Suuuper intense

Incredibly strong and smoky and dark and peppery. A bit too much for me to wear personally, but I can appreciate its complexity and intensity.

Ring, ring darling, it's Cruella de Vil! - With pepper for all.

This perfume IS spice. In good ways and bad. The opening is a blast of pure, fresh-cracked black pepper, so much pepper you'd expect this to be Cruella's (book version) daily scent. Smoky and peppery is the name of the game for this perfume. A sample of aromatic hellfire, almost. As it dries, the woods and other spices begin to come up, but not really any fruitiness. Any fruit notes got drowned out by the hefty woods and spices. And yes, the pepperiness stays, it just harmonizes with the rest of the notes as it ages. Becomes quite pleasant and subtle after an hour or two, feels very dirty and very sultry, in a devilish way. However, if you've no nose for pepper, you've no nose for this! I found the spices swallowed the other notes, which ultimately detracted from my overall enjoyment of the perfume, as I do love spiced citrus, and I had high hopes for this scent. Seasonality is for sure winter. Overall: Projection could have been way better, and the notes ultimately fell flat due to the pepperiness of it all.

So smoky and sultry

It has a notes of floral but it’s overmasked by a lot of smoke. Must be from the smell of gin and absinthe. It’s hard to describe but it’s very sexy. I love it overall! Can’t wait to try more from Liquides Imaginaires
