HerbGirl Report post Posted September 14, 2014 A gossamer armor: seemingly delicate, but as strong as adamant. Opalescent vanilla-infused benzoin with silvered iris, white patchouli, mimosa blossom, and white musk. I must be smelling the florals here...must be the mimosa blossom and a touch of iris giving the blend that lift that iris gives (lovely) but I don't smell vanilla, benzoin and I might be smelling a bit of white patchouli. I'm sure with aging they will come forth, but not now, not yet. This is extremely Vernal, in my humble opinion, and I will be putting the atmo and hair gloss away until next year and am looking forward to it already. Beautiful. I wanted to edit - I sprayed this a few minutes ago and it is amazing how much different this scent is in just a week or two of settling! NOW I definitely smell a lovely combo of Iris, white musk and white patchouli with some slightly dry, spicy vanilla. Forget what I said about waiting for Spring...this will get much use now. Just as beautiful, but now the full experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lycanthrope Report post Posted September 27, 2014 To me this reads really smooth foodie, like an iris cookie covered with vanilla buttercream. It is very exquisite. I have two of these atmos, probably won't need more but one extra may make its way in to my cart... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theseagrows Report post Posted October 15, 2014 i just sprayed this around the room and it's a light, fresh floral scent. i think it'd be perfect in spring or summer. it's mostly mimosa, iris and white musk, from what i can tell. i don't seem to get much vanilla or benzoin really. a very pretty, ethereal scent, very evocative of delicate butterfly wings and springtime gardens.

zankoku_zen Report post Posted October 22, 2014 I have to say that I got a decant in a clear plastic bottle, and you can tell that the oils separate, with a heavier, redder oil coating the bottom. It was imperative to really roll (I was reduced to shaking the thing) to get an even mixture. With that said, I got a very spring/summer blend that was mostly mimosa and iris, with a touch of white musk and vanilla for sweetness. It was fresh, delicate, without being overly flowery. I can see why the Chorion HG would be gorgeous, but definitely a springy blend. I'll spritz again and see if I need more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
