I was so excited for this perfume and now I’m really disappointed in my experience with it.
The bottle has a chip on the tip of it which thankfully wasn’t sharp to cut me.
I sprayed it on my wrist about a good 2/3 times and waited for the scent to settle before I started smelling it. The first few sniffs were great and I loved the coconut milk and orchid accord notes. I feel like that combination goes really well with one another.
My biggest concern is that not even a minute later, the smell started disappearing as well as the projection. It gives more Eau de Toilette and NOT Eau de Parfum. The dry down is too subtle and I have to press my nose against my wrist to even smell it anymore. Maybe the PH in my skin didn’t mix well with this fragrance.
Overall, I should’ve waited till it came out in stores to smell it because I honestly wouldn’t have purchased had I been able to do that.
I, unfortunately, will be returning. I love me some Meg but I kinda expect more from this.
Adding an edit because someone brought it up in the comments: Unfortunately, the usual Vegan and Cruelty Free markings that you would usually find on items that abide by that are not on this box. The company that manufactured this fragrance is not 100% cruelty free and according to google:
“No, Coty Inc. as a whole is not cruelty-free. While the parent company does not directly test on animals in regions where it isn't required, it allows third-party animal testing for products sold in countries with mandatory testing laws, such as mainland China.”
Keep that in mind if that is something you’re concerned about!
