Eau de Parfum Discovery Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eCommitting to a full bottle of something this loud without wearing it first is a lot to ask, which is exactly what the Michael Kors Gorgeous! Eau de Parfum Discovery Set is for. It gives you the fragrance in miniature so you can live with it for a few days before committing. And it needs living with. The opening is quick, a flash of mandarin orange and the dry rosy heat of pink pepper, over almost as soon as it starts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat follows is a full blown white floral. Tuberose dominates, creamy and heavy with a green rubbery edge, jasmine thickens it, orange blossom cleans it up with honeyed brightness and ylang ylang adds a waxy, tropical sweetness. Tobacco sits underneath all four, dry and smoky sweet, and it is the thing that turns a bouquet into a personality. The base holds for hours. Suede is soft and powdery, benzoin and tonka bean are warm and sweet, cashmeran gives a musky blur, and guaiac wood with cedarwood keeps a smoky dryness running through to the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThirteen materials, enormous presence and a scent that people will ask about. Test it in the evening and in cold weather, which is when it works, rather than on a warm afternoon. There is a second reason to start small. Tuberose is the most divisive material in perfumery and the version of it here is unusually rich, so the question is not whether the fragrance is well made, which it plainly is, but whether you want to smell of it. A few days of wear answers that properly where a paper strip in a shop never will. Try it on skin and on fabric, because the two behave differently: on wool the tobacco and the suede come forward and the flowers recede, and some people prefer it that way entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe label is American and dates from 1981, when the designer launched it as an accessories and ready to wear business rather than a perfume one.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Kors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54547012845895,"sku":"BTS384183","price":45.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/images_12_31ca8f38-6002-49a4-af2e-10535a562d0d.jpg?v=1786905130","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/michael-kors-gorgeous-eau-de-parfum-discovery-set","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
