Herbs, balsamic, forest floor, spices - I can smell the first spraying. Later, the fragrance is soft, very feminine, a little bit flowery and mysterious. I did not know this manufacturer and its fragrances and have this smell (nothing for the faint of heart ....) ordered due to a blind review; I like otherwise only fresher, harsher scents like zBWrappings, Cristalle Eau Verte, Origins Ginger Essence. But this aroma of AP me to skin. It's not hard, not sweet - it's just different. Impossible to describe exactly. Who something completely different - will venture - - far away from the mainstream Dare. I have not looked back.
