My signature scent, a classic elegant love.
I bought this after I found midnight poison, I loved the notes but buying a bottle or sample was not in the cards for me. I found this as a suggested dupe and scored a bottle off of mercari for 18 dollars. I tried it and fell in love. It is so classy and fresh on me. Longevity and Sillage are great in my opinion for the price. To me it is a warmer scent, its cozy but I feel like I could easily wear it year round. It opens very sharp and fruity I definitely pick up on the black currant and patchouli. It is very well blended and nothing seems to overpower other notes, it is super hard to find this quality in scents with base notes of patchouli. As it wears for a couple hours it become less sharp and the vanilla, apricot, and amber become more noticeable. It most definitely is Russian though, think of a beautiful classy and rich Russian woman with long blonde hair in a beautiful mink coat a gun strapped to her thigh covered by the luxurious material of her black dress. Even though I am American I have been told by many I have Ukrainian features (sharper more pronounced bone structure) so when I saw this was produced in Russia I was even more attracted to it. It is a perfect reflection of my personality I think with a sharp intimidating opening and a softer more seductive dry down. I love this so much and I will be buying more bottles as well as experimenting with others from this house. Try it, she doesn't disappoint.

Goed voor dagelijks gebruik/good for everyday use
Prettige geur, ruikt niet goedkoop. Ik heb 50 ml fles uit 2021; heeft mij samen met verzendkosten, minder dan €20 gekost. Mooie bloemen met een vleugje fruit, past bij iedere gelegenheid, kwalitatief gemaakt.
Goed aanwezig, tegelijkertijd niet storend. Zou hem ook voor hogere bedrag aanschaffen .

Pleasant scent, doesn't smell cheap. I have 50ml bottle from 2021; cost me less than €20 together with shipping costs. Beautiful flowers with a hint of fruit, suitable for every occasion, quality made.
Well present, at the same time not disturbing. Would also buy it for a higher amount.

Trust your nose, not your wallet
Review of the pre-reformulation formula. The current (2014) formula is not worth your attention.

Contrary to views expressed by many Russian "ex-patriots", I really like "Russkaya Krasavitza" and I've been wearing this scent for more than 10 years now. Many of my German, French and English friends were eager to find out the name of this perfume, none of them thought is was cheap, of bad quality or a disgrace to the wearer or the company producing it. The scent itself can be described as a cross between Guerlain's Champs d'Elysées and Coco Mademoiselle. "Russian Beauty" is a flowery, semi-oriental fragrance which smells totally lovely. It draws many compliments and is one of the best scents I know when it comes to "value for money". My friends always ask me to bring back this perfume from my trips to Moscow for them.
In my humble opinion, it's a shame that many Russians discard the products made in their own country in a harsh and uncompromising fashion. Since perfume has become a status-symbol and many snobby Russians (and not only them) rather trust their wallet than their nose, to many Russians, a homegrown perfume doesn't look good on the dressing-table. But I bet that "Russian Beauty" would score highly in a blind test - labels and symbols apart!
