It smells and feels expensive, well thought out and tapping into the exotic of a time long gone, but not being old fashioned, anything but! This to me is what I think Cleopatra would smell like after she had bathed in Asses milk! And if its good enough for a goddess its good enough for me!

I think I am truly obsessed with this scent, not to mention the beautiful bottle! It does state it is suitable for both day and evening and I would certainly agree with this. I would wear this anywhere. It is such a versatile scent. I, would happily wear this through all the seasons. Because the quality is so high, I don’t need to do my usual and spray constantly every hour of the day! Just a few sprays and it lasted all day.

Ordered a sample and loved it. Ordered the small bottle and then had to buy the bigger bottle. Really beautiful balance but not overly sweet and lasts all day. The packaging is extremely beautiful too.
