Review: Solange Cosmic

Solange Azagury-Partridge has launched her second fragrance, Cosmic. Here's a description from Cosmetics International:
Like the jeweler's first fragrance, Cosmic was developed with the help of perfumer Lyn Harris of Miller Harris. The modern chypre combines a sweet candy accord with top notes of bergamot, aldehydes and galbanum, a heart of rose, jasmine absolute and iris absolute, and a dry-down of patchouli, vetiver, labdanum absolute, opoponax, myrrh and vanilla.
Oh my god! Hello, scrubber. This is one of the worst things I've smelled in a while. It's like baby powder that's gone sour and the dry down shifts further from sweet and more toward sour. I'm sure the artificial grape-flavored cotton candy smell is for someone, but in the immortal words of Bob Dylan, it ain't me, babe. 
Now I'm off to the bathroom to get to scrubbin'.
