The Empress' Kiss Mystikum 2024

This perfume is my favourite one out of the entire collection because it has a light scent of jasmines that gives the entire perfume a mature and unique smell. This perfume truly recreates the scene of botanical gardens filled to the brim with different kinds of flowers. The smell has a slight sour tinge to it that makes it even better. The jasmine mixed with the sour scent creates a delicate smell for the overall perfume.

I was very surprised by how low the rating of the fragrance is when I looked it up on Parfumo.
The scent is fruity, but not overly sweet-fruity; rather, it is dark and velvety, almost liqueur-like. The flowers are like a light enveloping layer, with the clove being subtle yet present, adding a spiciness to the fragrance.

However, the true strength lies in the depth: Oud gives the fragrance foundation and character. It grounds the light sweetness, making it more mature and sensual.
Vanilla, tonka bean, and amber provide warmth. Musk and the woods make the fragrance almost soft.

Yes, it is somewhat synthetic, but really very, very well done!

The Empress' Kiss is a scent that will definitely divide opinions, that's for sure.
But for those like me who appreciate this kind of "clean" fragrances, there could be a lot to enjoy here.
It smells like a fruity, spicy soap...
The rose geranium and saffron come through very strongly. I find it to be a very intriguing and wonderful scent.
Simply feminine and quite mysterious!!!
