Comments: Wow! This smells familiar and terrible at the same time. In 5 minutes, veers to wet cardboard. After 15 minutes – becomes a strongly aldehydic rose/jasmine/patchouli thing, reminiscent of a Chanel. All of the unwearable parts. After 30 minutes, becomes a chypre and more wearable, but I find it still a bit harsh. Hangs in chypre-zone with an emphasis on roses for the duration – about 6 hours. Not going to race to put this on my skin again.
Sorry about that! It didn’t work on me either, so I figured it was worth a try on you. 🙂 The top notes are probably off because it was vintage.

Since we are evil scent twins – it only makes sense 🙂
I think part of my problem with this is it is of a school of perfumery that I don’t get along with. The Chanel Aldehyde school.
I guess that’s why we do this hobby – exposure to the good and the bad and learning why that is.
