Anyone here wear it?  Love it?  Hate it? Smiley Sad  I remember getting a sample of it and I think I liked it.  It's been too long.

I used to wear it and love it. Found it kind of s e x y. But my body chemistry has changed and I cannot tolerate it anymore. Now I just find it heavy and over powering.

 

These days I'm resigned to trying on perfume/scent in person and waiting to see if I can tolerate it, before I spend the $. My last ordering mistake was Pacifica and it wasn't expensive, it was just a waste & I loathe wasting money/food/anything.

I remember sampling and liking it but never wore it.  I thought the name was foreboding and creepy.

Thank you @kate2357 

If I don't love it, it's going back to Sephora.

I got it for 20% off during their fragrance sale.

I want to buy Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford but

it's just too spendy this time of year.  $132 WITH 

the 20% off.

Hope you like it. I'm still in search of my new scent. I was thinking something rose, then I was thinking citrus, like grapefruit or orange. LOL. I have no idea what, if anything I will end up with. I will wait until after the holidays and do an in-person search.

 

Edited to add: After spending the morning baking cookies and being told by my husband I smell good, I'm thinking my scent should be comprised of butter, cinnamon and sugar. LOL.

I'll go look at it!  If it sounds like something I like I'll probably just start with the travel size.  Thanks!

A contemporary twist of innovation, Kayali Citrus | 08 subverts olfactory expectations. Sparkling citrus notes of Italian Bergamot and Pink Grapefruit mingle with Rhubarb, Blackcurrant and Pink Pepper.

Immaculate floral chords of Rose Centifolia and Rose Damascena from Bulgaria lie at its heart. A lingering veil of Musk, Tonka and mystical Oakmoss ground the hypnotic scent in nature.

Fragrance Family: Floral Citrus
Scent Type: Fresh, Flirty, Chic
Key Notes: Bergamot, Pink Grapefruit, Rose Centifolia, Musk, Oakmoss

Sephora is sold out of the travel size ($75!) and the 1oz is $216.  Out of my comfort zone Smiley Surprised  But it sounds nice.
