About scented candles, BR540 and Venus
For years I have worn no perfume at all. I simply had no nerve and, yes, the last 6 years also no time to deal with cosmetics and perfume. But no sooner was my little daughter out of the woods, grew so slowly the need to find a little back to the old me. So I went after work to any perfumery that was on the way, with the clear goal to treat myself to a really good perfume. At that time I did not know Parfumo and thought, naive as I was, ONE perfume would be enough for me. Tsss... among the featured perfumes was Venus, from Amica Parfums, the house's own brand. This fragrance just would not let me go. I already knew it. Where from? I pondered and pondered and finally it clicked! Because the consultant said, "Many customers thought it smelled like BR540." That was it! Now I knew the connection! I had not smelled BR540 at that time. But I have a scented candle at home that is supposed to smell like this perfume. I was really amazed at this similarity. A few months later, here I am. I have the filling of BR540 in the meantime and I can only say: Yes, Venus totally smells like this perfume.

The little black
A simply heavenly vanilla fragrance! For me, an uncomplex fragrance: buttery soft vanilla with iris. This fully describes the fragrance for me. Without an annoying, exaggerated sweetness.

I would be interested times, how the perfume comes to its name. One could assume yes, the fragrance leans into the masculine. "The litten black one" or however one would translate "the little black one" correctly into English, would be more appropriate.
There was some girl toy in the 90s that totally smelled like this scent. Little dolls, ponies? If only I could come up with what that was....

What a bummer
...my filling is empty! And that so quickly as no other. I have the fragrance literally inhaled.
For me, which has discovered their fragrance passion only not so long ago for themselves, this fragrance is something very special.
The fragrance combination fig, cardamom and black tea I find very special. A team that the nose does not often smell. I would therefore also advise against a blind purchase.
At the same time, the fragrance is so insanely flattering and warm, so that it then again but a good bit more pleasing. I am actually an absolute summer person, but this fragrance sweetens me the shorter days.
The fragrance leans minimally into the feminine, for my nose.
In short: Filling empty, bottle must her!

Sailing boat
This perfume reminds me totally of the Baltic or North Sea. I can only agree with the previous speakers.

I have been looking for some time for an aquatic fragrance that I really like, because I have so my little problems with summer fragrances in general. Rarely do I like one. Either they smell me too much like a fruit cocktail and coconut or the citrus notes are too pungent for me. Far too quickly I have then citrus pungent cleaning products in the nose.
Both I have here fortunately not. I smell here just freshness and the sea. So exactly what I was looking for.
Why the fragrance is classified rather as feminine, I can not understand. I feel the fragrance as completely unisex. I smell nothing explicitly feminine.
To my autumn and winter fragrances this fragrance still does not come, but at least it is so far the best Aquate, which I have smelled.

Smoky velvety
I find it fascinating how you can evoke a certain association, in this case the campfire, from different scents!
I can't say it's an authentic campfire scent. Rather a romanticized memory of a campfire. And that's a good thing. Because who wants to smell like cold smoke, the smell that gets stuck in your clothes?

For me, the scent is absolutely special, soft, cozy, with a certain sweetness. Wonderful for winter and absolutely unisex for me. The clove is dominant for me at the beginning, then I mainly smell woody notes with a soft sweetness mixed in. I couldn't name vanilla explicitly. It is probably the interplay of the base notes as a whole.

The fragrance was a blind buy for me and fortunately it was exactly to my taste! I am absolutely delighted with the fragrance. It will accompany me through the cold days.

One more addendum: Unfortunately, it doesn't last very long on me. I can hardly smell anything after two hours. Accordingly, the sillage quickly becomes very weak. Some Youtubers say that the fragrance is not suitable for the office. As the intensity of the fragrance wears off so quickly, I can't agree with that.
