I don't just want to try this fragrance, I want to buy it right away! Rose with patchouli is simply the perfect combination for me. And if nuts were added too, then it's definitely a must-have! But, unfortunately, I haven't found it online yet. I wrote to Randewoo, and they promised to forward my request to purchasing. I'm rating it based on reviews from those who have already tried this perfume 🌸

To the fragrance: Oriflame Vivacity

The fragrance opens with sharp grapefruit and bright orange blossom, creating a sparkling first impression. Then some flowers appear in the composition, possibly peony, and it becomes more creamy. After half an hour, a light trail of white musk remains, mixed with baby cream and a barely noticeable sweetness of amber. A sourish tint is felt during the floral development stage, but this moment quickly passes. Unfortunately, my bottle has absolutely no longevity - an hour at most, and if I'm lucky, three, if I really sniff. The sillage also leaves much to be desired. This fragrance is more for personal use

To the fragrance: Amouage Ubar

Ubar for me is something strange, like stepping into an oriental city. The smoke of incense, bitterness, sweet pilaf spices, and jasmine that just fills the space. To put it simply, it's smoky jasmine with honeyed sweetness, but it's not immediately clear whether you like it or not. After 12 hours, the sweetness changes, becoming animalic and powdery, which is quite pleasant. The fragrance becomes softer, but it's very long-lasting and leaves a trail. It's like French retro, but with a modern twist. The only thing that's disappointing is that almost all Amouages smell terrible on my skin, so I prefer to wear it only on my hair. There's something in common with Maitresse by Agent Provocateur, both in its pyramid and its scent - not exactly clones, but definitely something related

To the fragrance: Amouage Interlude Woman

For me, this scent is prune. At first, it seems to smolder, with a bitter smoke reminiscent of walnut partitions. Then it transforms into a smoky-cured, honeyed scent. I can't say it's a gourmand smell, but thoughts of prune cake do come to mind. A tartness from dried fruits, perhaps from kiwi. Resins, coffee, and incense intertwine so beautifully, creating a sense of expensive sound. The longevity is simply impressive, like much from Amouage. The composition is cohesive, the sillage noticeable. I wear it with pleasure when I want to add some prune to my everyday life

To the fragrance: Faberlic Renata Secret

Oh, how I love this fragrance! It fills me with a sense of freshness: green woody leaves, the sweet dampness of water lilies, and a touch of bitterness from willow twigs. Musky powder adds lightness, although sometimes I feel like there's something of heliotrope here. Everything is wonderful, but where are you, sillage and longevity? ) Some claim it smells like dill. I don't agree, but it seems that can also be detected. In my opinion, it's not like Aura. My friend wears Aura, and she also thinks they are different fragrances. Aura is more intense in cold weather, although it also has greenness with vanilla. But in the heat, it smells like orange blossom. Renata, on the other hand, is a green-vanilla-bitterish composition. And so quiet!

To the fragrance: Oriflame Possess

At first, the fragrance seemed too sweet to me, the ylang-ylang was definitely overdone. But then I stumbled upon a page with its description, and the desire to buy it arose. In the end, I bought it. In my opinion, it resembles imported shortbread cookies in a can with pineapples. Sweetness is present, but it doesn't cause disgust. There's some roughness to it, as it's a chypre. The pineapple-citrus tartness is well-felt. Its longevity and sillage were excellent. But, unfortunately, the line doesn't seem to store very well - over time, the fragrance became less vibrant and not as long-lasting. That's sad 😕

To the fragrance: Oriflame Elvie

I really used to like this fragrance, but I quickly moved on from it. The opening is sharp, with bitter citrus notes and freesia. In the main development, white flowers, especially lily of the valley, and white musk dominate. Green and aquatic accents are also noticeable. Amber and sandalwood add sweetness. The longevity is decent, the sillage is moderate, but sometimes it can be too intrusive

They say there's a replacement, but I can't say for sure. Finding "Kometa" is almost impossible now. I hope they bring it back to sale after all 🤞

Aqua Divina is not what I expected. Yes, marine notes are present, but in Divina, I felt exactly the salt I was looking for - it's harsh, bitter, with iodine. For me, this is the ideal option. But Tsa...
