Revisiting Divine fragrances because a POL'ers generous sharing of samples with me reminded me of 3 of them.
Divine by Divine is the favorite Divine fragrance of a lot of people. It was the last of the women's fragrances I tried.
It bears trying more than once.
What did I think?
My first thought was that this was not for me. But wearing it at the moment I first wrote this review, I was changing my mind.
The notes
D I V I N E opens with a fruity note peach lightly spiced with coriander passing through a cloud of full and tender flowers gardenia, tubereuse des Indes, May rose finally to reveal a warm and sensual chord of oak moss, musk, vanilla and spice.
The spice combos
There are some interesting spice combinations in it.
What is the Peach like?
But this does not smell like the spiced peaches my mother used to serve at holidays. The peach is very fleeting. It is not like Femme.
What about the flowers?
The white flowers are the heart of it, but the tuberose is toned down.
Is it gourmand?
The vanilla is barely there. It is not gourmand, unless there is a food that would correspond to it in a rustic kitchen with bouquets of flowers.
My take
Quite yummy, actually. I don't wear Femme well, but I do love peach in a fragrance. Dawn Spencer Hurwitz has several peaches, or did, as I have samples of them. The Body Shop also.
How about you?
Do you wear this one?
