Dita Von Teese EDP 20ml

Never again

On first application I can detect the bergamot, and I think there is also something similar to a tea accord; I can't pinpoint everything down, but it reminds me of some kind of herbal lend of tea that a co-worker regularly brought into work...I normally dislike perfumes with jasmine as I find it heavy and migraine inducing, so it nice to ind a fragrance including it that I can wear. It is actually the rose note that is the strongest, and it is more rosehip, then the traditionally powdery, sweet rose. I get a brief whiff of tiare, but the pepper note soon develops and hides all of the florals, other then the rose.Dita Von Teese soon shifts from a floral perfume to a warm oriental, as the lightly smoked notes develop and mixes nicely with the spicy pepper and warms up the reminder of the fragrance.Official scent notes: bergamot, peony, Bourbon pepper, Bulgarian rose, Tahitian tiare flower, jasmine, incense, patchouli, musk, guaiac wood and sandalwood.***I really like the actual fragrance, but, unfortunately, the longevity and sillage are both very poor. On skin the fragrance barely lasts more then four hours, so I tend to spry it onto my bra or tank top, to make it last longer. Otherwise my 20ml bottle wouldn't have lasted very long, as you practically have to bathe in it for a lasting fragrance.

Perfume is lovely! It's definitely a nod to classic floral fragrances, but not heavy or old ladylike. I got compliments on it immediately. The design of the bottle is also lovely but unfortunately the quality is not deserving of the juice inside. After just two uses, the tassle came off, after a couple more uses the actual atomizer came off and rolled off somewhere and currently I can no longer use it :-( I hope it turns up but just a warning about the container. I was not being rough with it or anything. I understand that perhaps the cheap bottle was necessary to keep the item affordable but unfortunately in my case it interfered with the use of the product. I still recommend the perfume but be extra gentle and careful when you use this product. 3.5 stars.

I noticed some people commented how the fragrance doesn't last long. I put it on at night and could still smell it the next morning. It's yummy and exotic smelling. Would definitely recommend! I would buy anything DIta puts her name on.
