The first time I tried this perfume, I was in Macy's. I had been looking for a signature scent that would have people turning their heads and stopping me to ask what I'm wearing. At the same time, I was looking for a perfume that I could wear on my Wedding day (which was coming up very soon). I came across the Givenchy display, and I had never tried any of their perfumes. I picked up the black bottle (which is usually known to be the more intense and less floral type of perfume), and I sprayed it onto my wrist. The first spray smelled of sweet grape, mixed with black pepper. I was immediately intrigued. As I waited a few moments, I could suddenly smell a silky, creamy, warm vanilla and sesame, and a few other notes that I couldn't describe. But it was heavenly. I asked the woman behind the counter to write down the name of this perfume, and I then continued shopping. As I walked through the stores, I had people stop me and ask "what are you wearing" and "you smell amazing." My sister in law, who was shopping with me kept telling me even hours after I sprayed the perfume on, that I smelled so good and exotic. In that moment I knew that I had to get this perfume. Even hours into wearing it, I could smell it right under my nose and I couldn't get enough. The sillage is amazing, it will have you leaving the room with a trail behind you.The bottom line: If you want to smell sultry, sexy, mysterious, spicy, DELICIOUS, heavenly... this is the perfume for you. This isn't the typical sickly sweet or extremely spicy perfume, or a basic floral perfume that every girl and woman wears. This is truly a one of a kind perfume that will make you stand out in a crowd. I truly wanted to find something that would make me smell unique, unlike any other woman, and this has done it for me. Some people may not be able to "handle" this kind of smell, or it may not mix well with their skin and ph, but this is truly a scent for a select few.
