My first encounter with the scent was quite shocking, abusive even. Chloe and I were shopping at Macy's innocently enough, when an elderly woman in more makeup than a drag queen on Halloween was hauling A around the counter screaming, "ladies, ladies...try this!!!! stop, come over here!" I tried to tell her I was horribly allergic to everything in the perfume section but she wasn't having any of it. (I was having flashbacks to the time I was assaulted by a woman selling Clinique's Happy one Christmas season and sneezed in the New Year.) We ducked into the shoe section to escape the crazed perfume lady - too late, she was going for Chloe. "Look, you look just like this model on the poster. This is your scent, it was made for you!"
OK sure, Chloe is a skinny blonde but that's where her resemblance to the hideous model on the poster ends. As if the lady weren't irritating enough, comparing my friend to an ugly pre-pubescent model was the icing on our pet peeve cupcake. So when the sample of MADAME arrived in my mailbox a week later, I just had to laugh.
Oddly enough, SHOCKING is still the apt description, only this time in a good way.
The scent is pleasingly vibrant and floral (how you'd immagine the color neon pink to smell).
Just out of curiosity, I looked up flowers that look like this smells and found a variety of lillies and the king protea. It turns out these flowers represent Majesty and Daring - a darn good representation of the fragrance itself. Wallflowers need not apply that THIS perfume counter! Its definitely not your average sweet, girly stuff.
