Peach crumb tea
Fragrance:
"Mystique Bouquet" starts with a light citrus note. The sweet peach and lychee combination quickly asserts itself and fuses into a very sweet peach and lychee iced tea. Fruity and delicious, but definitely synthetic. I only notice the flowers subtly and in the background. As the fragrance progresses, the initially juicy composition settles into a more fruity, powdery style. Peach iced tea becomes crumbly tea powder. Not much more happens on my skin, which is why I would classify the fragrance as fairly linear. A fruity-sweet, really clear, but also slightly sticky peach fragrance that I definitely haven't smelled like this before. The longevity on my skin was around 5-6 hours. If you scent yourself normally, you will be noticed by people standing nearby. The fruity notes are quite present, perhaps even intrusive. This rather sweet fragrance is certainly perceived differently by those around you.
When? Where? Who?
Fans of peach fragrances and fruity compositions in general could get their money's worth. "Mystique Bouquet" is special, has recognition value and also quite good longevity and sillage for a low price. In my opinion, it has signature potential! I like it in spring, but the fruity notes also come into their own in warmer temperatures. This creation is definitely not a refresher, but it evokes summer associations for me. Maybe because I always love eating peaches in summer?
For me, it's a feminine fragrance that I tend to see on younger women. When I think of my mother, mother-in-law or aunt, I don't think they would wear "Mystique Bouquet". It wouldn't be fresh enough for some, too squeaky-sweet for others, or it simply lacks a few rough edges in the form of herbaceous-spicy components.
#Mysterious Bouquet vs #La Fleur Bouquet
A comparison of "Mystique Bouquet" and "Valaya" is unfortunately not possible, as I have never smelled "Valaya". But there is a comparison with "La Fleur Bouquet", because I found it difficult to choose one of the fragrances when I bought it..
Mystique Bouquet:
Scent: Peach crumb tea with few flowers
S: 1m-2m, if you spray yourself completely
HB: on my skin for approx. 5 hours
Effect: niche character. Rather youthful. With lots of fruit through spring & summer. You have to like it! Test beforehand! Sometimes too sweet, no tart fragrance notes. Recognition value. Signature potential.
Opinion of (my) fragrance grouch: "Eww. Too sweet."
La Fleur Bouquet:
Fragrance: Delicate, floral, a little grassy, a little peach
S: rather close to the skin, even if you spray yourself completely
HB: on my skin for approx. 4 hours
Effect: designer character. Adult, elegant floral fragrance. Springtime feelings. Suitable for everyday wear. Pleasing! Perhaps also a little boring. Little recognition value. Nevertheless "beautiful".
Opinion of (my) fragrance grouch: "Quite good."
Comparative conclusion:
In my opinion, the fragrances develop in quite different directions. "Mystique Bouquet" is a predominantly fruity-sweet fragrance that is rather special. With "La Fleur Bouquet", on the other hand, the floral notes predominate and it is very pleasing, but has little recognition value. When it comes to blind purchases and gift recommendations, because the packaging and the low price invite you to do so, then I would say that "La Fleur Bouquet" is the safer bet. With "Mystique Bouquet", on the other hand, I would advise trying it out first.
Conclusion: If you are still looking for a special, fruity fragrance for your collection, you can take a closer look at "Mystique Bouquet". Sweet, synthetic peach crumb tea. Somehow delicious and yet still a little perfumey. For me, a better presentation of peach than the fermented version in Tom Ford's "Bitter Peach".

Pretty bouquet of flowers
Fragrance:
"LaFleur Bouquet" starts with tangy, sweet peach and lots of delicate, indefinable flowers. Peach recedes shortly after spraying and remains in the background throughout the fragrance. The blossoms gradually take center stage. The oakmoss, which has a rather delicate green appearance and is somewhat reminiscent of the smell of grass, also flashes through again and again. The composition is primarily floral and is underpinned by peach and green notes. Although it contains musk, the fragrance settles on the skin in the late drydown with a floral, powdery rather than creamy scent. The type of composition generally seems very familiar to me. It is a "clear" floral fragrance and, for me, is reminiscent of "Chloe" with an additional fruity twist. In my opinion, the fragrance has little recognition value, but is also correspondingly pleasing. All the fragrance components blend in well. To my nose, LaFleur Bouquet smells very high quality despite the low price and can keep up with current designer fragrances. In my opinion, it is not a special floral fragrance, but a very nice variation! A pretty bouquet of flowers! Longevity on my skin was around 4 hours and is therefore not outstanding. The sillage is rather skin-deep. For me, these are the two biggest weaknesses of this perfume. On the other hand, there are also people who like it a little more discreet. For these people, those supposed disadvantages might suit them well.
When? Where? Who?
Fans of clear, floral fragrances à la "Chloe" will most likely also like this fragrance. Very enchanting in spring. The composition smells classically floral and feminine and I find it suitable for every age group. I'm sure most women who like floral designer fragrances will like it. If anyone around you notices it, it will be in a positive way. It has no disruptive notes and is pleasing.
Definitely a nice everyday fragrance. It also goes well in the office if you want to blend in unobtrusively. In settings where you work closely with people and don't want to "bother" anyone with your perfume, the low sillage could also be an advantage. I'm thinking of care, hospitals, nurseries and schools. It doesn't last long working days from start to finish. Re-spray candidate.

If you like transparent floral fragrances à la Chloe, you can try La Fleur Bouquet with a clear conscience. This creation is so pleasing that it is even acceptable for my scent grouch, which is rather rare. The fragrance is subtle and not at all overpowering, so much so that I could even wear it with a migraine. For what it is, I like it very much.

Between candy and rose hair mask
As soon as it arrived, it left me again. My best friend, who describes herself as a "rose hater", unceremoniously took this little treasure with her on her last visit. Is that significant? Possibly. As she is really picky and has absolutely no use for niche fragrances, I can definitely say: "Mohra Silke Rose" is pleasing!
Fragrance:
The fragrance starts off very, very sweet on my skin. To my nose, the intensity of the sweetness is similar to that of "La Vie Est Belle", albeit less fruity. In the first few minutes, I can clearly smell the rose with lychee, all bedded on a fluffy vanilla base. Shortly after spraying it on, the fragrance is a "plank". Very sweet, very present. After about 10 minutes, the whole thing becomes increasingly creamy and very vanilla-like. After 2 hours, all I can smell on my perfume-sucking skin is the creamy-sweet musk base. Definitely more cream than powder. The floral notes have almost completely disappeared.
The sillage is really strong at the beginning. I can only agree with the previous speaker. Unfortunately, it fades (too) quickly for me, as does the longevity. It is conceivable that more sensitive noses perceive it differently..
I find the fragrance relatively linear. Not much happens, except fruit/flower -> vanilla/musk. The former recedes, the latter takes over until only cream remains.
Fragrance impression:
My first association was: "Oh, it's so sweet! You smell like that when you're 13." After wearing it several times, I can say: Mohra Silky Rose smells young, somewhat innocent, but not only. In my opinion, the creation moves back and forth between girlish and sophisticated. Between candy and rose hair mask. It is generally a pleasing fragrance and is certainly fragrant and pleasant for many noses. Not necessarily beautiful and the most gorgeous thing you've ever smelled, but quite nice.
When? Where? Who?
For me, as an established woman, it would not be wearable in everyday working life. Normally, I am quite painless in my choice of fragrances in relation to my surroundings. For me, however, this one exudes the exact opposite of seriousness and competence. I would be afraid of being taken less seriously, maybe just unconsciously? Due to the poor longevity on me or the fact that I simply can no longer perceive the fragrance well, I would also have to reapply at lunchtime at the latest. Not ideal either.
For me, it's more of a fragrance to wear at home when I've had a beauty day and want to feel particularly feminine and 10 years younger. Certainly also nice and suitable for girls' evenings on the couch. The creation is lovely, cute, soft and cuddly. The bottle matches. In my opinion, an absolute spring number and not a bad one at all
Conclusion:
A creation that doesn't make you feel like a queen, but like a princess. Sweet and well-groomed. Sometimes there's nothing wrong with that.
The fragrance quality is definitely right for the price.
A top blind-buy gift for your 13-year-old niece. Without irony, a recommendation from me! :D

Forest or sauna?
It is late summer. I'm walking through a magnificent mixed forest. The air is cool and dry, the sun shimmers through the canopy of leaves and needles. After a while, I penetrate deeper into the forest. It becomes denser, greener and ever more magnificent. I stop at a large oak tree, lean against the trunk and look at the leaves swaying in the wind. I smell dry wood, golden resins and the green of the trees. "Crown of Marmara, is that you?
Scent:
Shortly after spraying it on, a slightly sweet citrus comes through. The fragrance quickly turns very green. The citrus and green notes together with the patchouli have an almost ethereal effect on my nose and evoke slight sauna associations. I like that very much! The composition is also accompanied at the beginning by a spiciness that seems peppery to me, even though it is not listed. Subliminally, I can smell a certain warmth, wood and also some vanilla in the background right from the start. The green components gradually recede a little, but never disappear completely. Dry resins and woods become more present. Although caramel is listed, I don't find the fragrance very sweet. Over time, the amber settles slightly smoky on the skin.
When? Where? Who?
For lovers of ethereal, woody fragrances. A beautiful, mood-lifting daily that suits every season. I find it neither too soft for winter nor too sweet for summer. It goes more in a masculine direction, but I would have no problem wearing it myself.
Conclusion:
With its citrus, herbaceous notes including patchouli and the dry wood-amber combination, "Crown of Malmara" is a very cozy fragrance for my nose, which evokes associations of forest and sauna in me. For me, it is a special fragrance DNA and the best masculine-inspired fragrance of the brand.

Visit to the "cigar room"
Dark brown colonial-style wooden furniture adorns the room. The dark wallpapered walls are barely visible as they have been covered with all kinds of bookshelves. In the middle of the room are two comfortable-looking leather armchairs that invite you to relax. Between them is a table with an expensive-looking bottle of rum and matching glasses. The room smells of pipe tobacco. Someone has had a good time here. I searched the internet for half an eternity for this scenario, which has stayed in my head from several movies. I found what I was looking for under "cigar room". It seems to be a common term for rooms furnished in this way. "Cuban Tobacco" evokes this association for me.
Fragrance:
At the beginning it smells of alcohol quite quickly. This is not due to poor perfume quality, but because of the "plum wine" fragrance component. For me, however, the alcoholic scent could just as well be something along the lines of rum/whiskey and the composition quickly becomes very sweet and, in my opinion, a little "oppressive". Tobacco appears discreetly at first, but soon turns into a strong "smoky" note. The end result is a sweet, heavy tobacco fragrance. It reminds me of "Tobacco Vanilla" but without the dried fruit and star anise that are so characteristic of this fragrance. It was simply omitted and a dash of "By the fire place" was added instead. That's how strong the smoky note seems to me, which unfortunately I'm not a big fan of. It brings back memories of drunken party nights and campfire evenings. I think of the mornings afterwards and how I had to put the laundry in the washing machine smelling of smoke.
When? Where? Who?
Where do people want to smell like a smokehouse? At the Christmas market?
In general, I would find it most wearable in the fresh air in fall or winter, because the scents could unfold so well without disturbing anyone. A dark, sweet, smoky - eh - smoky fragrance. It is certainly also suitable for going out. Unisex, it may tend to appeal more to men.
Conclusion:
In itself, "Cuban Tobacco" is a good fragrance for all little smokers and avengers. Fans of alcohol, tobacco and open fires - but unfortunately not for me as a sensitive person. Headache candidate.
