To the fragrance: Guerlain Baiser de Russie

Ever tried cranberry vodka from Finland? That's kinda what you get in the first moments after applying this. A hint of sourness, a light intoxicating note, and some playfulness. Then, a barely perceptible scent of pine needles joins this cranberry-vodka opening, and when the perfume fully unfolds, a caramel sweetness appears, but it's quite restrained. The longevity isn't impressive, and honestly, I didn't notice any sillage ))

To the fragrance: Avon Viva la Vita

The scent is sweetish, with light notes of powder and citrus. Quite ordinary, it'll do for everyday use. But, damn, it's not at all long-lasting and barely noticeable

To the fragrance: Zara Zara Oud

This perfume is simply delightful! It reminds me of Byredo's Black Saffron, but at the same time, it has its own unique twist. Saffron plays the main role here on a woody base, and light notes of raspberry add an interesting accent. The fragrance isn't the lightest, but it's pleasant to wear, and dissecting its notes is a real pleasure. My mood lifts when I wear it! )

What a shame I didn't come across this Si version. I think I might have liked the bright rose notes. Lately, I've been seeing the Si version in the red bottle more often. Maybe that's the one with the biggest demand right now 🌹

The fragrance is light and playful, as if made for a hot summer. The packaging also doesn't evoke serious expectations, so don't hope for anything grand. It's perfectly fine for a vacation, you can take it with you and not think about it, but time with it will pass quite pleasantly 🌞

I've read many opinions about this fragrance - daring, controversial, unlike others. I tried it several times in different places, hoping to catch what people describe in reviews, but unfortunately, I don't sense any of it. For me, it's completely flat; I don't smell any wormwood, coffee, or mint. Just a light floral-herbal scent without any bright accents that could be singled out. This is very strange, because I do smell the notes I like in other perfumes. It seems this is some individual peculiarity of mine that will remain a mystery to me, and it's sad because by description, it sounds wonderful

The scent isn't bad for work, but the longevity leaves much to be desired, I have to constantly carry the bottle with me 😒
