Euterpe
BPAL description: Carnation and white poppy, honeysuckle, lemon, iris and white musk.
In the bottle: Golden oil. Bright citrusy floral. Lemon, carnation, and iris with a bit of musk. It's the same iris note from Black Pearl. The carnation is very creamy and soft, the lemon juicy.
Wet: Lemon, iris, white musk. This is really a lemony, coconutless Black Pearl. It's a lovely true lemon note. Iris is a tad powdery, sort of velvety. Less carnation, sadly. I don't get any honeysuckle.
Dry: Much of the lemon has dissipated, and more of the white musk has emerged. It's pretty much white musk/iris at this point. Very simple, but also very elegant and feminine.
Later: Um...it smells oddly like Comet? Yeah, that cleaning powder you sprinkle for scrubby bathtub. Not bad, but strange! I presume it's the iris going more powdery.
Summary: Clean, powdery iris with a bit of juicy lemon, rich white musk, and some creamy carnation very faintly in the distance. Feminine and lovely. Dismal throw and longevity, though.
