I really like this perfume with ylang ylang, lilac; and vanilla & musk in the background. Very feminine, original and fun, for all the seasons, maybe more for spring and fall. It is a happy scent! 8/10
TINABB 1.2 is a gorgeous floral number. Pink pepper is the MASTER at enhancing soft, delicate florals, and it does so beautifully here. I smelled the ylang-ylang almost immediately. After a few minutes, the lily and iris joined with the fresh green ivy notes. The vanilla and musk are not as pronounced as in a lot of floral fragrances, but the overall medley is very sweet. I can see where other people are saying it smells like bubblegum on them, but my body chemistry is pulling out a symphony of fresh cut flowers. Words cannot express how in love I am with this selection.
This smells clean. Not clean as in CLEAN (I hate CLEAN fragrances), but more that powdery soapy clean that you get from chanel no 5 and chanel léau no 5. Unfortunately, I can't justify the price of this perfume + the bottle looks awful.
Pink pepper and ylang ylang can go kinda baby wipe in certain fragrances. I do not get that at all in this fragrance though. It opens with a creamy floral. It's very smooth smelling and there's something also almost watery about it like the floral are dewy. It then turns a bit spicy with the creamy floral scent and remains that way for the rest of the time. I find this to be a super pleasant spring scent that also smells sophisticated. The vibe of this is reminiscent of Issey Miyake A Drop D’issey with the watery yet creamy florals that go a bit spicy. It's not surprising that they share several notes like lilac, vanilla, and musk. They're definitely not dupes but If you enjoy one, you may enjoy the other. New comparison alert! I smelled Amouage Guidance at ZGO Perfumery in San Francisco and at first, I could not place what it reminded me of. I thought maybe Intense Cafe. When I was walking through the city with my blotter, it hit me-Not a Blue Bottle 1.2! They smell so similar. They're both creamy, spicy florals.
If i would like to smell like laundry detergent i would have chosen this or Byredo Blanche. They both smell like a lux detergent unlike Clean warm cotton which i cant stand. This is a pretty and girlie laundry detergent perfect for spring and summer.
