My Impression

A hospital smell. Personally I don't like this perfume, because it is very sharp. It opens with saffron and an intense ambroxan bomb, then gets a bit sweeter with amber, but the ambroxan is still felt all the way through, and I think the metallic feel comes from the ambroxan. As for performance, it is quite a strong perfume and is not suitable for enclosed spaces.
