    Okay I just got my bottle of this from a swap, and I had high hopes from the description (as it contains a few of my favourite notes), and wow, it did not disappoint. In the bottle, it's a very strong citrus-y smell to me, with a sort of vanilla-like hint behind it, and maybe just a touch of some kind of unplaceable floral. Not too strong, but confident. Definitely up my alley. Wet, it's all of that, but everything is stronger. The vanilla tone goes away, it becomes much more floral and oily citrus, starting out with a slight edge that goes away pretty fast. Honestly, though I still liked it, I wasn't sure when I first put it on, because it almost just smells like Citra-Solv, to me, which is alright, but if I wanted to smell like cleaning liquid, I'd go mop the bathroom. However, that didn't last too long. On the dry-down, the scent evens out on me, some of the amber and lighter florals move foward, and it all gets very soft and sweet and that vanilla hint comes back swinging, leaving it all very fuzzy, but not hazy, and overall just very warm and spring-like. I'm wearing it right now and have been for a bit over an hour now, and it just keeps subtly shifting. We shall have to see how long it lasts, but so far, I'm thinking this one is a keeper for me.
