Latest Reviews of Datura Blanche
It's slightly sweet and slightly heady (at first - not slightly heady, so beware!) and very powdery. There is a very slight bitterness in this sweetish powderiness, too. Reminds me of Anais Anais by Cacharel in this thick neither-sweet-nor-bitter floral powderiness a bit, but where Anais Anais smells innocent, this really doesn't. It's a bit more predatory.
My friend and I tried it and we both thought it's unisex. We loved it when we sprayed it. It's floral and fruity. Sweet, fresh, white. A bit of citrus as well. I can still smell it after 4 hours but it's very weak. After the first 20 minutes, it faded a lot. Nearly no sillage.
It made me thought of Rajasthan by Etro, but weaker.

A partial winnerMy first sampling of this today, and I'm afraid it's just not grabbing my attention. The sweet, heady opening was very pleasant, the heart notes also lovely. However, the almond acted strangely on my skin, turning into the fragrance of dry wood which detractedfrom the florals. The longer I wore it, the dryer it became, so by the end of seven hour's wear, I could smell only woodiness with a touch of vanilla thrown in. Ultimately the dry down seemed weak compared to the other stages. Still, worth a try if you love sweet orientals. Maybe it's just my skin chemistry.The floral notes were almost tropical in their intensity and very rich. Sillage is very good, longevity over 8 hours. This could be unisex depending on your skin chemistry. Pros: Lush white floralCons: Weak drydown (at least on my skin)"
