Rarely has a gourmand fragrance captivated me as much as this one!
Amore Caffè not only smells strikingly similar to my favorite dessert in Italy, but it also reminds me of the most beautiful moments in my "third homeland" every time.
After dinner in the evening lights, gazing at the picturesque Italian landscape, on the porch of a sweet little trattoria with a full belly after enjoying a wonderful pasta, the last glass of red wine is also coming to an end, and suddenly you catch the finest scent of strong coffee with vanilla ice cream. "Il Dolce" to complete a beautiful evening was served. Amore Caffè gives me exactly that vibe.

In my opinion, Amore Caffè offers the perfect mix of sweet and bitter. A strong, black espresso with a scoop of creamy vanilla gelato. A balanced combination that simply always works. As the fragrance develops, a delicate, not overly intense hint of amaretto joins in, and finito. That’s all it takes to smell wonderfully delicious.
The intense sillage that Amore Caffè leaves right after spraying lasts almost all day. I could perceive the delicious coffee scent on myself for over 10 hours, and on clothing and hair even much longer. Therefore, I find the price/quality ratio here completely appropriate. Due to the intensity of this fragrance, it will primarily appeal more in autumn and winter. However, in my opinion, there’s nothing wrong with wanting to smell like a coffee dessert in the warmer seasons.

For me, one of the best gourmands on the market, which truly reignites my great love for good coffee time and time again.

Who doesn't know them, the little delicious wafers filled with roasted hazelnut pieces, mixed with the finest cocoa cream? Le Vie di Milano - Passeggiata in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is exactly that, just for spraying. A true delight for sweet tooths and gourmand lovers.
The addition of tuberose and other white flowers keeps the scent spectacle from becoming too edible. These floral components actually do wonders for "Le Vie di Milano - Passeggiata in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II | Trussardi," allowing it to be worn not only in the colder months but also on cooler summer days. Unfortunately, the coconut remains hidden from my nose. I suspect it lends the fragrance its creaminess more in the background, but stays shyly concealed.

Since this is not a squeaky-sweet scent, but rather a simply very delicious, authentic nut dream, the fragrance can also be considered unisex for me.
I have nothing to criticize regarding its performance either. There are certainly stronger beasts on the market, but with "Le Vie di Milano - Passeggiata in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II | Trussardi," you will still stand out sufficiently. H/S upper average with a notable longevity of about 6 hours (on me!), after which it becomes more intimate.

Whether "Caramel Oud / كراميب عود | Ard Al Zaafaran / ارض الزعفران التجارية" proves to be a budget-friendly alternative remains to be seen. The fragrance notes personally lead me to believe it might be a good alternative for "Althaïr | Parfums de Marly." This will reveal itself in time.

So, if just snacking on Hanuta is no longer enough for you, then Le Vie di Milano - Passeggiata in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is definitely the right choice!

If someone had told me here at "Al Nashama / النشامة | Lattafa / لطافة" that this is an expensive niche fragrance, I would have believed it too. Yet again, it is another affordable masterpiece from Lattafa.
And for me, it is the most summery plum scent par excellence!

"Al Nashama / النشامة | Lattafa / لطافة" is very reminiscent of its expensive brother Paragon or its similarly budget-friendly "twin" "Vintage Radio | Lattafa / لطافة". All three are top-notch fragrances, but "Al Nashama / النشامة | Lattafa / لطافة" is simply fruitier, more summery, and has captivated me more.
In the opening, a very pleasant, almost meditative sage note initially overwhelms you, gently supported by spicy pepper notes. But right in the next wave, a sweet-sparkling plum DNA joins in, and a hint of citrus is also noticeable. "Al Nashama / النشامة | Lattafa / لطافة" is for me the perfect example of a unisex fragrance and was quickly "stolen" by my partner (which is almost a miracle considering his usual comments on fragrances). Just a very, very pleasant, spicy-fruity scent that can be wonderfully worn by both her and him in summer with clear niche potential.
Sillage is also adapted to the summer months - it doesn't overpower, but is still always present. So for the price, sillage is more than outstanding.

An extremely high-quality, beautiful fragrance that definitely deserves more attention and is completely unjustly overshadowed by its "brothers". But perhaps that is exactly what makes it a hidden gem.

Oriental, delicately melting, and warm! This is exactly how I perceive my latest acquisition "Jasmine Musc | Narciso Rodriguez." For me, it is the most beautiful jasmine scent I have ever had the pleasure of smelling. Just one whiff and I was instantly in love!

To me, "Jasmine Musc | Narciso Rodriguez" represents a beautifully fragrant, almost graceful princess from the Orient, who enjoys her evening stroll at sunset through the flower garden of her palace. Her skin glows in the evening light in soft gold, and her long white dress flows majestically like a veil over the sea of flowers. A gentle breeze awakens the scents of the floral diversity of jasmine and gardenia. The "Jasmine Musc | Narciso Rodriguez" truly melts warmly on the skin only through the harmonious support of woody notes and a ripe, noble vanilla component. A truly successful masterpiece in every respect.
A scent to feel good, a scent for going out, for everyday life, summer evenings, cold winter days, or simply to feel particularly beautiful and feminine, this scent is always suitable and shines as bright as can be! Its longevity (at least 10 hours) has proven to be more than reliable.

I will never let you go!

Once again, a fragrance from the category "Never sought, but found anyway."
Lilac Love Eau de Parfum is a scent that I probably would never have purchased based on the fragrance pyramid. It simply screams too much flower.
Even after our paths crossed for the first time, I wasn't 100% convinced. I was certainly positively surprised that there was more to it than just a purple floral mix, but I still wasn't completely caught. However, a small 2ml sample suddenly changed everything for me. Good things sometimes just need a little time.

Lilac Love Eau de Parfum is much more than just a purple floral dream. Alongside a very intense lilac note, a delicate creaminess of tonka and sandalwood caresses you like a snug body lotion with a hint of sunscreen. As the fragrance develops, it shines with a touch of cocoa, which adds a certain variety to the scent. Feminine and well-groomed is the order of the day here. Simply an everyday go-to, primarily for the warmer season with excellent performance. I can definitely perceive it on me for a good 10 hours. Even after showering, a delicate Lilac Love Eau de Parfum note can still be detected.

"Lilac Love (Eau de Parfum) | Amouage," simply a beautifully dreamy fragrance that even manages to sway die-hard floral skeptics.
