Dream Sequence - Marissa Zappas

Dream Sequence by Marissa Zappas is a slightly more grown-up interpretation of her original scent which was called Lilac Dream which I absolutely loved. Dream Sequence however has taken over my heart. I absolutely love this perfume it is so beautiful. The inspiration comes from Oklahoma the 1955 film of the musical and this Dream Sequence where there's a tornado and there's lilacs and stems and and soil kind of all shifting around in the ether and I totally understand that when I smell this because this has a lot of complexity and a lot of different notes that sort of hit at different times. What I really get from this is a journey and I really think that is so exceptional. I'm fine with the linear scent. I wear a lot of them. I like things that just sort of stay how they mostly start. This doesn't. This starts out a kind of tangy and green. I get this like little bit of tartness almost. I get this almost sheep feel at the beginning. It's really unique and at first you're like where's the lilac and then give it a couple minutes and it's almost like through this like fog or this haze this beautiful creamy lilac sort of emerges quietly through the din. It's just this gorgeous like really true smelling lilac and then the dry down actually goes kind of soapy on me. I think it's the type of musk that she uses which I love which I also get a lot of in like Annabelle's Birthday Cake my other favorite. I think this is such an intricate and thoughtful scent. I don't find that it really shouts out loud which I don't want it to. I love that it sort of stays close and it wears softly and elegantly but it's just so interesting and so beautiful. I think this is a work of art. Try it out.
