Do flamingos use suntan oil?
I like the flamingo theme and bottle color, so I was very curious about this, but sadly, it doesn't quite work for me. This is a very creamy floral, dense and opulent, with orange blossom being the main note to my nose. Apricot, tonka and musk warm up the scent and give it a sweet base. I get a little rosy geranium and barely any hints of the greener notes.
So far, so good - these are all notes I usually enjoy. But there is something about this that feels extremely oily to me. It reminds me of sunscreen or suntan oil, but in a very sharp, almost soapy way. I'm talking about the old-fashioned, floral kind of sun products, not the more modern, tropical kind. If scents had colors, this wouldn't be flamingo pink, but white, cream or very light yellow.
This is not bad, but there are many other fragrances that do the sunscreen theme better. In theory I should love this, but the oiliness feels smothering at times and the sharpness isn't making it easier.
I think I expected something warmer and maybe fruitier.
There are many other TMOV perfumes that I like or even love, but this is just okay to me. I'm sure Flamant Rose will find other fans.
