The scent reminds me of green peaches and fresh pear. It's light, with a slight sweetness and incredible juiciness. An excellent choice for summer, it refreshes and brings coolness. Definitely a feminine fragrance, it won't suit men )

To the fragrance: Amouage Dia Woman

The aldehydes here aren't heavy, and the green notes are lovely (though you still need to catch them), but the rest of the fragrance is so old school, you just want to run away. Amouage? I never would've guessed! This is definitely for those who adore classics and vintage things 🎉

To the fragrance: Rancé 1795 Eau Empire

The fragrance, in my opinion, is more suitable for men, even though it's declared as unisex. It's quite sharp and edgy. It features notes of tea, citrus accents, and galbanum, as well as a touch of spices. Overall, it leaves a mixed impression ))))

The bottle with the liquid looks quite unusual, even a bit gel-like. The scent is just super, reminds me of a limited edition from Tezenis. It's so warm, but at the same time with cool ginger notes. Mostly you can feel a sweetish base, and ginger adds an interesting accent. I don't catch anything else, but that's totally enough for the perfume to really hit the spot! 😊

Finally an adequate look at perfume criticism! I agree with every word. Especially about "smells expensive" - it's infuriating when they pass that off as expertise.

I've been looking for something like this for a long time! Special thanks for the information about seasonality. I used to wear winter perfume in summer and didn't understand why it felt heavy. Now ev...

Very informative article! I work in perfumery myself and completely agree with Anna. Clients have really become more knowledgeable about fragrances, and that's pleasing. Especially the 'don't rub perf...
