How to choose a fragrance for a first date
A first date is like a little performance where every detail matters. Clothes, tone of voice, glance...
Svoi-Chuzhoy is a young Russian perfume brand founded in 2025. Its name sounds like an invitation to a dialogue about the perception of fragrances: the same perfume may seem familiar and close to one person, but completely unexpected and even alien to another. It is this play of personal associations that makes the brand interesting for those who perceive perfumery not only as an accessory, but also as a way to tell about themselves.
The brand appeared in Russia at a time when domestic perfumery is actively searching for its own voice and turning to the diversity of individual tastes. At an early stage of its existence, the brand is forming a catalog in which each fragrance becomes a separate statement. Official information about the parent company, founders, and awards has not yet been announced, so the history of the brand should be perceived as an evolving chapter of modern Russian perfumery.
The perfume concept of ‘Svoi-Chuzhoy’ is built around personal choice and emotional reaction. In this approach, what is especially important is not formal gender boundaries, but the character of the composition, its mood, and how it unfolds on the skin. The brand's fragrances can be considered as an opportunity to find your own perfumery signature — from the first acquaintance to creating a full collection of favorite compositions.
Information about the perfumers who worked with the brand has not yet been published. As the brand develops and new releases appear, information about the creators can be found in the perfumers section, comparing each specialist's authorial style with the nature of the released compositions. This approach helps to understand the fragrance more deeply: to study not only the notes, but also the professional signature of its creator.
Among the brand's notable compositions today, Svoi-Chuzhoy - 09 and Svoi-Chuzhoy - 13 stand out. These fragrances are suitable for a first introduction to the brand and allow you to compare different facets of its perfume direction. To form your own opinion, it is worth evaluating the compositions not only immediately after application, but also over several hours: the sound changes as the top, heart, and base notes unfold.
The choice between fragrances depends on individual taste, season, and situation. One perfume may show itself better in cool weather and evening settings, another may be more convenient for everyday use. Before buying a full-size bottle, it is wise to test the composition on your skin and look at user reviews, since longevity and sillage always depend on skin type, temperature, and dosage.
The Svoi-Chuzhoy catalog is still at the formation stage, so the brand is especially interesting for those who follow new names and want to discover perfumery beyond the usual list of major houses. Here, fragrance enthusiasts have the opportunity to watch a young Russian brand build its own aesthetic, expand its range, and find its audience.
To choose the best perfumes of the brand for yourself, start with the two key fragrances — 09 and 13, compare their mood and character of development, and then join the discussion of perfumery. User reviews and ratings will help you see the compositions from different sides, but the final answer to whether a fragrance becomes ‘yours’ can only be given by personal acquaintance with it.
