I was looking for a floral, fresh and fruity perfume that performs well. That's not so easy, as fresh perfumes in particular tend to become skin-deep very quickly. Not Fatima! To my nose, Fatima smells exactly like Delina, perhaps a little deeper and perhaps Fatima remains a little more fruity, while Delina gradually sheds this note. There is a nuance in the fragrance that seems almost a little masculine (the vetiver perhaps or the woody notes?), but without the perfume losing any of its femininity. One spray is enough to have Fatima in your nose all day long. And that for 22 euros. Thank you dear Parfumo community, without you I would never have come across this perfume.

Sheer Beauty has many elements that I like: a slightly fruity acidity, something floral, musk, and a pleasantly sweet vanilla in the drydown, which rounds off the fragrance and makes it soft and feminine. This variety makes it exciting, but it can also be used almost anywhere in everyday life.

Don't be misled by the first impression in the top note - yes, at the beginning it has something about it that reminds you of deodorant (a good smelling one, but a deodorant). But there's more to come! Definitely a fragrance that unfolds.

I can't believe it, I recently saw a YouTube video in which the fragrance was recommended as a gourmand insider tip. The fragrance is a real cheapie, it smells of vanilla and caramel. I found myself in the drugstore the same day and sniffed the fragrance - it really is everywhere.

What can I say: it's different to what I expected. It's sweet, but there's nothing sweet about it, it smells somehow like tobacco, but not like smoke, it's strong, but not overpowering. I immediately had the association of Angels' Share with this fragrance, which I tested some time ago. The two are definitely not twins - Mini Pink is older, mind you, so if they were then Angels' Share would be the dupe and not the other way around ;) - but they really do have the same vibe. I bought it and haven't regretted it. A really great cheapie, you don't find a fragrance like this every day. There's nothing pink about it and it's not a classic sweet vanilla caramel scent. I don't find it floral at all.

I'm curious to see how those around me react to it.

On the first smelling I thought to myself only: "Beautiful fragrance, I want to have". I perceived a wonderful fruity vanilla scent and thought that was all and that would have been enough for me.

Would have. Far from it. I was surprised. Surprise, surprise!

The fragrance surpasses itself namely in the wearing process. This perfume evolves from the fruity to the gourmandig-creamy vanilla with spicy hints to the almost herbaceous patchouli drydown. I am in love and now wear this fragrance at all times of the day and night because it always fits. It is never too strong, too weak, too sweet, too pungent, but simply soft, gentle, pleasant, portable and freely dosed according to mood.

Ui, I think I need more than 30 ml.

This perfume smells great. It's my new favourite autumn/winter perfume. It's slightly milder than Spirit of Cashmere Musk, which is also a dupe for Hypnotic Poison. Since I have both at home, I can compare them well. Câline Rouge Intense doesn't smell as acrid and soapy as Spirit of Cashmere Musk, so it's probably closer to the original. Another big plus: It lasts forever, I can still smell it by the end of the day when I spray it in the morning. In any case, Câline Rouge Intense is a great alternative to the expensive original perfume. It's nice that affordable dupes are always being designed for classic perfumes.
