Don’t Be Tempted

Not that great of a fragrance. It comes blasting on so strongly it makes me gag. Super potent blackcurrant and licorice do not mix well together. Smells like a bingo hall on a Friday night. Orange blossom nor rose had a chance here—there’s no way to uncover any other scent besides the two I mentioned. I’m just happy I bought a mini bottle. The bottle is their traditional round one and is cute on my mini perfume shelf, but I’ll never wear this one again. Total gag!

Blackcurrant bud and I are not buddies

I’ve tried a few of Donna Karan apples and dismissed all that I made acquaintances with. Then I saw Be Tempted and felt tempted to give it a try, so I ordered a sample of it. My intuition kept saying that it would not suit me, for both blackcurrant and blackcurrant bud, in medium to high doses, are not my buddies. Anyway, stubborn as I am, I sprayed it only once on my forearm and that was enough to smell this blast of extremely over sweetened red apple immediately accompanied by a loud blackcurrant bud. And this way the fragrance stayed for almost half an hour – the amount of time I manage to bare with it. Then I had to scrub it! At least it disappeared with only one scrub. I’m sure some lucky ones will find this one adorable, but it is not for me.
