{"product_id":"velixir-galatea-sample","title":"Velixir Galatea Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eGalatea is a strong, unisex Eau de Parfum from Velixir, a FragranceGems house, tagged gourmand and oriental for winter. Caramel and biscuit open it, tonka bean, honey, sugar and milk form the heart, and white musk, vanilla, a praline filling and amber close it. This is a dessert-leaning list from start to finish, so a decant is the careful way to try it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Caramel, Biscuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Tonka Bean, Honey, Sugar, Milk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e White Musk, Vanilla, Praline Filling, Amber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCaramel and biscuit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGalatea opens with caramel and biscuit. FragranceGems calls it a delicious, inviting start that brings warmth at once and a gourmand opening with a sense of luxury. There is no fresh top here to ease you in, so the first spray tells you directly whether you want this much sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTonka, honey, sugar and milk\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart holds tonka bean, honey, sugar and milk. The description speaks of soft milk accords melting into liquid honey, for a deep, velvety texture. Milk makes sweetness feel rounder, and this stretch shows whether the perfume turns creamy and comforting on you or too sugary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhite musk, vanilla, praline and amber\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base lists white musk, vanilla, a praline filling and amber. The description says the praline gives depth and the white musk a clean ending. That clean musk is the counterweight to all the sugar above, and its effect on your skin is the main thing a sample will show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWear one spray on bare skin in cool weather, since winter is the listed season, and do not overapply a perfume this sweet. Note the caramel at the start, the milk and honey in the middle and the clean musk at the end. Try it on an evening and on a special occasion, as both are tagged, to see how strong it feels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is listed as unisex and strong, for daily, evening and special use in winter. It suits people who love dessert-style perfumes with caramel, honey and vanilla and want a lot of warmth in cold weather. If you prefer fresh, green or citrus perfumes, Galatea sits at the opposite end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Velixir Galatea as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA perfume built on caramel, honey, milk and praline can be a favourite or too much, and the difference is skin and taste. A 10 ml decant lets you learn that over several cold evenings before you look at the 100 ml bottle FragranceGems also sells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs Galatea very sweet?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCaramel, biscuit, honey, sugar, milk and praline are all in the pyramid and it is tagged gourmand.
