When Neroli is screaming instead of singing
So...this is an intense, somewhat cloying, candied neroli bomb that leans heavily into the bready and syrupy facets of the note, mixed in with the specific flower's soapy character. Found it reminiscent of Memo’s Sintra and its many smell-alikes like LDBS, but without really any unique twist to truly set it apart. It feels like yet another sweet neroli that's meant to be marketable. The scent was bordering on that of a very sweet shower gel.

Beyond that, the sweetness was somewhat headache-inducing to me, and while the fragrance is undeniably powerful, it feels one-dimensional, offering little beyond sheer intensity. Comparatively, Oranger Sirocco is much more refined and enjoyable, with a better balance of elements.

So, overall, this is not for me. It was an overbearing experience that I couldn’t wait to wash off. Strength alone doesn’t make a fragrance compelling, and this extrait proves that point all too well. But, I suppose it's a scent someone else might enjoy anyways

An outstanding pistachio gourmand with few parallels.
Atelier Materi was founded in 2019 by Veronique Le Bihan, using the same organizing principles as Frederic Malle. She supplies the vision behind each perfume, and individual perfumers crystallize this idea into a perfume. The house “draws its inspiration from the raw beauty of materials and the meticulous gestures that transform them”, according to their website. This sort of florid marketing language that fills their website does not resonate with me, though they make good perfumes. Neroli Hasbaya does not evoke any raw beauty of materials, but it is still a beautiful perfume. Their bottles are lovely works of art that need to be appreciated separately. This review is based on a full bottle of Neroli Hasbaya, which comes in the extrait de parfum strength. The perfumer behind Neroli Hasbaya is Céline Perdriel, who has created many other perfumes for Atelier Materi.

The notes listed by Atelier Matieri are neroli, bitter almond, pistachio, orange blossom, damascene rose, musk, Peruvian balsam and white sandalwood. This matches what is listed on Parfumo. The opening notes are neroli, bitter almond and pistachio, with pistachio leading the way. The complexity of the top notes is very beautiful, as all three notes are expertly blended. The almond and pistachio also establish Neroli Hasbaya as a nutty gourmand, pulling it away from any citrus identity. The orange blossom and rose come up soon after, creating the nostalgia for a Middle Eastern dessert. The base notes are also fantastic, a seamless blend of musk, Peruvian balsam and sandalwood. The middle notes of orange blossom and rose are still very much alive in the end. As every note is long-lasting in Neroli Hasbaya, the olfactory progression is not very pronounced.

Peru Balsam is an ingredient that I am not familiar with. Peru balsam comes from Myroxylon balsamum, a tree endemic to El Salvador, despite its name. According to internet sources, this balsam smells like vanilla and cinnamon but with some bitter nuances. There is a mild note Neroli Hasbaya in the end that resembles vanilla and cinnamon, which may be the Peru Balsam. Peru Balsam is interesting because it is a potent allergen and is used as a marker from perfume allergy. Half of the individuals allergic to perfumes will test positive in a Peru balsam patch test. Not surprisingly, IFRA has banned the use of raw Peru Balsam in perfumes.

The performance of Neroli Hasbaya is legendary! Few perfumes in my collection last this long on my skin. Even twelve hours later, I can smell the floral notes, musk and sandalwood on me. It projects very well for a long time, so you must be careful when and where you wear this. I wouldn’t recommend this as a work perfume as it is a lovely gourmand with great performance and longevity.

Neroli Hasbaya does not pretend to be avant-garde, but it is still a masterpiece, nonetheless. I recommend it without any hesitation, if you can afford it. It is particularly attractive for those who love almond-pistachio gourmand fragrances. I paid $210 for a 50 ml bottle from Jovoy, but you may be able to get one cheaper at US discounters.

A pairing made of nuts and white flowers
No citrus fruits are mentioned in the top notes, but there is definitely a tinge of bright citrus in the top. Could be the neroli that's on the fresh, floral side of things, lending a citrusy accord to the scent. Nuts are almost gourmand-like, grounded, creamy and earthy: very realistic! I'm just not overall down with the pairing of nuts and florals. As it moves on, I start getting a powdery, soapy orange blossom, with a sweet and carnal rose note. It becomes very "perfumey" on my skin, like a vintage fragrance from the '80s (?). It also remains fresh along the way. Drydown is slightly woody, but also warm and musky. It finishes off smelling soapy and something along the lines of your-skin-but-better.

Overall it's a nice fragrance, although the beginning can be a bit overwhelming. It has nice longevity on my skin and had great projection at the beginning until it started settling on my skin. Becomes a bit more palatable and gentle as it lives on. Overall, I don't have any problem with the fragrance, but I'm just not the girl for a nut / floral pairing: it's not something I enjoy smelling which is why I won't be going for a full bottle.

Bijou olfactif
Un bijou olfactif, encore faut il aimer les parfums pâtissiers / sucrés et opulents...
Je lui trouve une aura commune à atlas garden de YSL.
C'est l'odeur du Baklava, riche, dense, sucré mais avec une élégance certaines. Ils sont peu de parfums à pouvoir attraper mon cœur comme cela sans avoir cette âme 'arôme pour gateau', Neroli hasbaya en fait parti. Je le préfère en hiver, il m'enveloppe dans un doux cocon gourmand

Best warm-vanilla dry down
If the scent weren't too sweet and too strong for a delicate floral-fresh girl like me, it would be a solid 10. The dry down is the coziest, warmest, and deepest vanilla scent ever, even though no vanilla is listed. Wear it in the evening for a date and you'll still smell irresistibly delicious in the morning.
It starts as a sweet gourmand fragrance with sweet orange blossom, pistachio, and a hint of bitter almond. Rose and warm sandalwood follow. Despite the sweetness, it remains warm and not too dense, as long as you don't overspray.
The Peru balsam is a dream, with deep dark sweet vanilla tones; it smells extremely high-quality.
For anyone interested: test it for 24 hours and only then evaluate it. By the way, the test strip from the first test still smelled faintly after 2 weeks.
The 50ml bottle lasts a lifetime since one spray is enough. You can't perceive the notes otherwise because the perfume is extremely potent.
The bottle is beautiful, deep blue like a vintage ink pot, and the spray head dispenses wonderfully.

Addendum: the bottle has finally made its way to me thanks to the great community here, and even in summer, when sprayed carefully, it’s a dream. (Worn outside on a summer evening, not to be taken to the office at 30 degrees plus)
You definitely need to test it multiple times, as it knocks you out the first time, but once it grabs you, it’s forever. I have also corrected my rating from 8.5 upwards.

More blossom orange than neroli but I will say that I’m really in love with fragrance. It’s a gourmand made with sobriety and good sillage

Very bold neroli scent. Bold and sweet, I woudl say. I mean, not a citrus aspect of it, more of a gourmand side of neroli.
Extreme duration!

Initially interesting. Mostly creamy neroli + very nutty gourmand pistachio. The pistachio fades (but doesn't dissapear) within minutes.

Earthy, nutty pistachio and almond paired with a floral and fresh neroli. Unusual but ends up becoming a powdery, floral scent in the end.

Too sweet neroli pistachio - good but unlike with other neroli scents I got tired from this one and by evening I knew it wasn't for me

The blend is what matters! Nutty, bitter Neroli veil. Subtle floral heart ends in a fine and calm base. Amazing new territory!

Neroli and chocolate create a highly interesting symbiosis that gives me a wonderfully relaxing spa feeling. Absolutely extraordinary.

Strong scent.
A bit too heavy.
Sweet nut meets indolic neroli.
