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.

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.

Complexity and depth

5/5

After my first encounter, this fragrance didn't impress me at all) Now I realize I just wasn't ready for it back then. It's truly luxurious and elegant, but at the same time, it creates distance. First, there's a plum accent, then bitter notes of wormwood appear, and cold lilies with tuberose. The base is oriental, soft like suede, but not sweet, with a slight sharpness and tartness. It lasts on my wrist until morning, and the sillage isn't too strong - a colleague can smell it from about half a meter away
5/5

The fragrance really grabs attention; it's rich and multifaceted, with a pronounced character. Here, you can feel the bitterness of wormwood intertwined with white flowers, as well as tart suede and light plum notes. This combination creates a unique impression and makes you ponder new facets of perception
3/5

the fragrance is truly oriental, velvety, with notes of plum and wormwood bitterness at the start. in the heart, tuberose unfolds, surrounded by jasmine and lilies. and in the base, vanilla, resins, and woody accords are felt, oud is also clearly audible. it wasn't for me, but those who love oud and oriental notes should like it
5/5
5
The fragrance made an impression, especially the plum note, which smoothly transitions into tuberose. Against this backdrop, there's a whole bouquet of lilies that doesn't overwhelm but rather complements appropriately. Suede and vanilla create a cozy feeling, as if embracing all this splendor. Only one word comes to mind - “magical”
2/5

This fragrance, honestly, just leaves me bewildered. The description given here sounds like some kind of nonsense. Flowers, wood, vanilla, and patchouli - who needs that? I don't feel any femininity, just heaviness and sharpness. Oriental? More like an oppressive atmosphere you want to escape from. I don't understand how anyone can admire this so much
4/5

The fragrance is quite rich. It's truly multifaceted. At first, the sweetness might seem overwhelming, but after 20-30 minutes, those intrusive notes disappear, revealing a beautiful, expensive scent. I think it's more suitable for mature women
3/5
3
The fragrance is truly vibrant, with feminine plum accents that unexpectedly contrast with bitter wormwood notes. The white flowers here are dense, and woody nuances add depth. Overall, it's a rich and intriguing scent, especially suitable for autumn and winter. But the lily somewhat spoils the impression; it sounds too cold and causes rejection
