Has my search come to an end?

I am on the hunt for a fragrance that smells like Schauma 7-Herbs. In the reviews here, I also read that this perfume is supposed to smell like that. Because of this, I bought it blindly, especially since it hasn't been criticized and is very affordable.

When I first got the scent, I was initially disappointed. No, it doesn't smell identical to the shampoo. That's why my initial rating wasn't very high, but fortunately, it can be corrected. I've spent a few days getting to know this scent and I must say it has something very unique about it, something special - especially for such an inexpensive perfume! Below, I wrote in a comment that the scent "doesn't blow me away." Okay, I need to correct that, or rather elaborate. It doesn't blow me away because it doesn't smell bad! It was my disappointment because it doesn't smell identical. In the meantime, it does blow me away, and in a positive sense: I love the scent!

It doesn't smell exactly like Schauma 7-Herbs. I made a direct comparison, and I must say, this perfume actually comes off even better for me now! They are clearly sibling scents, without needing to be seen as a "dupe." The smell of the shampoo is not as complex as this perfume, even though the perfume doesn't undergo any significant scent changes over time. Thank goodness for that, because I am blissful with this scent!

I would describe the scent as fresh, green, soft, and leaning towards powdery/creamy, although I can't yet pin down the latter precisely. I need to test it further. It is very suitable for the currently warm days, as it doesn't smell too heavy, a lovely summer perfume.

What I can say is that it smells good for everyday wear, not intrusive with normal dosing, and the longevity is quite okay at about 5 hours directly on the skin.

The bottle is in the classic Miro style and nothing special, although it does have a few embellishments. It certainly won't be my last Miro fragrance, so I find it very unfortunate that many bottles look similar, especially since the writing comes off, thanks to creamed (?) hands! How am I supposed to distinguish the perfumes later, aside from the cap and without smelling each bottle!? The functionality is otherwise given, and I have seen much worse bottles. In any case, I store my perfumes in the dark and don't need fancy and representative bottles, but I also won't say no to them.

For me, it is probably the better Schauma 7-Herbs scent, and I believe the bottle will be empty very quickly for me. Thank you, Miro!

Blauemaus, yes, dealing with sensitivities is tricky. Thankfully, perfumes aren't much of a problem for me, but a lot of other cosmetics are. If necessary, I can also spray the perfume on my clothes, but fingers crossed!

I really like it too and have had it in my collection for ages. Plus, I can wear it without any issues. That doesn’t happen often, especially these days.
