Gaya Anfas 2018

I received my sample of Gaya today around 11 o'clock. I was really looking forward to this fragrance, as I am generally very interested in fruity scents. Right off the bat: Gaya is indeed very fruity, but in a different way than Kirké, Erba Pura, and Orza.

Now I unfortunately have to start with the negative. Gaya is really exhausting for me to wear; the combination of these fruits with milk, licorice, and oud I find somehow unbearable. It truly tires me to wear Gaya. The scent has something of gummy bears and licorice dissolved in alcohol. Personally, I do not want to smell like that. I can smell the pear and mango well, which I quite like, but everything else just does not work for me at all. Gaya is truly the most exhausting perfume I have encountered in a long time. I don't know if you can relate to these associations of mine, but for me, Gaya was therefore a complete flop. A perfume that I cannot wear is unfortunately not interesting to me.

The quality is of course absolutely top-notch, even if I do not like the scent. The longevity is clearly over 10 hours with a very strong sillage.
