But I'll give it a shot, and yes, that is SO true of most things! Thanks for the description — sweet milk & baby powder is not likely to work for me.

Initially, it's soft, warm, slightly spicy, very well rounded. It's difficult to separate the notes. It's floral, but not, spicy, but not, powdery, but not. Odd! In the opening, there is a bit of green in there which keeps it fresh and not to overly powdery/sweet, I can detect a little of the cereal bits, it smells milky. Sweet milk, and baby powder. After a few hours, it dries down very close to the skin and stays at the sweet milk/powder level on me. I like big perfumes, like Montale Sweet Oriental Dream and Ambre Narguile, so this isn't knocking my socks off. I love the opening, if only that would last. Ah, but that's true of most things in this world, huh? Haha! Well, I just got my sample from Luckyscent and I can't decide if I absolutely love it, or if it makes me smell like an old lady.

The price is no longer appealing, although it's not their fault the dollar isn't worth a thing anymore.
