First of all, thank you Parfumo for letting me test this great fragrance. When I opened the bubble envelope, I saw a beautiful card with a fragrance sample of "Cappadocia | Memo Paris" attached

Of course, I had to test it straight away. I sprayed it on and immediately got a warm, spicy cloud of saffron. Not just me, but also those around me. Because the fragrance projects really well. Some sweetness joins in very quickly. Vanilla is clearly evident in the DD and this gives the whole thing even more warmth. Therefore also well wearable unisex.

Personally, I think it even has an oriental touch, because whenever I got a whiff of the fragrance, I thought to myself that I had something like this in my collection. But as I said, only in that direction. That would be the "Creation Gold Edition | Baug Sons"

I deliberately only applied "Cappadocia | Memo Paris" to my skin to see how long I would notice it myself. After about six to seven hours, it slowly becomes skin-deep. I can imagine that it is definitely perceptible on clothing for a day, if not even longer.

I wouldn't wear it myself in the height of summer, but otherwise it's a beautiful, enveloping, mood-lifting companion.

I would definitely consider buying it, because even my husband has worn it for testing purposes and he is also very impressed by the fragrance.

You have to like saffron, incense, spicy notes, vanilla and benzoin, because you can smell all of these notes.

I don't get a strawberry milkshake, which I'm quite happy about. Instead, I get a fresh, fruity, sweet, creamy fruit cocktail. And I'm really happy about that. It was a successful blind buy. Sipping a delicious cocktail at the pool bar in the evening on vacation. It could taste like "Yara | Lattafa / لطافة".

The fragrance smells pretty much the same from start to finish. No major changes over time, but that doesn't always have to be the case. Otherwise more for younger girls or young-at-heart ladies like me ;)

The fragrance lasts 4 hours on me. After that I have to spray again. But no problem for the price.

How graceful and mature the fragrance comes across.

It is supposed to be reminiscent of the "Delina Exclusif | Parfums de Marly". I actually tested it in the perfumery I trust, because the "Delina (Eau de Parfum) | Parfums de Marly" blew me away> in a positive sense. I found the big sister (Delina Exclusif) quite okay, but that's not enough for me to spend so much money. Then I thought maybe the "Club de Nuit Impériale | Armaf" would be enough for me and ordered it blind. Yes, and it is enough for me. They both smell really very similar.

As mentioned, the Imperiale smells wonderfully graceful and mature, with its powdery, incensey rose. Not as playful, sparkling and young as the "Delina (Eau de Parfum) | Parfums de Marly" but older> but not too old ;)

You really have to like incense here, as it is very, very perceptible. In combination with rose and a sweet, intrusive powdery scent, this results in a great, extraordinary fragrance.

Lasts easily 8 hours and on clothes until the next day. Sillage first 3 to 4h there.

In summer, I prefer the sparkling, fruity Delina, which is a little too heavy for me. But otherwise wearable all year round.

Bottle: really cool, stylish> pearl-colored with a golden chain and golden cap. It contains small rhinestones. The bottle is quite heavy. All in all, you can't complain for 40 euros.

You may not get coffee or espresso. But definitely a latte with a clearly perceptible rose and a hint of vanilla. As already mentioned in my review of "Extreme Rose | Louis Varel", I like to combine the two fragrances as they are close to each other and so I save myself the more expensive "Intense Cafe | Montale". If you like to get more than just a latte, you should perhaps choose the "Ristretto Intense Cafe | Montale" or, like me, layer it with "Intense Cafe | Montale". Then you'll definitely have more coffee. In any case, the rose is very well represented in the fragrance.

I wouldn't call Fatima a sister, despite the very similar beautiful bottle. But at the end of the day, the fragrance speaks for itself.

Let's start with the durability. Clearly perceptible for a good 7 hours. Sillage clearly there for the first 3 hours. Not bad at all.

The fragrance: while Delina is much more sparkling, tart and "pungent", Fatima is fruitier and somehow rounder and younger. If you prefer that, you can go for it. The rhubarb>rose combination is just as present and comparable and that is what makes the two so similar.

The bottle is a real eye-catcher. Girlish, pink, shape similar to Delina. It is very successful and heavy. Incidentally, it comes in attractive packaging with small, pink artificial roses.

You really get a lot for a small budget here.
