A hypnotic summer reverie: gilded vanilla and coconut milk in a swirl of tuberose, wild jasmine,
almond blossom, apricot rind, pomegranate brocade, and crystalline poppy.

 


The Heats of August
When summer opens, I see how fast it matures and fears it will be short; but after the heats of July and August, I am reconciled, like one who has had his swing, to the cool of autumn.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

I've had this one for a couple of weeks and have worn it several times before writing a review. The first time I tried this it was like a poppy single note so I let it rest before trying again. 

The next times that I wore it, it still started out with the poppy note front and centre but the pomegranate and vanilla were there to mellow it out.  The floral notes are very much in the background for me and I cannot pick out any coconut milk. The pomegranate and vanilla become stronger during the dry down and balance out the poppy. The gilded vanilla note is very pretty and blends well with the poppy. I think that these notes create a pretty, dreamy scent but there are some notes listed that  aren't really making an appearance for me, like the coconut and apricot. For me this is all about the poppy, pomegranate and vanilla. I will be interested to read others reviews on this one.

This is a milky textured fruity floral. I get the pom and apricot rind mingled with the florals which are meticulously blended. I'm thinking of bottling this.
