Our verdict on Psychedelic Love: Acquired

A truly divisive fragrance, Psychedelic Love can be either an intoxicating, sexy masterpiece or a cloying, 'grandma'-scented headache. If you're willing to take the trip, sample it first - the pay-off is immense for many.

About

Psychedelic Love opens with the heady, creamy sweetness of ylang-ylang, brightened by a whisper of bergamot to prevent it from becoming too heavy. As it develops, a velvety rose emerges, enveloped in a soft, almond-like heliotrope and the radiant lift of hedione. The dry down is a sensuous embrace of warm, powdery sandalwood and an ancient, resinous myrrh, creating a smooth, almost gourmand depth that feels both comforting and seductive.
