Review
This scent is a powerhouse floral and is perfect for the lovers of Gardenia, Tuberose and Jasmine. All 3 flowers live in the heart of this scent and overtake the senses in the best way possible. It’s like being surrounded by hundreds of bouquets of flowers. It has been said to be too powerful for the workplace, but otherwise is a great any time, any place, any occasion scent. It will work for anything from a beautiful, sunny day running errands, brunch with friends, date night, an evening out dancing, weddings, or simply to feel beautiful while lounging around the house. It will work in any season and will last for hours. It has been compared to Truth or Dare by Madonna and Versace Blonde. Try this sample and let us know what you think!
Inspiration
Fracas was created to make the wearer feel like a bombshell, and to stun those who encounter it.
Notes
The blend of Gardenia, Tuberose, and Jasmine are found in the heart, but are felt immediately in the opening all the way down to the base. Bright citrus notes of Bergamot and Mandarin add a crisp, fresh quality to the flowers, and a base of Musk and Sandalwood add depth, longevity, and a touch of seduction.
Top Notes: Bergamot, Mandarin
