Smell like an Arabian princess..
A phrase that is (unfortunately) often used on social media, but is (almost) appropriate here.

Scheherazade appears in a delicate dress. In the foreground, this red, slightly tart mandarin, paired, at least on my skin, with a very perceptible apricot (or apricot, as the case may be). It screams fruit juice on paper, but the pepper gives it a very interesting twist, which isn't actually that fruity at all.

For all those who shy away from oud: don't worry, it's practically non-existent. I had more of a soft sandalwood note in Dry Down.

All in all, a spring-like (summery?) fragrance that you have to get to grips with once more to get to know all its facets. For me, it's actually the perfect candidate for a leftover bottle in my collection

Scheherazade by Bortnikoff

3rd collaboration between these 2 talented people, @rbalkris and @bortnikoffparfum and I love all three for sure.

Let's start with a major question that am getting from people, is it similar to Sayat Nova? Based on my personal humble opinion, no, it's not even close to Sayat Nova by any means.

Scheherazade is all natural and yet, it lasts more than 8 hours with a magnificent scent bubble around you. It's not loud or abrasive since it has Oud at the base but surprisingly very uplifting, specifically in this scorching heat.

From the first spray when you get that juicy bergamot, savoury red mandarin and black current which open up in different facets. Starting from green, sulphurous, fruity, a little woody, liquorous, vinous, bitter, balsamic. Which keeps the fragrance very balanced and unisex.

The heart has apricot, I love apricot the fruit and after Sayat Nova, I love apricot as a smell in perfume so this one does have Apricot but as I said, not similar to Sayat Nova, as this one is more uplifting, with green grass vibe thanks to pepper which works wonder with apricot and black current is still present which has evolve to bitter and balsamic hence the fragrance is never over sweet for me.

The dry down is very woody thanks to cedar and Oud which is not skanky but very smooth and delicate thanks to creamy sandalwood. Overall, it's a fragrance which everyone would love and would like to wear. It's not loud, not synthetic for sure hence don't expect super monsterous projection but a subtle scent bubble which lasted more than 8 hours on me and am more than happy.

Now don't be a cry baby because you can't handle the truth and if you want loud fragrances buy blunts spray (satire for one favorite person, not so much)

A weird greenish, nettle-like opening. The base is woody, dry. Good, but not my favorite style of composition.

usual quality of the brand but a formula too close to the others. Unfortunately it's not worth a bottle. Amber, syrupy with a sweet vanilla
