I bought Réjouissance (translated as jubilation) because of the following, different description and notes:
Fruity, sweet, warm spicy, vanilla.
The fragrance pyramid particularly appealed to me because of the spicy notes and plum.
Head: spicy notes, saffron
Heart: plum, lily
Base: date, vanilla

I am split on saffron and lily smells from heavenly to wee-wee

I've been looking for THE plum fragrance for me for a long time.
My Plum in Cognac from scents of wood is hopefully still "maturing" (for the story, see statement).
I have now purchased this Jubel relatively cheaply and am quite surprised by the fragrance in real life.

For me, Réjouissance is a baked plum in slightly burnt caramel and good soap.
I could imagine a plum pie served by a freshly showered and creamed rendezvous. A pack of cigarettes lies open next to the drink, a sweet and sour fruit juice cocktail without alcohol.

I skim over the supposed lime in the top note. The saffron and the date I skillfully sniff over. I agree with the spicy and warm plum. I would assign the tobacco-smoky burnt "caramel" to ambergris. The good soap would then be lily?

All in all, a nice (not too sweet, not heavily gourmand) fragrance at a good price.
H/S ok for this.

Actually, I just wanted to make a brief statement about "The Silk".
But when I saw the fragrance pyramid, my curiosity got the better of me.
What does Sharry Baby Orchid smell like?
Like chocolate...What?!
Now I sniff more intensively...could I imagine something chocolatey? Maybe not dark but white?
Not a chocolate bar but powder for hot chocolate milk?
Not cocoa powder but cocoa butter? Or simply the cocoa fruit, not yet further processed?
Hmm could be...let your imagination run wild...

The Silk is one of my first perfumes.
I didn't know Parfumo back then. So I went to a perfumery and asked for "advice". I actually wanted something with pineapple or melon.
But the nice expert thought I was just the type for this one delicate aroma. Pineapple and melon wrapped in silk, so to speak.

Without the fragrance pyramid, I could imagine everything and nothing in this fragrance anyway.
Exactly THAT is what makes the Silk so appealing.
Even today, the most I would identify is rose and musk. The fragrance notes listed astonish me. Would never have thought of it, but I wouldn't say no to any of them either.

You can simply imagine whatever your imagination allows.
Descriptions such as powdery, floral, fruity, creamy, sweet, woody, ambery, musky, ozonic, aquatic, fresh, vanilla, delicately spicy.
Yes, I can confirm everything.
However, I find it linear, but long-lasting for such a delicate fragrance...
The sillage surrounds me at a personal social distance and you can still smell the fragrance even after a long day at work.
I also notice it in the evening when I return home, still filling the room in the bathroom.
Very good price/performance ratio.

I really wanted to try L.O.V.E because of the licorice and violets.
I wasn't expecting anything special for the price.
Now I am positively surprised.
Even the delightful, violet metallic-colored OVP and the heavy bottle, with the sprayer / lid in one, are an eye-catcher.
I know violets candied for decoration and in ice cream from Genoa.
You can clearly smell violets! I can almost taste it.
This is joined by linear:
Dry licorice liquorice
Splash of lemon with lemon zest
Fresh and candied fruit
Sweet rose
Almond with shell
Spicy cherry juice
Flowerpower patchouli
Vanilla tea
Woody powdery musk
I don't see the creamy-sweet fragrance as just girly, it also has something eccentric about it.
The notes harmonize and express each other.
H/S top.
L.O.V.E is a fragrance that is rather unrecognizable and has an exciting and high-quality effect.
I think it makes an impression for a low budget.

Far Away Royale totally flashed me.
I wanted to try it because of the plum, but didn't have high expectations.
I received so much more!
Peppery, oriental, spicy at first. Then comes a beautiful, fruity plum with white flowers and a cozy balsam with vanilla.
Nevertheless, it remains exciting because the notes oscillate and emerge again and again. Tolerably sweet, could even pass as unisex.
The fragrance pyramid above seems far too short to me. Hence the other notes:
Juicy plum
A splash of bergamot
Relaxing neroli
Warm orange blossom
Mystical myrrh
Cinnamon-breathed Peru balsam
It has all the things I love about so many gourmands in Favorable. H/S good average
LOVE

Decas is, for me, a very difficult fragrance.
He is moody and likes to have the show for himself. He does what he wants, shows himself as he pleases and disappears without saying goodbye.
Let me explain:
I was actually expecting a fragrance bomb from Xerjoff. Accordingly, I started the day with "only" 6 sprays ;-).
The first thing I noticed was the slightly bitter-tart mandarin. My beloved tuberose probably didn't feel like it and stayed in the bottle.
For me, Xerjoff fragrances very often have a scratchy, pungent undertone. But that's okay.
On the way to work, it turned out to be rather creamy.
On the bus, it wanted to have the show and didn't blend harmoniously into the commuters' fragrance mix.
By the time I started work, he was probably already offended, because HE WAS GONE...
No one around me discovered it either...it appeared sporadically as dry tobacco or I was allowed to enjoy the balsam briefly.
Iris aka iris and resins were here for a moment, only to disappear again immediately. Musk was the most faithful to me.
At home, I wanted to give him another chance to shine.
I wanted him on my arm, up close and personal, sooo much...after 20 minutes he decided, "I'm not staying here. Maybe I'll come back later".
Conclusion: I think Decas could make many people happy and is unisex. But test its performance on yourself first.
