Oddly Fougèresque
Kat Von D ADORA opens with an immediately detectable incense note to my nose. What ensues is very strange. I am nearly certain that I smell cypress. This is apparently my interpretation of the water hyacinth, cassis leaf, and thyme. In any case, there is a very strong forest green aspect to this perfume, making it seem almost a fougère and far more masculine than feminine. The fruits are really shrouded by all of the shrubbery in this composition. In fact, the last category I'd choose to describe this sui generis creation is fruity floral!
I'm pretty sure that the oddness of this fragrance caught lots of people off-guard, accustomed as anyone who bothered to test this composition probably was to the pretty standard feminine fare of SAINT and SINNER. ADORA is just eccentric enough to be likeable to me, though I would have to be in a certain sort of mood to wear it. I probably will use the rest of my roller ball but probably will not buy a bottle.
