    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.

    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 just received a set of both the black and the white. I much prefer Nirvana, the black one. Soon as I saw that Sandalwood was in it, I new i would love it. I have only received a deluxe sample of both, but now I have the Nirvana Rollerball on the way!

    I definitely need a full sized bottle of this! I received a sample from Sephora, and have been using it sparingly so I don't run out.
    It reminds me of a MAC perfume my Mom got me in the early 2000's - it smelled pretty much exactly like Nirvana Black, at least on me, and it was my favourite!
    This is sexy and rich, but I don't find it heavy at all, and it has lots of warmth and sweetness as well.
    This has quickly become a favourite of mine, and I'll definitely be saving up to buy it!

    I typically gravitate to more masculine scents and this is the perfect combination of masculine and feminine.

    It's spicy yet sweet like vanilla. It lasts a really long time without needed to reapply and the packaging is super sexy.
