting, as they give more of a twist to the Valentina DNA.

It is well-blended to the point that it is hard to describe the opening. I feel strawberries, which are in Valentina, but not in Assoluto. I feel bubblegummy tuberose, pralines, jasmin and vanilla. Everything keeps me guessing. It does not differ all that much from Valentina and yet they are different enough to make it worth owning both. I think Assoluto has more jasmin, tuberose and vanilla. It remains gourmand mainly, not a white flower scent. They just keep swirling around vanilla-truffle accord. It might be more for the evening. I do not feel too comfortable in it during 32 degrees Celsius daytime, but it's beautiful. The heart is very similar to Valentina, just more intense. This is the last time I am pulling it out summer day :) Paradoxally I cannot sense it on me 1h after application - weird cause I feel Valentina and its Florale version for +12hours constantly.

Valentina is one of the weirdest designer fragrances I have encountered. I described the original as being "ugly-pretty like Coco Rocha in the best way" and there's a lot of the original to be found in the Assoluto flanker. What is gone is the fruitiness and freshness, the tuberose has been amped up instead. A clean patchouli peeks through as well, along with the oldtimey elegance of oakmoss. The result is deeper, more sensual, slinky evening gown material. There are many types of tuber, I guess. I cannot stand it in Black Orchid, it makes me dry heave. In this, the tuber note is fantastic and it adds an intangible character that is very unique. A spray of this to the décolletage could prove extremely enticing. It has that kind of magnetic pull. It's the type of scent that will make people go "what IS that?" in an approving way.

A pretty scent in a pretty bottle. This is a sensual, seductive and elegant evening perfume for a woman, and I mean a woman, not a girl. It makes me think of a long black dress and a glass of wine. Compared to the original I find it less sweet, a bit "darker", more for special occasions IMO. I see some wrote they find it cozy and wear it when they go to sleep. To me it is definitely for a night out, and it's quite expensive so I wouldn't use it every day anyhow... I don't like very "perfume-y" fragrances. This one is somehow elegant and classy without being heady. It is light and wearable enough for my taste.

I enjoyed this the first time I owned it - and I'm happy to have it back in my collection as a bottle! The note I made here when I was testing it just said "Dark laundry" - and to be honest, that's still the impression that I get! Once this scent mellows down into something a little more cozy and earthy vs. the very 'artificial perfumed' opening - the main thing that comes to mind is "a bit of jasmine, and a load of warmed laundry" But with a dark, sleek, almost sinister nighttime feel. Take that as you will, but I think this is a unique spin on a people-pleaser designer scent!

This is such an elegant chypre floral creation. It contains some of my favorite notes: tuberose, vanilla, patchouli, and oak moss. I mean does it get any better than that? This is truly such a ladylike perfume, it exudes confidence and a sense of independence, while still being super feminine. The oak moss in this is subtle in a way that keeps it soft and feminine. If you love oak moss the way I do, and want a fragrance that is similar in its feminine appeal try Cartier's La Panthere as this Valentina Assolutp and the Cartier are my top 2 favorite floral chypre fragrances.

The opening, during the first hour, this composition features a fizzy tuber with vanilla and patch. I can't isolate the peach but it's there. I pick up an amber accord, and it really is an odd mix. I find this first phase hard to describe, but it's well blended and fun. Then around 60 minutes it turns into a typical white floral. It's not bad, just not very interesting. The polar opposite of the first half. Then within 2 hours it's gone. But my skin tends to absorb scent so it's more me than any perfume. I like it but wish the first phase lasted longer.

Out of all the perfumes I tried so far, I believe Valentina Assoluto might be the most inoffensive and mass pleasing, yet still managing to be very unique. It's deep, but also smooth and creamy at the same time. There's something about it which makes it feel edible, but it's very subtle and it keeps the fragrance from falling flat. In the dry down it becomes a skin scent and the yummyness starts fading, but I wouldn't mind reapplying, because the previous phases are so beautiful and unique.

Valentina assoluto is not very simmilar to the original valentina in my skin,altough both are soft.. Doesn ́t last long and doesn ́t leave a trail when you walk either,see,this is the kind of the perfume I think buying,it ́s a waste of money!! And this one it ́s quite expensive!! But it ́s nice,I can detect most jasmine,and vanilla and a bit of peach.. Smells nice,like I said not enough for me to buy,bottle looks cute too,altough the valentina itself is prettier :)

So truffley and peachy, I really like it! It's earthy but feminine because of the perfect combination of fruit and vanilla. At first it's a little weird, I almost get a Vicks Vapor Rub note at the beginning, but the drydown is really nice. You know, it slightly smells like dirty panties...I don't mind :p Keeps things interesting! It's like a sourish dirty panty note overlaid by clean earthiness and sweetness. How intriguing...
