Quite Synthetic Blend
I found three of Jeanne Arthes fragrances in my local Walgreens recently. I was able to test them all, luckily. Out of the three, I only found one that I did enjoy. This was not one of them.
Boum for women fell flat on its face for me. It’s supposed to be a floral-fruity, but frankly, it smelled quite synthetic without any distinguishable notes. I re-applied it heavily, but I could not distinguish the fruitiness from it and it still reminded me more of an aerosol room freshener than anything else.
I could imagine the Black Tea overtaking Cedar while the musk swirls around in a whirlwind masking the fruits. Hence, no distinguishable notes for me. More of an unequal blending that spits out as maybe this, maybe that with no prominence to it.
This is a definite try before you buy.
