I can't even begin to explain this blend. I do like it an awful lot though. I got this as a gift from a friend. It is my first try of BPAL oils. I have worn this for three days straight and my review kind of shows that. It seems to be different every day that I wear it.
In the bottle I find it to be very, very sharp. In fact if I was basing this scent totally on the smell from the bottle I would be tucking it away somewhere. Out of sight, out of mind. I think that is the cinnamon. But maybe I am only picking cinnnamon because others have mentioned it. Other sniffs have made me think more of pepper than of cinnamon. Then another time it smelled like Mentholatum.
When I first put it on it is still pretty strong. Then once it has been on for awhile it softenes and becomes a very, very nice scent. On me the scent seems to be gone after about 30 minutes. Then after awhile it appears to be back. It mellows out and becomes very soft and pleasant. I want to say almost floral, but not really. Almost powder, but not really. Hard to describe. And it changes every time I wear it.
I really like this scent and I like how it makes me feel. It seems to relax me a lot.
Sorry my first review wasn't very good, hopefully I will get better, but this is a very strange mixture to try to review anyway. But I'm lovin' it!
