This smells pretty similar to Elie Saab Le Parfum but it also has something different about it going on although that difference is very minimal. The strange thing is Colour Me Pearl projects more despite being significantly cheaper. However the dry down is different for both the perfumes. Give it a sniff if you like sweet floral perfumes, I have a feeling you won’t be disappointed

I’m the first reviewer for this one? Yikes. I will try to do a good job then.
For me, the orange blossom and Rose notes are most prominent, with a tiny bit of sweet honey. Cedar is noticeable in a very understated manner and that, along with the patchouli, reins in the dominant notes to something which is a dry-ish, sour sweetness. I only get musk and amber if I stick my nose to my wrist and take in a deep sniff.
I can’t detect Jasmine on its own. I consider myself quite competent when it comes to sniffing out Jasmine so it’s either extremely well blended or non-existent. YMMV.
Another reason I am pretty pleased with this is that I have a number of Milton Lloyd perfumes and most, not all, whilst generally pleasant, have a certain tart, gone-off fruit note which is something of a ML signature but regrettably for me lets them down. I don’t know what the note is nor why it is in so many of these perfumes. Perhaps someone else here knows what I mean? It means that something in most of their perfumes makes them smell the same alongside the notes that then make them different. It’s hard to explain! For example, it’s in Bondage Chocolate, Stars, and Futurity; not so much in Night Flower; and not at all in Hawaii. Anyway, the weird mystery note does not appear to be in Colour Me Pearl and for that i am delighted.
This is an inexpensive, fresh scent and as a Brit, I am happy to support British brands like Milton Lloyd.
TL;DR; dry-ish, sour, sweet fresh/floral with noticeable orange blossom and rose, inexpensive and pleasant. As always, YMMV. Don’t forget the pressurised bottle when applying; use a light hand.
