Drugstore Secret Tip

If you're looking for a fruity Femme Fatale perfume for little money, you're in the right place. My evening signature scent!

I want to point out that the notes listed on Fragrantica are MUCH more accurate. I can smell patchouli very clearly here, cedarwood less so.

The opening is quite bumpy; for 30 seconds, there's a burst of citrus fruits and pepper. Then come ripe red fruits on a bed of iris and pink-red rose (well blended, not overpowering, not soapy, not grandma-like). I don't really smell jasmine (thankfully), I'm not a fan. The sillage and longevity are remarkable for this bargain price!

For those who made it this far: the perfume is a man magnet. ESPECIALLY paired with Victoria's Secret Diamond Petals (limited edition). I work in a bar with mainly male clientele and have never received so many compliments on my scent… and tips. It's funny that this one stands out so much from my collection of designer, niche, and regular crowd-pleaser perfumes!

The Forbidden Fruit

Her Secret Temptation presents itself like a toxic red berry in its most beautiful form. Shiny - as if it had just been polished by the wicked witch to hand over to Snow White, instead of her beloved apple. A brief glance might remind one of Hypnotic Poison, in terms of the bottle's shape, but the scent is completely different. There is absolutely nothing seductive about this forbidden fruit of a bottle at first glance. It is rather a calm, sweet fragrance that subtly thinks of the wearer as being shielded from lustful gazes. Here, no one turns into a predator, but rather into the nice neighbor next door, who just wants to hold hands.

The bottle feels heavy and robust in hand, and the color is very rich, with which the glass is filled. Definitely solidly made, and the price is appropriate for what the fragrance ultimately offers. However, I wouldn't wear it, as it simply doesn't suit me. But for the calm souls who enjoy floral freshness, it is definitely worth a serious test.

The scent itself somewhat reminds one of warm summer nights in a cove somewhere in Europe. Freshness quickly envelops the warm skin, wrapping itself under the summer garment of the wearer and feels very close to the skin. A warm peach scent lingers in the air, accompanied by a hint of orange blossom, lightly powdered. Some floral notes settle into the fragrance, as if wanting to cuddle with the other components. Jasmine wafts gently around, softly kissed by musk. Thus, the scent lingers on the wearer for a while, gently spreading its mood onto her. The fragrance is not spectacular at all and follows an absolutely straight line in its scent progression. Nothing jumps out, and nothing surprises.

However, it becomes a bit vanillic towards the heart - the powdery notes recede, but a hint of sandalwood can be faintly perceived. The freshness has slightly faded, so the scent presents itself as somewhat lukewarm. After not even four hours, everything is over; only a calm, vanillic, slightly sweet scent lingers in the air - it could have lasted a bit longer, as the perfume is absolutely not intrusive, but solidly designed, even if it is not the best of the best. At this price, one truly cannot expect more.

It is not the forbidden fruit, but it is enough to enjoy the evening leisurely in the warm summer night. For the cold season, it is definitely not suitable, as it would quickly be swallowed by the wind.
