I would not have thought Mitsouko is a warm, sensual scent!

I think it is a very powerful, strong, different scent, almost impossible to describe. (I have a small bottle.)

I believe she can come on strong, but the lingering dry-down is soft and powdery for many.

I love things that are complex and hard to describe.   :wink:

The dry down is the key.  If you don't like the initial force of it, put it on an hour before you are going somewhere - right, Poppy?

Right.  I do this anyway, because so many folks are sensitive to fragrance now-a-days.  I get to enjoy the full scent and it has settled down before I go out.
