New Notes Felina — a gourmand composition with an oriental character
New Notes Felina is a 2025 fragrance created for those who love rich gourmand compositions with a soft, cozy and slightly mysterious character.
The perfume was released by the Italian brand New Notes, which reimagines familiar accords and transforms them into modern olfactory stories.
Felina is part of the Modern Liquids collection and belongs to the oriental and gourmand families.
It is positioned as a unisex fragrance: Felina unfolds equally intriguingly on women’s and men’s skin, adapting to body temperature and individual chemistry.
Its mood is sweet, enveloping and slightly smoky, without feeling overly heavy.
The composition combines creamy, spicy, woody, powdery and ambery nuances, giving the fragrance a layered character rather than reducing it to a single dessert-like note.
The fragrance’s character and development
From the very start, Felina sets an appetizing mood: caramel, coffee, coconut, milk, chocolate, vanilla and cinnamon create the effect of a warm dessert with a spicy aftertaste.
This is not mere sweetness, but a dense, velvety accord in which coffee’s bitterness balances milky softness, while cinnamon adds a distinctive accent.
As it develops, the composition becomes deeper and more complex.
Caramel blends with incense, powdery nuances, tobacco, tonka beans and a woody accord; juniper adds a dry, slightly resinous facet.
As a result, the fragrance gradually moves beyond classic gourmand territory and takes on an oriental atmosphere — warm, intimate and slightly mysterious.
Amber, sandalwood, vanilla and musk remain in the base. The finish is creamy-woody, soft and serene, leaving the sensation of cozy cashmere on the skin.
Vanilla supports the sweet theme, sandalwood smooths it out, while amber and musk give the composition roundness and comfort.
Longevity, sillage and application
Felina is available in a perfume concentration, or extrait, yet its sillage is considered subtle.
It is a good choice for those who prefer a scented cloud within their personal space rather than a noticeable perfume trail extending several meters.
The composition is especially fitting for cool weather, evenings, relaxing time at home, dates or quiet, intimate settings.
The recommended way to apply it to skin and clothing is to “walk into the cloud.” This method helps distribute the rich gourmand accord delicately and prevents excessive sweetness during the first few minutes.
If you want to emphasize the creamy base, apply the fragrance to warm areas of the skin; for a softer effect, spray it in front of you and then walk through the scented cloud.
Who will enjoy New Notes Felina
Felina will appeal to fans of vanilla, caramel and coffee fragrances who are looking for more than a light dessert — a multifaceted composition with tobacco, incense and woody nuances.
It is a good choice for those who enjoy cozy sweetness but want it to have depth, smokiness and spicy definition.
In an everyday fragrance wardrobe, it can become a comforting fall-and-winter accent, while in the evening it can add a sensual touch to an outfit.
In terms of its overall mood, New Notes Felina can be considered alongside fragrances such as Chopard Wish, although Felina places greater emphasis on coffee, a milky-vanilla texture, tobacco and a woody base.
The perfumer is not identified in the available information, so it is more accurate to evaluate the fragrance through its structure and olfactory character. No other concentrations of this release have been announced either.
