Orchid & vanilla

I have blind bought this fragance because i have seen a very good offer and i felt atracred for his notes and i dont regret for this. It is a very nice fragance. The start is powerful. It is very noticeble the tangerine and the Peach, whichgives a fruity vibe to the fragance, but overall the coconut and the medicinal asoect of the oud Woody. This is not the tipical oud fragance. It has some similarities with the tipical rose/oud fragance, but changing the rose for the orchid, which vives yo the fragance a hint of elegante and sweetness , but the dry down is totally different. The most noticeble notes on the deydown are for me the orchid and the vanilla. It has some similarities yo me with orchidee vanille by van cleef & aroels. The more to the dry down It goes, the more subtle and floral It becones. The oud get Lost to the deydown and It takes much more importante the orchid. It is an easy wearing fragance. The longevity is good but the performance moderate. In the opening the sillage is strong but un the deydown much softer. For me is suitable for any swason, better for a daily use Than evening and perfect as an Office scent. Totally unisex but different than any men scents.

Like a noble fruity-floral body lotion

Mancera is one of those brands that exclusively releases good fragrances for me. Here at Parfumo, the brand is only moderately rated by many, but I really like them. I have already tested many, and there hasn't been one that didn't appeal to me. I don't own any yet, but that will surely change. There have been many releases, and there should be something for everyone and every target group. From classic to modern. Modern fragrances dominate since it is a brand that has been bringing scents to the market for just over 10 years.

The Aoud line includes 9 fragrances. I have already tested some of them and found them good. The Aoud Blue Notes is also a truly good companion and candidate for purchase.
I tested this Aoud Orchid a few months ago. It intrigued me with its pleasant pyramid: coconut, peach, mandarin, vanilla, orchid wrapped in the Aoud concept. I thought to myself, this must fit. I was right. A wonderful scent, although it is more for women.
In order: It starts fresh-fruity-creamy in the opening. Peach and a creamy coconut note kick off. The coconut doesn't stand out on its own and blends well with the fruits. Mandarin provides a nice citrus-fruity note and keeps it a bit lighter. Later, it becomes significantly more floral due to the orchid, but retains that wonderful creamy touch. Throughout its duration, this fragrance reminds me of a noble creamy body lotion, thus providing a very well-groomed touch. The base is woody with a slight oriental touch. As Aoud is in the title, it should be the main player alongside the orchid. However, it remains rather in the background. Otherwise, the base is very pleasant with beautiful sweet-soft notes.
Overall, a great well-groomed fragrance, especially for everyday wear. Also, in terms of performance, it is a great everyday scent. Always well noticeable but never too overpowering. Those who like this well-groomed creamy touch might find it here. Those who prefer strong sillage will be disappointed.
As I said: I see it more for women, but I like unisex fragrances since everyone should be free to express their scent preferences. It is not completely unwearable for men, but it should match the type.

A fragrance that should actually find few enemies. In terms of price, Mancera is also fair, just above designer prices. Specifically for women, I recommend this fragrance.

This fragrance also deserves a fair comment

Currently, fruity fragrances are very popular. I'm surprised that "Aoud Orchid" by Mancera hasn't received a comment yet.
If you enjoy fruity scents but definitely don't want to smell like a walking, overly sweet synthetic fruit gummy, "Aoud Orchid" offers a serious alternative.
At the start, I smell coconut and moderately sour, almost authentically fresh fruits. Unfortunately, the blend is so indistinct that I would have suspected osmanthus. But since it has a slightly aquatic scent, my guess is correct that mandarin is part of the fragrance play of "Aoud Orchid." Calone (or similar), the note responsible for the aquatic accord, not only remains throughout the entire duration but also intensifies in the base.
With the oud-like woody note, which occasionally has a tiny hint of sweat, the name "Aoud Orchid" becomes understandable. But no "worries," it's not an animalistic stinky oud, but an oud that smells of light wood, along with something peppery.
Up to that point, "Aoud Orchid" is still a straw-like scent, not very sweet. I can't perceive any flowers at all initially. As it develops, "Aoud Orchid" gains a delicate sweetness through vanilla and musk, like a dusting of powdered sugar over a fruit cup. Nevertheless, the green, light oud-like wood remains as a base note. If "Aoud Vanille" were to stay like this, I could say: A perfect fruity fragrance. Unfortunately, a note reminiscent of tuberose slowly emerges, which I often perceive as "soured dishcloth." It could also be gardenia. Perhaps the listed orchid is meant. I've never been able to smell an orchid that smells like flowers.
In summary, it can still be said that "Aoud Orchid" is a serious quality fruity fragrance. However, "Aoud Orchid" is not unique. I have already tested similar fruity fragrances.

A good surprise. Nice happy and a little bit too feminine release. I like it though. Subtle but it lasts a long long time

Sweet and floral scent, nice and for me unisex. Good performance although It is a very subtle fragance. Better for daily use or for working

Peach kicks off really well.
Floral sunscreen follows,
with a woody musk base.
That's it.

Amazingly beautiful, floral-fresh, sunscreen-like women's fragrance, smells clean-creamy without cloying or overloaded (Mancera) notes! Good!

If you've ever dealt with green moldy mandarins and enjoyed getting rid of them, you're in the right place.

Very fruity peach scent, with a slightly crunchy/spicy core.
Leans more towards the feminine side.
I really like it.

Phew, this combo really doesn't work for me. Coconut-fruit cocktail served in a wooden cup and garnished with sweet flowers. Unfortunately, it lasts well on me.
