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
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.

The fragrance is simply amazing, so soft and powdery. Femininity is felt at every turn, the floral notes are pleasing, nothing is jarring, everything is in perfect balance. Violet is clearly in the foreground here, but it doesn't scream, it gently whispers 🌸
3/5

The fragrance is indeed beautiful, but the longevity and sillage leave much to be desired. Wormwood, datura, and powder clearly dominate. It's simply impossible to wear it in summer, although I'd love to hear how it changes in warm weather. But inside, everything protests against it. In winter, it's pleasing, but only in small amounts 😔

This fragrance, as far as I know, is indeed very popular with the brand. And it's no coincidence - it's simply magnificent. I would describe it as "herbal": it has dried herbs, and also reminds me of a bouquet of wild flowers, even dried ones. The green accord perfectly harmonizes with sweet fruity notes, vanilla, and violet powder, which I really like. The fragrance is not loud, not for celebrations, but rather calm, which makes it ideal for everyday wear. I would say it's definitely a feminine scent
4/5

The fragrance left me with mixed feelings, but overall I like it. The combination of the most unexpected components creates such an effect that it's simply impossible to pass it by
3/5

The scent reminds me a bit of shampoo, but that's not too bad. The tea notes and green apple, unfortunately, don't add any charm to this composition. Alas, I can't get rid of them 😕
5/5

The scent reminds me as if you're immersing yourself in a warm bubble bath. Suede undertones somewhere in the background create an atmosphere of coziness. It feels like after visiting an expensive spa, when all worries are left behind. Soft musk, powdery violet, and sweet vanilla - all this evokes nostalgia. With it comes a feeling of comfort and relaxation, but at the same time, as if something has irrevocably gone
4/5

The scent is clearly feminine, with fruity-powdery notes. Apple and nectarine are here, but the bitterness is barely perceptible. Overall, it doesn't break down into individual notes, feeling like a single, slightly outdated whole. Long-lasting, with sillage, and rounded lines, it definitely emphasizes femininity
4/5

I adore when wormwood is present in perfumery, but in this case, alas, it didn't grab me. The fragrance is beautiful, of course, but it seems too serious and mature for me. I can detect wormwood, fresh greenery, powdery violet, and moss in it
3/5

There seems to be too much greenery here, in my opinion. Oakmoss clearly dominates. Apple is felt somewhere in the background, and lily-of-the-valley also has a bitterness, as if something is off. Jasmine is dry, even like tea with it, but not the freshest either. Powdery violet adds an interesting touch. Nectarine? Not sure, maybe green, unripe, reminds a bit of Malone's nectarine, which also has green notes. The fragrance is quite strict, I think it would suit a teacher or someone of that kind 🤔
3/5

Artemisia is, in essence, wormwood, and it's clearly present here. If you like this scent, you'll enjoy it. For some reason, I associate it with something old-fashioned, reminiscent of Soviet-era perfumes, something from the Extra group. I would recommend it for older women. There's no playfulness or lightness in it. In short, it's a spicy sweetness 🌿
2/5

A fragrance that leaves a pleasant aftertaste, but the musk note seems too intrusive. For the first three hours, it really projects, but then it seems to fade into the background, remaining only as a faint reminder until evening. You can even catch it on your hair in the morning, but that doesn't save the situation. Artemisia has one big drawback - it's not memorable, as if I've encountered it in other perfumes, both luxury and Arabian. It quickly gets boring, and wearing it several days in a row becomes unbearable. It's better to alternate it with something else so as not to lose interest 😔
4/5
4
it gives a rather strict impression, with bitter-floral notes. like a strict boss who tolerates no weaknesses. but over time, as it unfolds, it becomes more tender and powdery. there's no room for sentimentality in it, only beautiful restraint and strictness. in the base, you feel bitter-tart roots with a slight sweetness, creating an overall powdery atmosphere. for me, this fragrance is neither flirtatious nor playful, although there's a bit of warmth and shimmer at its heart. overall, it's more suitable for work. I think that with the right dosage in the workplace, it won't bother anyone
5/5

I bought myself this Artemisia fragrance, and it's simply amazing! So delicate and light, with creamy violet notes. It's like it wraps me in soft clouds of vanilla and powder. True harmony and incredible femininity in every breath
4/5

The fragrance, in my opinion, is more floral-fruity than oriental. Both in density and composition. Moreover, it's rather cool or even neutral. From the first notes, you can feel a powdery violet that almost turns into chalk. It's not a sweet violet, but as neutral as the coolness itself. Over time, it transforms into the tartness of apricot. And then it starts to resemble non-alcoholic champagne that has already gone flat. Doesn't sound great, but overall the fragrance is pleasant 😊
5/5

The fragrance is simply amazing, a true fairy tale! I haven't encountered anything similar that could rival it. It's so feminine and refined, like a light silk scarf, very delicate and genuinely English. I wouldn't trade it for anything! 🌸
