The initial smell is like toasted delicious almonds with syrup on top and some woody vanilla-e notes. Maybe it is because it's quite cold here right now i dont sense it , but i can still smell the accords of my other perfumes so i don't know. Okay, this is a good one, extremely good, gourmandy fragrance, it smells like "crème d'amande" very almondy the pistachio is detectable in the opening, if you want a 24h longlasting, creamy, sexy, sweet perfume, get this one!
Aromatic with a fruity, floral, and woody tone, this unique women's perfume from Elie Saab is your next must-have fragrance. I ended up liking this OG better than the Forever version, even though Forever has raspberry and blackberry listed, which are scents I enjoy! This enchanting top flows into a truly addictive heart of creamy bitter almond in a floral bouquet of orange blossom and smooth sensual magnolia. GoN opens with a glorious almond smell, intensely sweet and vanillic but I don’t find it cloying, given I use 3-4 sprays only (a third of my usual) and use it mainly in autumn and winter, as it can be overwhelming in warmer weather. Orangey sweetness lasts about 3-4 hours but creamy tonka based almond stays on my skin for at least 10 hours.Could it be because the fruity top notes mixed with the almond milk, tonka bean and cashmeran in the base notes? It's also a tad mature, but hopefully with layering I can sweeten it up to create that cozy scent we love in colder seasons. This is not unpleasant or anything (and I prefer it out of the aforementioned) but I'm a little disappointed at how nondescriptly sweet it is. It smells like pistachio ice cream to me in the beginning then morphs into a lightly spiced dessert scent within an hour or so; (I don't know where the gentle spice scent I'm getting is coming from though. I have Burberry Brit, and I deeply love the dry down of that with the creamy almond, and wanted to branch into other almond scents.
Tonka bean is absolutely present to give some depth and patchouli (a note I love) that is quite risky to be combined but otherwise it would be a 'Pink Sugar' flanker (from Aqualina) if you get my point while now all ages can appreciate.Alcohol, Parfum (fragrance), Dipropylene Glycol, Aqua (water), Limonene, Citronellol, Coumarin, Hydroxycitronellal, Geraniol, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Benzyl Salicylate, Linalool, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Citral, Citricacid, Benzyl Alcohol, Ci 14700 (red 4), Bht, Ci 60730 (ext. The con being that because it's strong it may be overwhelming and possibly nauseating (it was for me the last time I sprayed it which is sad).
Eau de Toilette (EDT): EDT’s are not as highly concentrated in oils and elixirs as an EDP or Perfume would be and contain one to three per cent of fragrance oils. Tonka Bean and Almond Milk blended together leave a final Almond trail while Patchouli reinforces the ultimate ELIE SAAB signature. For light intensity: spray in a cloud around your head and shoulders, let the fragrance fall gently around you.
How to use: Hold the fragrance approx 5 inches away and spray your skin, focusing on pulse points (neck, wrists etc) and/or spray generously in front of you and walk through for a full coverage. the person who said this smells like if you layered olympea and HP was right, it does have that vibe. g. Ange Noir Givenchy, which I actually love) but the edible almond cult is established by Black Opium. This is a cozy cool weather fragrance IMO but for that time of year I prefer others so I don't see this as purchase worthy for myself but I would recommend to younger, more outgoing women, and the bottle is gorgeous and very affordable. I don’t usually gravitate towards nutty scents so perhaps that’s why it wasn’t that impressive to me.

In my opinion, it isn't an almond fragrance, orange blossom is much more dominant during the heart notes that I almost sense no almond there. I tested a sample, which I received with much anticipation due to the buzz around this perfume, what a disappointment, I like sweet fragrances and perfumes with a personality but this is sweet generic and boring, I dont smell any pistachios or almonds, just burnt caramalised brown sugar.So please be aware if you're sensitive to florals that you may find this somewhat headache inducing. Very fast a play-doh vibe arrives, this is why Poison Girl comes in mind but here no bitter orange, just whispers of feminine orange blossom. so many pleasures are fleeting; the taste of pear, a beam of light on a just-opened flower or a kiss.
