I found that the smell didn’t last long on the sink..

I was sent two samples, which was amazing as most do not offer this service so freely and so promptly. The two samples were Mimosa Flower and Leather and Vertiver. Both are very lovely, even addictive scents. Mimosa Flower is such a soft, delicate essence but with a slight saltiness in the background. It has a feeling of smearing the oil of the flower onto your skin and the willingness to linger there. It has a vibrancy that feels almost refreshing on a summers' day. I am taking the sample on holiday to test out how it works on a really hot sunny day. There is something in the heart of this scent that makes you want to smell it again and again.

I also tested the leather and vertiver, though this might be considered a more masculine scent, it works well as a feminine scent. It's heavy and smoky and addictive. it's hard to say exactly what it is, but once sprayed, you want to continue to smell it in the base of you skin scent... it is one that is great to base layer over another more floral scent. On its own, it can be quite a cosy, wrap up warm and hunker down in front of a fire type of smell but equally, it has a slight austere feel that makes it great to wear in the evening to an expensive night out where you'll find leather chairs and heavy cigars or somewhere like the opera or ballet. It's a scent to impress. I wouldn't go clubbing wearing this one, rather I'd go to dinner with that someone special person who I wanted to come back to smell my neck again and again. But that's just a personal opinion.

Unfortunately, the sillage and projection are weak on both of these fragrances and so neither seem to last long on the skin or project far. it is best to spray a little on some clothing to keep the scents alive and feel surrounded by the smell of either. It's worth doing, because they are both lovely scents.

I love the fragrance it is perfect for summer to keep you fresh.
