This is a captivating fragrance. Upon application there is a stabbing punch of pepper and it’s right hand man ginger but it simmers down almost immediately. The person who wears it is ever so slightly unapproachable but once quick Parisian pecks on cheeks are exchanged they become almost immediately welcoming and admirable. As soon as the aforementioned top notes settle into a flirtatious conversation with the dominant middle & base notes of rose, benzoin, and blood accord it becomes clear this scent is not one to be taken lightly. The person wearing it knows who they are and knows what they want and isn’t afraid to kiss or to kill to get it. Lingers long after goodbyes have been muttered or trysts have been lovingly satiated, longer than a few other ELdO fragrances I've tried honestly. Utterly entrancing and smells like the women at the opera who have left their rich husbands at home. Bizet’s Habanera in a bottle; “Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime. Si je t'aime, prends garde à toi!”
