Quizás, Quizás, Quizás Pasión Loewe 2011

The original from Quizás, Quizás, Quizás is well-known to me - at least as an EdT - because I once owned a 50ml bottle of it. However, I used the fragrance quite rarely; somehow it didn’t quite fit me. It was too harsh and too "masculine" to be my scent.

Quizás, Quizás, Quizás Pasión is the daughter and shows corresponding facets.

In the opening, the berry fruits dominate, and it truly smells just like a good champagne with cassis - a Kir Royal! Very juicy, berry-like, fresh, and natural. A real appetizer that makes your mouth water.

Despite the flowers, it doesn’t become cloyingly floral in the heart note. The flowers cleverly blend with the berries, giving the fragrance a very nice and very wearable accord. Lively, youthful, passionate, and sparkling.

Quite early on, an animalistic note emerges and "moves" the fragrance in the background. I would have guessed musk, although amber is mentioned here in the pyramid.

Interestingly, the animalistic aspect disappears in the base; on the contrary, it is quite dry, only very faintly sweet, and shows a slightly green bitterness, underlined by fruity berry notes. Cashmere wood seems to be used rather sparingly here, as the base does show a certain woody note, reminiscent of sandalwood, but lacks the cloying sweetness of cashmere wood.

Quizás, Quizás, Quizás Pasión is comparable to Flowerbomb EdT but significantly less sweet and clearly fruitier than that. Euphoria and Forbidden Euphoria also go in this direction. Nevertheless, Quizás, Quizás, Quizás Pasión has something unique, more natural, happier, and less sweet-sticky than its two competitors.

A very refreshing and lively everyday scent that is wearable for young people of any gender.
