I was wondering why this smelled so unlike it's description for me but then saw Soupy's descrip as honeysuckle and yelled "THAT'S IT!" (like Charlie Brown does to Lucy in A Charlie Brown Christmas when she asks if he has fear of everything). Though I get something a little woodier lurking in the background, so it's a complex honeysuckle, but I am just not big on honeysuckle.

I get one note from this over several hours, and that one note is "The extremely specific smell of Dove Nutrium Moisture Body Wash."

 

Unfortunately, I do not like the extremely specific smell of Dove Nutrium Moisture Body Wash.

Orchid, white musk, and bergamot wafting over juniper berries, with a gentle touch of soft, earthy patchouli.

 

This is a four+ year old imp from my Fougère pack.

 

In the imp and wet on my skin, most of what I can smell is the orchid. Maybe also the juniper, I'm not sure. Almost no musk and definitely no patchouli. Previous attempts with this one have left me feeling it was "too floral" but turns out I like plenty of florals, so I really think this is the orchid. 

 

Drydown some of the other notes are coming through, like bergamot and juniper. Still not getting patchouli or musk really. I like it better with the bergamot and juniper. I like most of the notes in this perfume, but I guess orchid just isn't really for me.

 

Will not be seeking a bottle, and I will give away this imp as I've used it a few times at least. Not many.

 

Edit: Is this what folks call "amping?" Maybe my skin amps orchid. Huh!
