When the fragrance was released and I received the sample from a sharing, I was initially in two minds.
The bottle was beautiful and extravagant, suggesting that the fragrance must be similar. But it was much more delicate than I expected. Lavish price for a simple fragrance.
But my opinion has since changed and I wouldn't want to be without it.

You really get a lot of mandarin at the beginning. Sweet, heavy and in-your-face. Then the fragrance subsides relatively quickly and becomes creamy, but retains the sweetness. I perceive coconut, but not in an edible way but like a high-quality body lotion.
The gardenia in this combination does something to me. Yellow, good mood, spring. It gives me endless motivational boosts.
Yes, it's relatively simple. Hardly any progression. But it's the only fragrance in my collection that I always want to reach for. In a bad mood? Not with me! Not with this fragrance. An everlasting fragrance that remains present (6-7 hours) but does not overwhelm.

I failed in my attempt to find a fragrance similar to this one. Alien Goddess Eau de Parfum was not for me. So I'd rather dig a little deeper into my pocket and get another bunker bottle. Maybe even 2 ...
I would like to be able to use this "good mood in a bottle" for years to come.

I have been in an inner conflict ever since I tested the fragrance. On the one hand, something inside me screams for enthusiasm and something repels me. But here's my first impression:
On the test strip, the fragrance was too sweet, too squeaky and shrill for me. The background was sultry and reminded me of La Capitale, although no oud is listed.

On the skin, however, a completely different house number.
On my arm, it is much less sweet, starting with a fruity fruit basket. In fact, I thought I could detect pineapple very clearly here, but according to the fragrance pyramid, this is not present either. The passion fruit becomes increasingly tart and bitter and the mango seems slightly unripe.
I find this constellation quite interesting and it doesn't make the fragrance too sweet or too "young".

The rose is a faithful companion from start to finish, but changes as it progresses. Initially perceived as soapy, it becomes quite elegant and mature after a while.

For me, all this would be a reason to order this fragrance immediately and rock it in summer. If it weren't for the overloaded dose of saffron
So really so strong, so heavy leathery and leaves this fragrance sultry.
Headache spreads.
But it is precisely this combination of everything, including the light woods that round off the fragrance, that make it something special
They give the fragrance character and make it recognizable. I want to like you so much, to make friends with you. But I don't see you in summer. As tropical and exotic as you may be.

I dared to try it for the first time. A fragrance that would remind me of my morning ritual. Of the little green devil that wakes me up.
I was very excited when I opened my sample and was immediately greeted by a fruity, sweet fragrance that only reinforced my anticipation.
On the skin, however, it underwent a development that not only confused me, but also made me question whether I should just drink my matcha instead of wearing it.

First, an extremely nutty and milky pistachio smell hit my nose. Unexpected at first but not bad, right?
Delicious, sweet and creamy. It doesn't take long before the matcha is clearly recognizable. The sweetness recedes, the matcha remains. And makes the fragrance more bitter than I would have liked.

Honey ? Not for me. Passion fruit? Not for me either.
But the RUM!!! It really hits the spot now.
And it actually makes the initially delicious fragrance less enjoyable for me.
I'm actually a fan of rum in fragrances, but apparently not in creamy, milky ones. In this case, it just leaves me with a strange alcohol note, which together with the matcha seems inharmonious. The milk also seems sour to me now, almost fermented.
The matcha, which I first perceived as delicious, authentic, tart and milky. With this combination, it develops into a synthetic confusion that I can hardly identify and leaves me with a headache.

This fragrance is really worth testing if you are a fan of lactonic gourmands. But a blindbuy? Better not

At first I was in two minds whether I wanted to test the fragrance at all (cherry scents on mass), but I'm glad I did. The Sirène undergoes an incredibly interesting development on my skin. At first I thought of Caprisonne cherry, but oud didn't stay in the background for me, it was in the same intensity as the cherry. That would have been too much for me for the warm season. Later, however, the oud receded more and more into the background, the cherry became darker and more sensual, and incense was added.
For me, the bottle screams "spring and summer" but the fragrance does not. Maybe for dates on warm summer evenings, but I see it more in the fall. The H/S is really in your face, less is actually more.

Between the freshly cut lilies in the floral bouquet and the penetrating pepper, there is a risk of suffocation in the first few minutes. I have never smelled such an authentically floral fragrance. At first, I thought I detected something fruity (guava?)
As it progresses, it becomes softer, but the sillage remains strong. Now fine woods are added.
For me, this fragrance is anything but 0815. The only thing that keeps me from buying it is the pepper that is noticeable throughout.
