Best Tobacco Vanille dupe
I love Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum as most people do, but that price point.. nuh-uh. This offers the same charm and warmth at a more available price.

Lingering creamy smell of the spices, especially clove, big burst of boozy vanilla note which I think comes from the combination of the honey note, vanilla and the resins, to me it smells like rum. All of that with a prominent enough tobacco note and noticeable dried fruits.
Anything you'd want from Tobacco Vanille at a cheaper price without sacrificing much on the quality, with a very few tweaks.

Very nice scent if you like the said DNA, not synthetic smelling at all, this is the only scent from this house that was worth my time.

Boring release
I tend to like Morillas' creations, and love several of Bvlgari's releases but this? I was excited to try it since I'm a sucker for woody fragrances but damn, when was the last time Alberto visited the woods??

Let me start off by saying that this isn't anywhere near a WOOD essence, more like a generic, money-grab, blue fragrance release. It starts off very sweet and synthetic pretty much like any other scent of this kind, shampoo-ish. That stays until the very end it is a very linear scent until it somewhat becomes a skin scent that smells of clean musk. That's it.
They could've done much better stuff with this idea. Big pass.

Iconic must-try for everyone.
When you start this fragrance hobby and you go on Youtube, you're automatically bombarded with "everyday fragrances". This, in my opinion is one of the best out there.

This doesn't need much introduction, everyone has already tried it (and if not I urge you to) and for a very good reason.
Ellena truly blessed the earth with this fragrance. Woods, prominent vetiver but not the annoyingly strong one. Spices that compliment each element of this scent and the sweet orange/grapefruit peel. Effortless and pretty simple combination yet its greatness is undeniable.

TDH is one of my fav lines of fragrance, I do prefer Terre d'Hermès Eau Givrée but this is just its transition season predecessor. I don't have much else to say but how good it is, everyone should try it regardless of your gender, I find myself wearing it for late summer-autumn outings and for school and my urge to get at least a small bottle is getting bigger and bigger.
Lovely stuff!

Acquired taste spring freshie
When I first tried it, it reminded me heavily of unripe bananas can't lie about that. But as my taste grew over time I got back to this and I have to say im glad I gave it a 2nd try.

Yes, unripe bananas to the untrained and new nose, but once you let it dry and thrive it becomes this clean, polished almost - green, herbal and metallic freshie that ive learned to appreciate. Once you get over the opening it's like heaven.
I really enjoy it, I like it more than H24 Eau de Toilette but H24 Herbes Vives is still better than this for me.

A very good pick for the office or running errands in spring when it's not too hot yet (if you like metallic and green scents) , better pick than most "blue" scents nowadays, give it a try and LET. IT. DRY.

Short-lived fun
Like any Margiela fragrances in my opinion, they are overrated. I was very excited to try one of the most popular summer cocktails as a scent, only for it to disappoint after like 10 minutes.

It starts off very promising, truly like an Aperol Spritz, bitter with zingy orange rind, a little spicy and earthy. But after it fades it just becomes this generic orangey-patchouli thing that im not into, the dry down just smells like Orange x Santal to me which I find okay but boring, its nice but nothing new or exciting. If you look at it from another POV though it smells a little like earl grey with a punch of lemon and orange which is fine. Not worth my money though.
