Sounds Like I see My Mother by Polica

Review:

First and foremost, It states on the site (As you can see above )That Patchouli is one of the main scents in this. I love Patchouli, but on the sample I received no where was patchouli to be found! The scent is not even there when you smell it. So I find that their advertising of patchouli in this scent to be VERY misleading. Specially when you know that patchouli has a very distinctive scent.

Moving on. So I opened this and upon smelling it I could pick up the sandalwood. Just barely though. The Cardamom is VERY overpowering making this smell very floral like. I am not a fan of Floral myself. It is something that several others whom I let smell it as well agreed this is not something a younger lady would wear. Perhaps if you like floral you may but this is almost gagging in a way. Which is a real shame. In the end it was not for me. Specially with how misleading it is on the site compared to once I got it.

Perhaps it may be for you though. So don't roll it out just realize you will not find the patchouli scent in this if that is what caught your attention.


So my over all view of this companies product.

They only recently opened their site. I was one of the first people to order from them. They were giving away "free" samples. I state it that way because Free means free. Typically Free does not include you having to dish out money. None the less I paid three dollars for shipping and handling. For three small leaflet samples of their product. I wasn't overly impressed by their product out of the three their little quiz stated would be for me. Only ONE of them was actually something I liked.

I also can not justify personally spending Fifty Dollars on a one ounce bottle of perfume. Specially if I wear it often so I go through it faster. None the less for the unique campfire rebel one I may put the money out.Though they are making high quality product I only found one thus far I like. So their quiz failed on me. 1:3 is not a great hitting rate. Perhaps at a later date I will revisit their shop and give it another go.
