Cologne Fragrance Scent
Decadence
perfume
I
received the Decadence perfume as a Christmas present
last year. It was a 3.4 oz Eau Due Parfum spray in an
elegant square bottle. It was really a treat for me
because I don't usually wear perfume, and the only ones
I owned were those cheap drugstore kinds, like Coty
or something. Well anyway, I'm not used to owning a
high-end brand like the Decadence perfume either so
I was pretty happy. When you spray the perfume on, you
only need one or two sprays to get the scent. After
that it smells too strong. You have to let it dry for
about 15 minutes before it mixes with your body chemistry
and you smell the lovely scent. When you first spray
it, it's a little strong and smells more like alcohol,
so wait for the dry down before you judge it. If you're
testing this in stores, it's best to sniff those pre-sprayed
cards, or better yet, spray it on your self and wait,
instead of sniffing it from the bottles. I think this
has hints of vanilla in there.
Kate
Moss is the model for the ads, so they are marketing
this towards a younger crowd, as opposed to the types
that wear old classics that wear Coco Chanel. To me,
Coco Chanel smells nothing like the Decadence perfume.
I don't like that scent - it's just unpleasant and stuffy.
The Decadence perfume smells more fresh and youthful.
It is a warm smelling fragrance, and it might be too
strong to wear on hot, sticky summer days. For people
who get headaches around strong perfumes, you should
really test this out when you buy this because I can't
wear this when I have a huge headache - it gets to me.
They also have a light Eau Du Toillet version out right
now, which my mom has which is lovely as well, but I
prefer the more scented Parfum.
Overall the Decadence perfume is a very unique scent.
People will definitely recognize this when they smell
it, or they'd be so pleased with it, they'd ask you
what it is. I've had a few people tell me they really
like it. Usually I don't wear enough that it clouds
me so no one complains about it. As for the Decadence
perfume lasting power, it lasts all day, and it will
keep lasting until you take a shower and do your laundry.
The smell doesn't change so the quality is really high.
Those cheap drugstore scents usually wear off until
it smells like chemicals. This is the only perfume I
wear now, and I'm a really picky person. Since you need
so little of this, the bottle will last a long time.
I've been using this for more than 6 months, and I used
about a quarter.
