Derek Lam 2am Kiss - Solid Perfume Balm For Women - Luxurious Amber Gourmand Fragrance With Notes Of Caramel - Sweet, Sophisticated, Long-Lasting Solid Perfume Stick Fragrance - 3.5 g

This is forever going to be MY scent! I can't express enough how much this perfume has made me feel... without exaggeration I cried when I first activated the notes between my wrists and put my wrist to my nose. This is the exact same scent I have been on the lookout for based on a memory I have when I was 4. She was our German friend we met in Egypt that I would refer to as Aunty Maryam, she was married to her Egyptian Husband who painted portraits of people for a living. They lived on the 10th floor, and I would play with her 2 children in thier 90esque decorated room. I once asked her why she smelled so nice and so she took out this small round tin container that was gold and had red green and yellow flower design on it and looked like lip balm, when she opened it this exact smell came out of it! She said her mother would bring her a new one with her from Germany everytime she came for a visit. and since then I've tried my best to find the exact scent. The closest thing I found was Red Jeans but it didn't hit my note right like this Solid perfume did. Thank you so much for bringing me so much joy

My poor little parfum tube came all melted but the scent is so god damn addictive that I ain’t sending it back. I’ll scrape it out of the tube with my grubby sausages if I have to and order three more. I was surprised by what I smelled when I first tested it on my skin, I was expecting all musk and old lady smell but what I got had a top note of fresh air like you’ve been outside doing healthy things, gentle heart note of subtle ginger, and a base note of something reminiscent of the pleasant part of what patchouli smells like without the heavy funk. This scent makes me feel like I’m healthy and fertile, with warm skin and a bit of spice to me. It smells high end. Overall I am so surprised by this purchase. It’s like $12 and it’s better than anything I’ve tested or blown money on before. I think I’ve found my perfect signature scent.

most reviews say it had no way of exposing more product but the top white bit above the colored ring in the middle twisted up easily for me. It's very small though only 1cm of product. Very warm scent, almost cinnamon like, which I wasn't expecting as it's advertised as amber and salted wood but that's on me for not checking Fragrantica!

Me gustó mucho el aroma

After reading all the positive reviews on this stick perfume I decided to give it a try. What a bad decision that was. When I opened it I was expecting to smell something. All I smelled was nothing, so I thought maybe if I put it on I would get some sort of scent. To my disappointment, nothing!! I ended up throwing it away. May work for some people I guess, not me 😪
