    Mystery & Compliments Galour!

    This is my signature scent! I get complimented on it ALL THE TIME! I hope they didn't change the formula as it's getting lots of recent bad reviews on here! To me it smells like vanilla, sandalwood, and blackberries(?) when I smell it from the bottle. It smells mysterious, if you can describe a scent like that, and dark. I would describe it as a women's perfume inspired by men's cologne? It's too sweet for it to be cologne and has no spiciness at all, but that's the only way I can put it. I find that it lasts longer than I think. For example I can't smell it after the first thirty minutes to an hour of putting it on myself, but I get complemented 8 hours later that I smell nice! It wears really nicely and keeps the base of vanilla really well. I think that those who are giving it bad reviews are maybe more floral wearers? Or expecting it to compliment Nirvana White? I smelled Nirvana White in Sephora and absolutely hated it! I think it depends on if you're a vanilla warm type perfume wearer or a floral type of gal! I do hope that you give it a sniff if it's available to you! I'm always getting asked what I wear because it wears so nicely and is dimensional (and mysterious/dark smelling?)!

    Intoxicating

    I always get so many compliments whenever I wear this!! It's my favorite night time frarange and is so sexy and sophisticated. It's intoxicating without being over powering or too sweet and I love layering it with other scents

    OMG!

    The absolute best parfume! It smells so good! It is powerful enough to stay on your clothes/accessories for several days, but subtle enough that no one gets annoyed by your parfume.

    amazing

    This is one of my favorite scents. It's not too overpowering and i like to wear it everyday for work. The main notes I smell are sandalwood and Vanilla. It's such a warm scent and perfect for fall and winters.

    Not a fan of perfume but I can't get enough of this!

    Perfume always gives me awful headaches, so finding a scent I enjoy has been a struggle. I recently got this as a sample with a Sephora order, and I can't get enough of it. It smells amazing! Very warm with a hint of vanilla. Not too overpowering. I am definitely going to purchase the full size of this.

    I love this perfume! It has a really nice spiciness to it. It is mostly sweet but has a little bit of that edge to it. It smells great on my skin as a rollerball but I will buy the full size when I am done. At first I thought I preferred the White but the Black is so much better! It has great staying power as well.

    I purchased a roller ball of Elizabeth and James Nirvana Black. This perfume has a musky scent. I like it alone or layered with Elizabeth and James Nirvana White. I feel it has pretty good staying power. It is a little masculine but with femininity mixed in. I have never smelled anything quite like this. I enjoy the fragrance and would recommend.

    I have this perfume in a rollerball. It is a very feminine scent, not Very floral at all. It is more musky, it has a lot of vanilla to it and a very small amount of violet, I think. This is a nice, seductive scent, so long as you apply it very sparingly as it can be quite strong if you don't.

    I'm very picky with the perfumes I buy, but I couldn't resist this one. The only issue I have is that it doesn't stay very long. It is a very strong scent but just doesn't last! However, I bought the roller ball so it's easy to carry around with me so I can put on more whenever I want. Highly recommended! Get a lot of compliments!

    I got a sample. I didn't like the scent, it was weak, found it to be more masculine and the scent didn't last long.
