Rush little sister

To me this is Gucci Rush little sister.
A nauseating smell. lots of tuberose and a artificial smell. Not my kind of scent.

Care fragrance à la Chypre?

Fran has already commented on the fragrance so well and accurately (see below) that I just want to add a touch of mustard: Anything else would be pure repetition.

For me, "An´na" smells like high-quality, delicate care: Not necessarily distinctly creamy, but like good fruity-floral care. Without knowing Annayaké's care products, I can imagine that this is the specific Annayaké care fragrance (experts may correct me if I'm wrong).

The combination of filigree delicacy and clear recognizability is very pleasant: Here it is evident that not everything that is delicate and reserved has to be arbitrary. Not at all! "An´na" is not forgotten: One remembers a well-measured berry tartness combined with very understated floral notes and a beautiful high-end care scent. All this, mind you, without any trace of sweetness.

To be honest, I am a bit puzzled: I understand that there are fruity chypres. However, that delicate care scents can also be found in the chypre realm (chypre in the narrower sense, not just "unsweet"!), is new to me. But I also don’t know much about chypres, so I hope our chypre queen Medusa will say a word about "An´na".

All in all, a beautiful, subtle, and high-quality fragrance that is very close to the skin but lasts quite solidly.

A heartfelt thank you to Fran for this wonderful sample (hooked again!)! "An´na" could be worn by me around the clock for weeks without bothering me or missing anything: It surprises me that only one Parfumo has this scent in their collection! Maybe I should do something about that (hihihi)?

Old Love in a New Outfit

Even if I hadn't read beforehand that there is a similarity to Gucci's Rush, I would have noticed it with the first spray. For me, the resemblance is truly more than astonishing. An'nna is perhaps a little bit sweeter and fruitier.

The fragrance starts fruity with a strong tuberose note that carries through to the end, which is exactly what I love about Gucci's "Rush" as well. The scent doesn't develop much; the top and heart notes are identical for me. In the base, it becomes a little warmer and spicier.

I find An'na to be a warm, slightly spicy, oriental-scented, and quite sweet fragrance. In the other comments, it was mentioned that there is no sweetness present. However, I clearly perceive a sweetness, not unpleasant and not overwhelming, but a warm, noble sweetness that the fragrance, in my opinion, needs.

The longevity is incredibly good for me, as is the sillage. And that rarely happens with my skin, which tends to absorb fragrances quite well.

Rush-er Comment

I know you! I'm racking my brain, but I can't figure it out. At some point, later, tonight at 4, I'll have the epiphany. But for now, I have to describe you without having a reference at hand.

In fact, at the beginning, you are still disguised; I don't recognize any similarity to another fragrance. The mandarin is incredibly fruity and zesty, almost beautifully tart, offering a yellow-orange color spectacle, quite different from what your packaging and later scent progression truthfully promise in magenta.
The blackcurrant joins in, and you become a bit more austere; your fruitiness darkens, your zest transforms into a slight chypre direction, a light tartness remains and fits excellently.

After a while, your heart reveals itself, and by now, I know you from much earlier. I’ll figure it out... Jasmine, rose, and tuberose appear radiantly beautiful, with none of the floral heart ladies taking the lead, not even the usually intrusive tuberose. And that’s somehow also due to the coriander, which adds a distinctly dull spiciness here that harmonizes deliciously with the floral notes and offers a distinctive twist (though, I still need to clarify the whole "distinctive" part...). But the heart note is captivating, sensual, feminine, and special. It lingers long before a gentle base of amber and patchouli joins in. The amber is soft and bright, the patchouli appropriately mild. No oriental heaviness (dis)rupts the strangely floating yet powerful core made of dull-powdery coriander flowers, which, despite all the spiciness, somehow seem red, as a tiny bit of fruitiness from the opening is preserved.

Chypre-fruity-floral, says the manufacturer. And I'm still pondering. Let me take a quick look in my "Had-it Collection," maybe it will help.
1 minute later.
Ha! It HAS helped. AN'NA has a well-known predecessor, one that has a fruity opening, rose, jasmine, and coriander in the heart, as well as a light patchouli base. Ta-da: Gucci Rush, also a Chypre Fruity. AN'NA is a zestier variant, rosier, with a fruitiness that lasts a bit longer, but the similarity is indeed astonishing. I like both; they are quirky and unusual compositions, striking and very wearable. And the prettier bottle is probably AN'NA.

another floral fruity scent

When I received a sample, it was clear I had to have it. A beautiful floral, slightly powdery scent, with the tuberose coming through very strongly. Among the fruits, you can mostly smell the blackcurrant. I was amazed at how long this fragrance lasts (from early morning until late at night) - reapplying is really not necessary.
