Previously jasmine was light, but now it gives me a headache. Favorite line, but had to part. Disappointment

The jasmine here is just amazing, it's true. Sometimes it can be too sharp or even have a dusty undertone, and sometimes too sweet. But in this fragrance, it's so delicate, light, and unobtrusive, simply refined. Now I dream of adding it to my collection, because I adore jasmine 🌸

To the fragrance: Tesori d`Oriente Ayurveda

I've heard this before: citrus with a cold tint on a woody base, and pine notes are barely noticeable. It caught my attention at first, but quickly disappeared from the skin - less than an hour, and it was gone. Only bitterness remained.

To the fragrance: Miller Harris Violet Ida

The fragrance has an interesting gourmand shade, but it doesn't descend into banal and sharp notes of baking or food. It's more of a sophisticated and intelligent gourmand scent, with a balsamic sweetness, a light vegetal accent, and an aftertaste where carrot can be felt

This rose fragrance is too sour for me. It stands out, but the sourness here isn't fresh; it's more dry, with notes of frankincense. I think it's because of the oud. I don't like this kind of rose - it's not delicate and, in my opinion, doesn't suit most people. Only true rose lovers will truly appreciate this scent, as there's really a lot of it here

The fragrance development is prolonged, and the first thing you notice are sweetish cherry notes, as if they're entwining around wood. It seems there really is cherry in the composition. The scent resembles a woody air freshener with a leather accent and a fruity-floral hint. Nothing special, more of an everyday option, but it definitely won't suit every outfit. From the middle to the very end, rose with spices adds a tartness, and it clearly dominates over the oud 🌸

To the fragrance: Carner Barcelona Tardes

Tardes, in my opinion, should be first among fragrances, not Cuirs. The sweetish almond at the beginning is a bit confusing, but maybe that's just my perception. Overall, this fragrance is clearly more for women, and I completely disagree that it's unisex!!! There's some kind of mystery, I can't figure out if I like it or not

Good afternoon! We understand that a rich rose with peony can indeed feel heavy. In cooler weather, the scent may come across softer

Good afternoon! Thank you for the review! Glad you liked it, although there is rose - it's delicate here, with fruits and musk
