Hmm, suitably named, don't you think? Top notes: Blackcurrant, Bergamot, Orange FlowerHeart notes: Tuberose, OrrisBase notes: Cedarwood, Vanilla, Dry Amber It took a few months for me to work up the nerve to blind buy 'Special Occasion'. Patchouli in fragrances can either be a hit, a miss, or a barely there. I'd hoped for 'barely there' but in this fragrance, it is the fire...

a "clean girl" vibe. With refreshing apple blossom, peach, and ylang-ylang, it feels like you just stepped out of the shower - sweet, powdery, and clean. While it's been discontinued for many years, my properly-stored bottles smell just as good as the day I first bought them - so if you miss this unique blend or are just curious, it's worth hunting down an older bottle. 5) "Bombshell...

scent from another. Finally, some more informative names. No idea what they smell like, though. These flacons are my favourites among the North Korean ones I've seen.  Image of colourful Okryu flacons from North Korea Girls on Facebook. Two of these appear to be at least inspired by #Miss Dior. I'll let you decide.  Image of some more Okryu fragrances from North...

I own a travel size) BONUS - "Sunkissed Dahlia | Skylar": review can be found here. CONCLUSION I've got to say... Even though my wallet is relieved none of the fragrances from the discovery set will be making it into my collection, I'm a bit disappointed. Skylar's fragrances are either hit or miss and nothing in between. I thought I'd be adding another bottle to my collection. I feel like...

m only starting out in niche territory, but to me the box was worth it (price vs quantity and quality). I got loads of new niche fragrances to try out, from brands that may never ship to Canada or who are hard to find here. I do have to admit there could've been a lot more 2023 releases (they did miss out on an opportunity here), but the diversity of brands and type of perfumes made it up for me. All in all,...

to my experience) it doesn't blend always well and doesn't have a good chemistry occasionally.  So all the above negative reactions could be a behavior such as :"Damn' with All those rose lovers! This romance isn't for me"kinda thing.

fragrance.. I thought i may be noseblind or something but i’ve asked plenty family members and friends and we compared the given official initio sample with my new bottle and it’s almost two different smells… still has the same dna but there’s something lovely about the sample i just miss in the full size bottle, it reminded me of enclave of amouage a bit.. Is there any variations...

fragrance label Le Galion releases "Freveur", created as a tribute to perfumer Paul Vacher. The latest work of Le Galion is the fragrance that Paul Vacher, known for important perfumes such as "Miss Dior" and "Arpège", would probably have created if he had lived the 80s and known those years of excess and intoxication. The nose behind the fragrance...

L'interdit Rouge   Hello dears, here you are my very honest review about new Givenchy Rouge! it's Spicy but powderish, very powerful fragrance. It definitely marks your appereance 😊. Eventhough I was a bit more into NICHE fragrances lately, sometimes I miss my good old designer vibe. This is exactly it. Old Chic Givenchy  but with touch of modernity. Very strong project wich I adore.  Does...

to open an Instagram account. I’d shared pictures of my precious bottles here on Parfumo and other perfume communities prior to making this leap. However, I wanted to turn my boredom into something “artful” and find other like-minded folks in the process. My photography skills are hit-or-miss but I find there is a plethora of beautiful bottles and inspirational people behind the pictures...

a few minutes, and it is followed by a slightly powdery and hazelnut aroma, and creamy touch of sweet floral, something reminiscent of ylang-ylang. That should be the coranol molecule, which has an extremely fresh, floral, somewhat vibrant rosy-metallic note that is really almost impossible to miss.
