Shiny Pink Creature
There is something very unpleasant about La Perla SHINY CREATION. I feel that there was a good idea here somewhere but it got lost in the fumes of a fragrance factory as sweet syrup and resins were boiled down in gigantic metal vats to produce an end product smacking rather of one of the less palatable Victoria's Secret Secret Garden collection edts. The ones which cost $9.95 at regular MSRP, and about $2 on sale. Break it down: that's 20 cents of juice. A fraction of the cost even of a small bottle of water.
There's just not enough good stuff here, and the mixture of the mediocre stuff produces a sort of epiphenomenal fruity-melted plastic scent. Either this batch has turned, or this composition was not test spritzed in open air before being launched. Maybe it sounded like a good idea in a closed, incubated environment, but whenever synthetic resins are used, as they clearly are here, there is always a danger of the dreaded science experiment gone awry.
I believe that La Perla may have created a monster: a Shiny Pink Creature.
