On the fence with this one, while it is complex and sweet which is something I normally love, there is an element of cheapness I feel about it. Might be that patchouli/musk is just not for me though, brings back childhood Eastern European block memories of dime a dozen perfumes. I have 100+ niche samples for swap within Europe - updated spreadsheet of samples on my profile, get in touch!
I have it, I love it. The bottle is also charming. I have also Zen and both smell masculine to my colleague, but I love them.
Deeply balsamic on my skin. Far too heavy for me. What a shame, because bottle is absolute beauty.
I love Zen so much, so I tried this one as well. For the first few seconds it was just too strong for me that I wanted to wash it. But after a min, it was much better. Still, no love happened as with Zen. For me just too much patchouli and vanilla, quite overhelming and I'm afraid it is just to loud for me. Still, can recommend, at least try it I can immagine to be in the mood to wear it sometime, but not always
For me Zen Secret Bloom is a quiet hidden garden at night. Moonlight, dark shadows and beautiful flowers. It's mysterius, yet comforting. Unique and familiar at the same time, like a dream. Black vanilla, patchouli, jasmin and incence are all very much present here. When jasmin and incence slowly disappear it dries down to patchouli-based vanillaish blanket which reminds me a lot of Flowerbomb Extremes drydown.
