Paco Rabanne Crazy Me

I was looking for fragrances with wasabi as a note. The wasabi as a top note in Crazy Me is not the nose-stinging wasabi one would get from a sushi shop. It's closer to real wasabi, softer, grassier, more floral. The top is followed by a yellow haze of mimosa. It's powdery and pollen-like. The mimosa stays throughout the journey almost to the end. Mid way through, I catch a note not listed, something nutty like sesame, but too faint to pinpoint. This leans more feminine. Out of all of the purchases I have made and sampled over the years, this was the biggest pleasant surprise of them all.
