Anna Sui Forbidden Affair

Fashion designer Anna Sui’s Forbidden Affair tells a story of romance and intrigue, where a fun-loving and free-spirited princess can dream. Nothing is forbidden. Everything is fun. It’s all a part of the fantasy where a girl can dream of romantic gestures, flirtatious glances, and the magic of finding her perfect prince. Forbidden Affair is a soft and romantic fragrance with a delightful mix of floral and fruity notes. Lemon, red currant, and black currant offer a sensual greeting, as the heart meld into raspberry, rose petal accord, and pomegranate. Intriguing violet, cedar wood, and musk offer a lingering, seductive dry down with a lasting cosmetic softness. Notes:Lemon, Red Currant, Black Currant, Raspberry, Rose Petal Accord, Pomegranate, Violet, Cedar wood, Musk. Style:Romantic. Intriguing. Fun.

Quick Take: intoxicating
This scent is reminiscent of Lancome's Tresor Midnight Rose, because of its black currant and raspberry notes. They both have an absolutely intoxicating smell to them, and make me wish there was a dark fruit alcoholic cocktail or punch that tasted like this smells. This is definitely romantic and intriguing like the description says. And the bottle design and color are very cute, too. Love it.

Can be a little over powering
-03.15.13
I have a little bottle of this from a sampler set I got in Taiwan. This is one of the strongest and least unique Anna Sui scents I've smelled. It can be a little over powering if you use too much, and you can get a headache from this. However, like all the Anna Sui scents I have, it fades to a lighter, more innocuous scent. I didn't buy a bottle because it seemed too generic/american - like I could find another scent available in American that would match it easily, so I didn't want to waste suitcase space on it.
On my skin, at first it smells like cherry blossoms but then it fades to a musky cucumber scent. I know neither of those scents is listed in product description...I'm guessing what I smell at first is the currants and the rose petal, and then it's fading to the musk and the cedar wood.
