Anyone tried this yet? A few months ago the SA in Burberry sprayed me with it, but I honestly can't remember it.

I've been meaning to try it, but I haven't seen it in Sephora or Macy's yet...

I got a sample at Bloomingdales awhile back. It's pretty heavy on violet leaves and that's all I remember.

I sprayed some on at Bloomie's a few months ago when it came out and was thisclose to purchasing it. Thankfully, I walked around clothes shopping for about a half hour and the scent completely changed. The first 20 minutes or so was great ... very fresh and herbal. But the drydown was horrible on me. I really can't remember exactly what it smelled like but I know there was no way I was going to buy it after that.

I have a sample and have worn it once...to the gum for a workout. Only one small spray on my forearm, and it was very nice! Lasted through the workout, which is surprising because I sweat a lot and workout hard. At this time I can't really recall anything specific about it just that is was unique and very nice. I do seem to remember herbal greenness, not like Kenzo Tokyo, but more like a vetivery goodness.

I sprayed this at a Burberry Boutique and thought it was nice......I almost purchased this but talked myself out of it.....I might purchase this down the road when it launches at Sephora.

I thought it was OK. Better then a lot of other designer releases this year - but nothing I would purchase.
