Sometimes I WISH you were an ANGEL...
No, I find the Kelly Family terrible. But that fit right now. I know Wish very well (who doesn't?) and I've smelled Angel before. This fragrance strongly reminds me of both. Sweet and quite heavy and very gourmand. Simpler than Wish or Angel, less complex, but very similar. Did someone copy here? The top note is differ...

Bexhill On Sea - I'm 17 Again
When I was 17, I went on a holiday to England. A small town on the south coast, a half-hour walk along the promenade to Brighton. I was unhappily in love at the time, but it was still a lovely holiday. There was also a very nice boy there. I dyed my hair for the first time. Green and blue. We got drunk on canned Guinne...

Note: there is coconut and roasted coconut!
I have been searching for the ultimate coconut scent for quite some time. In this context, I have realized: coconut works best for me when it is gourmand and mostly on the sweeter side. I really struggle with coconut and white flowers, for example. That often smells really unpleasant to me. This is a sweet, gourmand co...

What was I thinking...
My only blind buy so far, and I really don't know what to do with it. Well. It just smells like coffee. Black, very strongly roasted coffee, sweetened with honey. I can't detect any flowers. I had hoped the coffee note would be less dominant. More honey, I had hoped. "Monotheme" and "Black Coffee," I should have seen t...

Pure Orange
Here I can really only smell orange. Well, maybe a bit of grapefruit. I don't find that unpleasant - it's tasty. Definitely something for hot summer days, for those who find Light Blue too lemony when everything else in perfume is too much. I would have preferred a more pronounced musk or vanilla note or something else...

Finally, Mr. Gaultier!
I had a highly unpleasant experience with this scent in a perfume store. I wanted to test it, but it wasn't available. The ladies working there tried to convince me that Eau d'Amour is the same scent as Gaultier2. They wouldn't be swayed by anything better. I haven't been back since. And Eau d'Amour is fortunately, man...

Whale on the Beach?
I find Voile d'Ambre great. But only for winter, it only works when it’s really, really cold. This one is significantly fresher, fruitier, as Lobelia has already mentioned. At first, it smells strongly of mandarin or other citrus fruits, with subtle spices. And a bit of amber. Shortly after, it actually becomes spicier...
