More Delina than Rosée
Beautiful rose scent, but unfortunately not what I expected. I wanted a more DLR-like fragrance but Hawwa Pink is unfortunately more of an OG Delina dupe. There are a few DLR hints in it, but unfortunately the similarity to the big sister outweighs more.
Still a nice fragrance. If someone is looking for a Delina Dupe, he will find it here

Caffeine shot in a bottle
The coffee note is great. Wonderfully warm and cozy. But then the rose kicks in. Not as bad as Intense cafe but still too present for my taste.

Longevity and sillage are also great for me. I want to like this fragrance so much. I'll try it again in winter when it's colder.

Fruity clean
A friend was wearing this fragrance and sprayed it on my skin. The first 15 minutes were meh, but then the fragrance unfolded and became the typical clean scent that I love.

The longevity was okay, the sillage was average.
I really like the bottle, especially the black bow. It's a nice fragrance for the home and the office.

Unfortunately, it is not meant to be
Ysl Libre is too masculine for me. I like ysl Libre intense and Le Parfum more. I was delighted when I found a YSL LI dupe and tested it immediately.

The scent is great. I love that the vanilla is more in the foreground here. Longevity and sillage were also good. But after 30-60 minutes, a pungent and biting note comes out that I smell in some zara fragrances. I don't know if it's a specific note or an ingredient in the production but the note is so pungent that it smells metallic and unfortunately ruins the fragrance for me. While the original smells authentic, GD seems synthetic due to this extremely pungent note.

If anyone has had the same experience with the pungent note, I'd love for someone to say so. I can't be the only one here who smells this note. Maybe one of you knows what exactly it is.

Summary: Great fragrance, good alternative to YSL LI. Unfortunately not suitable for me because of the pungent note.

Inexpensive and good dupe
Objectively speaking, this is a good perfume.
The fragrance is sweet and pleasant. People who like sweet scents will love it. It is definitely a dupe of Oriana and LDBS. Of course, the fragrance does not come close to the original but for the money you can overlook it very well.
H/S are good. Especially for the price. The durability for me was at least 6 hours.

Subjectively, I can say that this is not my fragrance. I might spray it on again in winter to see how I feel about it in the cold, but I don't find it suitable for me at this time of year.
Also, the scent dries a bit "cheap" on my skin. Not acrid or scratchy. Just a bit unattractive. I'll have to test the fragrance on my clothes.

For the price, you can't go wrong. Good alternative to two fragrances that are very expensive.
