Obscure Delight
Another obscure bargain picked up while scrounging the online discounters. The top note is a bit stanky/stinky, and I was about to give up on this, thinking the Lily-of-the-valley was going to be a spoiler here, but it settles into a pleasant cedary/musky floral, bright with citrus that doesn't fade. The top of the metal band on the cap isn't smoothly finished and feels capable of delivering scrapes, so beware. However, for under $10, this perfume isn't bad at all.
Next question..what is the Dorall Collection? Per their website, it's a "value quality european fragrance line composed with french oils...Anabelle for women is our impression of Anais Anais by Cacharel for Women." In short, all are copies of famous fragrances. Can't tell how good a copy this one is until I smell Anais Anais, which lists many more notes than Anabelle. However, I do smell hyacinth, so perhaps Anabelle is a better copy of Anais Anais than this pyramid implies.
