This is one I’d reach for when I’m going out and want something a bit richer. It reminds me of Lady Million — sweet, warm and floral with that glamorous sort of scent that stays noticeable. Definitely more of an evening perfume for me than an everyda...

This one has that warm, sweet perfume smell I’d wear more in the evening. The almond and vanilla make it feel creamy and rich, and it reminds me of Dior Hypnotic Poison without the Dior price.
