Dabbed on Chanel 1932 yesterday and the vanilla just popped off my skin, to the point that I kept wondering who was wearing Flowerbomb since that was the same vibe and I had sniffed the bottle just days before.
Turns out it was this, and because it’s a dab bottle quite a few years old, the top notes must have evaporated. The vanilla had impressive sillage and lasted a long time, but ultimately gave way a couple of hours later to a sweet musky woodsy drydown which was a skin scent a beautiful to wear. This bottle isn’t mine and it’s not something I’d wear again.
Afterwards, I went to the Chanel section in Holt Renfrew, and tried their version of it and actually it was the same. This is a sweet scent that would be perfect if you like scents like Flowerbomb. It’s quite indolic too which works differently on everyone. Try before you buy for this one!
