I wasn't too sure about this at first. It seemed very heavy on the civil and jasmine. However, once I gave the oil a while to settle after transport and gave it a chance to develop on my skin I was blown away. Not exactly like the real thing, biut a gorgeous scent none the less. My boyfriend kept telling me how good I smelt. I have problems with projection and spillage with most perfumes, but six hours later, I was still leaving a subtle trail of rose, vanilla and sexy smokiness
