The Character and History of the Fragrance
Definitely Me Eau de Parfum is an eau de parfum by Maison 18.10, released in 2024.
Here, the Greek perfume brand presents an expressive unisex fragrance in which juicy fruit meets floral softness, spicy nuances, and a deep woody-amber base.
The name Definitely Me can be read as a confident statement of individuality.
The composition does not seek to go unnoticed: it unfolds with volume, richness, and presence, making it especially appealing to those who enjoy fragrances with character, a multilayered development, and a very powerful sillage.
Olfactive Profile and Development
Definitely Me Eau de Parfum opens brightly and appetizingly.
Juicy cherry, pineapple, and papaya create the impression of ripe fruit, while cardamom and pink pepper add sparkling spice and make the opening more energetic.
As a result, the first minutes of the composition are not merely sweet, but lively, slightly piquant, and festive.
As it develops, the fruity accord softens and merges with the floral heart.
Damask rose, freesia, iris, violet, sambac jasmine, lily of the valley, and osmanthus form a full-bodied bouquet in which transparent petal nuances meet creamy, powdery, and slightly honeyed warmth.
Almond milk, plum, and nutmeg lend the heart a velvety texture, richness, and a gourmand nuance.
The finish is built around amber, sandalwood, cedar, and musk, complemented by vanilla, honey, labdanum, myrrh, oakmoss, Peru balsam, and ambrettolide.
The base is warm, resinous, and enveloping, with soft woody depth and a lingering aftertaste. It is what gives the fragrance its distinctive silhouette and especially powerful sillage.
Wearability and Dosage
Definitely Me is positioned as a fragrance for women and men, but it may develop differently on each skin: on one person it may emphasize the juiciness of the fruit, while on another it may highlight the floral powderiness or the amber-woody base.
This is a versatile choice for those who do not confine themselves to strict gender boundaries and choose perfume according to their mood and character.
Because of its very powerful sillage, it should be applied with care.
No precise recommendation for the number of sprays on skin or clothing has been given for this release, so it is sensible to start with one spray, assess its development, and add another if necessary.
This rich eau de parfum is especially suitable for cool weather, evenings, meetings, celebrations, or any other occasion when you want to make an impression.
The Perfumer and Its Place in the Brand's Style
The composition was created by perfumer Popi Mouzioura.
Her approach is reflected in Definitely Me's contrasting architecture: a vivid fruity opening gradually transitions into a lush floral heart before settling on a warm resinous-woody base.
This progression makes the fragrance expressive and memorable.
For Maison 18.10, this release sounds like a bold showcase of modern Greek perfumery, where emotional appeal meets rich materials and noticeable longevity.
Definitely Me will suit those looking not for a light everyday companion, but for a striking fragrance with an individual signature and enough character to spark conversation.
