1888

Seeing this one on discount was irresistible, and I'm happy with the purchase. I'm not a huge fan of yellow flowers and I do notice these in the wear, but it's got so much going on it's not a focal point. I love the opening, and the mood of this fragrance bounces around with time, and I find wear experience to be variable. Many report this to be somewhat beast mode, but sometimes my nose goes blind to this. So I do not wear it too regularly, and try to stick to only a few sprays when I'm heading to the office. It's adorable for a cheap pickup and blind buy :) Very unisex to my sensibilities, but has qualities that feel polarised between the floral and spice components...it has a fun carnation element that is pretty unique. Like plum blossom, carnation has a warm spicy vibe. The thing that escapes my nose is how a bunch of very robust base notes are elegantly disguised by floral elements. I can't pinpoint any particular element alone. It's a clever composition.

Nostalgia

For some reason this gives me vibes of an old gift shop/video shop that I used to go when I was a child that sells incense and other gifts. I’m not sure what it is, but very moody with a heavy carnation note.

Lovely

This is now my favourite perfume. Drags lots of attention. I personally like it.
