Skadi Pana Dora 2025

I was a little surprised when the first opinions about the fragrance arrived and a generally negative trend about the fragrance was established. From my point of view, it is the weakest Pana Dora fragrance I have tested so far, but I was also a huge fan of the other fragrances. I think it's a good fragrance that doesn't deserve a below-average rating. Everyone has their own opinion, I just hope that people don't go with the flow here.

And now to the fragrance itself:

The first impressions are quite confusing. You notice incense here, apple there and the exciting hazelnut notes elsewhere. All wonderful on their own, but the combination tends to confuse rather than harmonize. The top notes evaporate relatively quickly, leaving only traces of hazelnut and incense.
The fragrance then balances itself out and the rose takes over, accompanied by the smoothing ambrette. The fragrance is extremely exciting here and, in my opinion, has the potential to become a signature fragrance for both men and women.
The fragrance ends softly with gentle vanilla.

I can well imagine that the fragrance can be evaluated quite differently in the fall and winter, on cold and mild days. It is a little too heavy for summer.
The sillage and longevity are also relatively manageable. After about 5 hours, only a slight trace is perceptible.

For me, it remains a well-rounded, good fragrance that suits Pana Dora. It won't become my favorite, but I'm sure it will find its fans.

... fragrance pyramid, I imagined an exciting scent. But I was disappointed here by a brand that actually has interesting fragrances. For a niche perfume, it is simply too boring for me personally. I also see nothing when I close my eyes. Now, please don’t get me wrong, this perfume is not bad per se, but simply boring for such a brand. It could have been a designer scent or even a drugstore fragrance.

Upon applying this scent, you first get something citrusy and fruity. Then, a nutty note joins in that lingers for a long time. Floral accords come into play, and above all, the rose is distinctly noticeable; it becomes a bit cold, and that’s it. I don’t perceive anything smoky, mossy, or even resinous.

The longevity and sillage are good.

Here we have a unisex fragrance that is exactly that. This scent can be worn from around 21 years and is open to all ages above that. It is suitable for the whole year. It can be worn during the day at the office, at lunch, while shopping, or simply with friends and acquaintances in a café, just as much as in the evening in a pub, a club, a bar, or even for a dinner for two.

If you enjoy a citrusy, fruity, nutty, floral, cold rose scent, this is the right choice for you. Personally, I find the price for this excessive. But as always, please try it out and decide for yourself.
