Wings of an Angel

Got this as a freebie with my first order. Very nice!

Out of the vial: Vanilla with a hind of mint. I would describe it as...bubbly.

On me: Boozy sort of vanilla. Not sure I get any musk and not sure what hawthorne smells like but I do like it. It's not very complex on me but I am starting to suspect that burbon vanilla loves my skin a little too much and just amps up to overpower everything else. This also happened with Bar Sinister but that got way too sweet and sickly, this is just right.

Delicious. I surely get some mint here, but it's not prominent. Sweet, sugary, but the vanilla makes it very round. Smells almost like almond paste.

Beautiful beautiful. wraps you in its marzapan wings...just wish it lasted longer.

Lightly vanilla, lightly minty. I generally hate mint but somehow I don't hate this one.

I've held off on reviewing Wings of an Angel, because I wasn't quite sure what to say. Everything seemed reductive.
In terms of actual scent? This is lovely, a soft ethereal blend, with the hawthorn and the vanilla being the strongest notes, but neither dominating.
I know I say I love a lot of Possets perfumes, and I do, but this is a whole other level.
I have worn this on days I want to feel beautiful. I wore this on the day of my most stressful job review. I wore this today, when I was interviewing for a new job. I wear this to feel comfort, to feel strength, to feel a protective radiance around me.
Wings of an Angel is something beyond, and I love it most profoundly.
