Very cute glowing orb of a bottle with little cherry blossoms on it. Filled with a boring, very cheap, almost one note transparent floral vanilla musk without a personality. To me it smells just like the old Britney Spears Curious with a few light waxy florals, a little baby powder, and loads of the headache-inducing, cheap perfume filler “Salicylate” to improve longevity. Salicylate is the persistent transparent musk note found in Gres Cabotine Fleur D’Ivoire and I picked up on the similarity between it and In Bloom. It a very “perfumey” smell. I took a look at the In Bloom box, and sure enough, Salicylate is listed on the back of the box, very high up the ingredients list. Curious was a poor performer, (never lasting on me more than 20 minutes) so I think they may have decided to try to improve it with chemicals.
In Bloom has been a strange mix of vaguely worded confused love and hate on perfume reviews I’ve seen and I think I know why. Salicylate is basically cheap perfume filler like MSG is for food….addictive and stimulates the brain by manipulating it with chemicals but you don’t know WHY you like it (hence the vaguely worded overexcited reviews). And at high levels it can give you a stinking headache. If you buy cheap perfumes from the markets sold by those perfume fakers who refill real fragrance bottles with fake liquid, you may have smelt the ingredient before.
Its a polarizing ingredient because peoples brains respond differently. For some people, because the brain hates been over-stimulated, after a while it just switches off. These people find themselves complaining in reviews they initially “sensed” something intriguing in the perfume then say it completely “disappears” in an hour. This is how addiction works. They will need to spray more and more to keep smelling it. On the other hand, people with a different brain makeup more sensitive to salicylates complain one tiny spray of this perfume is TOO strong hours after application. This is “In Bloom” for me. I wore it to work and several people said its “WAY too headache-inducing”, and “could you wear one of your other fragrances”? Then other people then said “What perfume are they talking about? I can’t smell anything!” A perfume half the people can’t smell and the other half get enraged about isn’t a great perfume for me.
Official notes below but I think we can safely ignore them like the “emperors new clothes”.
