Good for $25, but is it good in general?
I picked this up on a whim from a Burlington while clothes shopping, and I saw a few reviews online giving it a positive name. Here is my experience with it:
Scent:
The scent doesn't have any particular smell or direction, it leans into a general mix of just "generic good things" floral, sweet, light smell. That being said, the smell is good, I actually enjoy it and was pleasantly surprised. However, problems started to arise after wearing it for a little bit and going out and about. Personally, when wearing it while out it started to smell a bit too synthetic and alcoholic to me and left me feeling nauseous and worried that I was making others around me feel nauseous too. I just didn't feel comfortable wearing this and wanted to kind of shrink away and be away from the rest of the people near me. Currently because of this I'd rate it a 3. if it didn't have any of the nausea problems probably an 8.
Bottle:
For a $25 fragrance, the bottle is decent and aligns with its affordable price tag. I think the design is good and I am satisfied with the bottle.
Sillage and Longevity:
Considering the price, both sillage and longevity met expectations, meeting at least average expectations for a $25 investment.
Price for Value:
being able to buy a 4.2oz bottle for 25$ at Burlington, it's got pretty good value for the money from a $/ml standpoint.
Conclusion:
Its good for the price yes, but is it good in general? that depends. To me it just came off a bit to synthetic and alcoholic, and personally made me nauseated. In my opinion it would be better to spend another 10-20$ and get something higher quality instead. you get what you pay for, but sometimes you need to pay more
