Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Medium (2 to 5 hours)
3
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

This fragrance, it just slips away, leaving a light floral trail behind it. Its unobtrusiveness struck me, such a delicacy that the name fully corresponds to its essence. The longevity is also pleasing; the sillage is noticeable but so gentle that it doesn't overwhelm. I remember how it enveloped me, and it makes me sad that such moments can't be brought back
3/5

The fragrance is fresh and appealing, but I wouldn't say it's capable of driving men crazy. It's more like a scent of lightness, flirtation, and fun. In my opinion, it's more suitable for young girls who aren't burdened by everyday life and are ready for adventures. To me, it seems too simple and even a bit boring ))
3/5
3
At first, it seems so light and airy, but then citrus accents and watery nuances start to break through. The fragrance is sweetish, but there's something strange about it that evokes sadness
4/5

Perhaps I don't have the most refined taste, but with this brand, I immediately associate it with the scent of Green Apple. Unfortunately, this smell didn't impress me. It's quite simple, floral, doesn't stand out, and is quickly forgotten
4/5

The fragrance reminds me of something fleeting, like flowers blooming in the shade. For me, it's simply the perfect nude. I barely smell it, but I'm sure others around me like it. If we talk about its notes, it's a light jasmine with a watery tint and a slightly sweet freshness. In such moments, you realize how quickly time passes, and how important it is to cherish every moment

This scent was given to me a few years ago, with the promise that it was unobtrusive and wouldn't bother me. But, alas, it didn't work out between us. For me, it's not clean at all, but rather floral and aquatic, very watery, even to the point of feeling damp. Some notes in it I absolutely dislike, I don't know what to blame (maybe it's not rose, lotus, and sandalwood, but jasmine and freesia against an amber background), but it reminds me of a failed attempt to mask an old sweat smell on a t-shirt with fresh toilet water. Towards the heart of the fragrance, this unpleasantness subsides a bit. Of course, it's not such an obvious sweat smell that people start to squint and cover their noses, but I only noticed it now when I applied the perfume for a review and tried to sniff it out thoroughly. Something about Pure DKNY has always put me off. There are a couple of pleasant notes - floral and velvety. I'd like to dry Pure DKNY out a bit, add a crispness like freshly washed laundry dried in the cold, and remove, pardon me, admirers, the sweat note 🌸
5/5

A scent that feels like an embrace, tender and romantic, like morning light. It feels incredibly comfortable on the skin, and that really makes me happy. I really like it

Pure DKNY is a debut fragrance that pleased many. Later, various flankers appeared, including one with verbena. This is a really interesting direction
4/5

I can't understand why these perfumes were given as a gift. The box was white with grey, but the scent was just super! 😍 Then I decided to buy a similar box, but the smell turned out to be completely different. The name has verbena in it, but I can't remember what the first ones were? 🎉
3/5

A fragrance that's great for bedding gives me mixed feelings. Purity and aristocracy are definitely present, but how noble it truly is - I can't say for sure. It seems pleasant, but at the same time, something about it is unsettling. This is just my opinion, of course, but that's how it smells to me. )
4/5
4
This is probably what freshness smells like: soft, delicate, and with a light touch. This fragrance isn't irritating, you want to inhale it again and again. But alas, the longevity isn't great - it disappears quickly, lasting a maximum of three to four hours
4/5

Pure DKNY, in my opinion, is a fragrance that's perfectly suited only for summer. Even in spring, it seems too fresh, very light and unobtrusive - exactly what you need on a hot day. Some say it smells like soap, but I don't agree. The main note here is freesia, and I also detect vanilla, even though it's not listed in the pyramid. Unfortunately, it doesn't last long on the skin, but it stays on clothes and hair all day
3/5

This scent, honestly, is too light and transparent. It smells of some strange cleanliness, like just out of the shower when you've put on a freshly washed blouse. Yes, it's pleasant, but nothing more. I'm saving this little bottle for summer, but I don't think it will impress anyone. It's strange, but my mom likes it, even though she's usually very picky about perfumes and calls all my favorite scents "stinkers"
