"No silly wand-waving and childish sorcery here!"
Severus Snape himself certainly did not concoct this brew, for him the ability to create potions was the art "of how to bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses, to brew glory and fame in a cauldron, how to bottle fame and even how to cork death."
You won't encounter corked death when applying "Courage | Harry Potter," but we are also miles away from Felix Felicis.

Courage starts dark, fruity, bitter, and simultaneously quite sweet, with floral notes joining in. It’s a somewhat heavy fragrance, but not exclusively mixed for the evening. In my opinion, suitable venues would primarily be clubs and parties, but everyday wear is also conceivable.
The floral aspect becomes stronger over time, but unfortunately has a slightly cheap quality to it. This dampens the positive first impression.

The Potter fragrance starts with good sillage, which, however, begins to fade after just 1½ hours. Despite the EdP concentration, this should not come as a surprise at this price point. The magic lasts for 5 hours, then it’s over.
The bottle is, like its sister "Passion | Harry Potter," inspired by an advertisement from the 6th film in the series. A very nice Easter egg, along with its visual appeal. Unfortunately, the actually great design is ruined by the extremely cheap execution. Plastic cap, which is far too loose, and then the poorly applied ribbons - it almost feels like a bad fake.

Overall, it is difficult to give this cheap mass product an adequate rating. Although the scent itself can never deny its cheap origins, it is quite pleasant and does its job surprisingly well - if you overlook the weak performance.
The competition is fierce, so it’s more for Potter fans. Snape, in any case, would not lift a finger for this brew.

round and harmonious
in contrast to the Courage scent, this one is more mature and harmonious. Here too, the bottle corresponds to the movie poster and is very well done. The fragrance starts with bergamot and apple and is beautifully rounded off in the base note with vanilla and sandalwood. The color red fits the scent well; I think that all 4 fragrances cover all facets of the HP world.

Uninspired floral-fruity something
If you expect Dramione and get film-Hinny:
Blood-red packaging, made of velvet, not so fine
Courage promises you to be something strong
Under the surface - please forgive -
There is hardly more than superficiality
Go to the basement and get a jar of pickled berries
You might want to consume it sweetened right away
Uneven notes of red sour fruits waft around you
The tea is cold
You leave the house
Magic is a kingdom where no one dies
Pick a few roses by the roadside
They prick you lightly in your hand
You smell well-groomed, you smell quite pleasant
Uninspired
Neither the wizard nor the show
The magic in between
Gryffindor goes elsewhere
The magic is an illusion
Doesn't get you to your goal
And yet magic is a kingdom where no one dies.

Top tier will probably not come from this work, yet the cash cow No. 7695431 of the Wizarding World makes its friendly tones known. If it didn't say Harry Potter on it, one would expect the red velvet packaging among the discount items of German drugstores, but no. Harry Potter fans have money - and are willing to spend it.
Bravery is sought in vain here, they rely on an all-around popular fruity-floral with corresponding sweetness, following the motto 'if it doesn't taste good, it just hasn't been sweetened enough.' The first impression of pricking disharmony fades quite quickly - by the way, it fleetingly reminds one of the pink one from Bruno Banani Pure Woman Eau de Parfum - and what remains is a well-groomed hint of generic something. A little rose here, a bit more sugar there. Vanilla? Pah, who needs vanilla, tralalalala.
Here, mainly the name is paid for - and for the packaging, because it is indeed quite elaborate and sweetly done, like a bro from Felix Felicis (with a different cap) and its coloring screams Gryffindor's princess, Manacled-Hermione with a dragon as a Patronus.
By the way (addendum): The bottle looks SUSPICIOUSLY like the one from a scene in the first few minutes of 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,' when Albus Dumbledore stands in front of an advertisement for the Muggle perfume 'Magic Divine.' At least someone did their homework on the bottle design, but unfortunately only there.
And in the end, you get Ginny, who tries to stuff cookies into her crush's mouth while her brother sits next to her, or ties his shoes. Because the Chosen One is perhaps more of a Velcro type.
At least this relationship lasts. In this case, a whole day.

Inspiration and references today came from SenLinYu (Mancled) and Edna St. Vincent Millay (Childhood is the Kingdom where nobody dies) - because if Tshajbukoshka were really honest, she would admit that Tom Felton will probably be over Harry Potter long before her, if we ever see that day.

As a subtle fruity floral, it doesn't bother and already stands out among various maltol-infused sugary scents.

More floral and serious than the one in pink, but just as uninteresting and flat. Unfortunately, I have to scrub it off; I'd rather make it disappear.

Average drugstore scent for female witches: fruity opening, later rose with manageable sweetness and reduced sillage.

I'm pleasantly surprised. No flat synthetic notes. Well done; fresh, sweet, fruity, and great for the target audience.

Not a big deal
More like a little sweet treat for younger ones, and that's fine
Just not special and no wow effect

Fresh white flower-apple combo, very close to the skin. Totally fine for a drugstore scent.

Aqua di Gioia with rose-berry compote. I've smelled much worse in the designer range.

It smells just like those colored hair sprays you get for Carnival.

My brain associates it with a super synthetic cherry (maybe because of the color?) that then dries down very bland on the skin.
