Bina 520 perfume

Description

Bina**0’s opening is rather loud — lots of pink pepper, lots and lots of pear, a little whoosh of tart grapefruit to keep it under control — but it doesn’t stay loud at all (the notes: pink peppercorn, pear d’anjou, ruby red grapefruit, fuchsia peony, rose, geranium, vanilla, tonka bean and creamy musk). The heart is, like Daisy’s, mostly vague-ish flowers, but they’re not so fresh and clean as Daisy’s vague-ish flowers, and the dry down is warmer, deeper, muskier, sweeter, more vanillic. There’s a tinge of something ever-so-slightly off-kilter in the dry down that I decided smelled like vinyl, but I’m probably giving it credit for more quirkiness than it warrants: as with Daisy, the quirky is pretty much reserved for the bottle design. Bina**0 is available in *0, *0 and **0 ml Eau de Parfum, in a limited edition solid perfume ring, and in matching body products. It is currently exclusive to Bloomingdale’s, and is expected to go into wider distribution in mid-August.
