To the fragrance: Betty Barclay Pure Style

I tried this scent three times, and the first two times I didn't even notice when they ran out, that's how much they captivated me. As Lola already mentioned, it's really light and fresh. The first note I smell is lily of the valley, and that scent stays with me until the very end. I'll probably buy it again soon, I already miss it 🌸

To the fragrance: Carner Barcelona Tardes

Oh, how awful it is, simply unbearable. Sweetish-leathery, almondy - is that all there is to say? In the sillage, it's completely different, but on the skin, when you inhale, you only feel these disgusting leather notes, bitter and sweet at the same time. I don't understand how anyone can love it, it just repels me. Maybe on a man, but for me, it's definitely not unisex. Describing it is a real torture, I struggled with this review for a long time. The longevity is good, of course, but that doesn't save it. It smells somehow strange and very expensive, but I don't need that ))

I expected a lot from this fragrance, but alas, it didn't work out. The leather note sounds truly luxurious and natural, that's undeniable. The iris is also pleasing - fresh and damp, but here's the problem: they disappear so quickly that I don't get to enjoy them. Instead, some wet wood appears in the foreground, which seems to decide to stay until the very end. The longevity, by the way, is excellent, that's true. In the end, on my skin, the beauty of the leather and iris vanishes into thin air, leaving only the monotonous smell of damp wood. This fragrance didn't suit me, but at the same time, it's very unusual and mysterious 🤔

The fragrance I tried is indeed sweet and very feminine. You immediately feel the jasmine, which was once my favorite. This flower stands out against a candy-like sweetness. The perfume combines a delicate floral bouquet with richness. The longevity is pleasing, but the feeling that I've encountered something similar before doesn't leave me. In the end, I think it reminds me of Yves Rocher Tendre Jasmin 🌸

The fragrance is really pleasant, it's subtle and beautiful. I felt all the stages of its development. In the beginning, it's fresh and juicy, most likely thanks to citrus and basil. In the second stage, it becomes a bit drier, perhaps it's hay and violet. And in the final stage, interesting notes appear, reminiscent of pickled cucumbers, which seems to be vetiver. It has a beautiful sillage, and its longevity is simply excellent. A very unusual scent, it captivated me, even these 'cucumbers' don't bother me. I noticed that fig fragrances often resemble each other, they always convey it similarly, just somewhere it's drier, and somewhere juicier. I recommend trying this fragrance and will definitely continue my acquaintance with Vilhelm Parfumerie fragrances

To the fragrance: Estée Lauder Very Estée

I bought a 30 ml bottle. I hadn't encountered this fragrance before. Honestly, I expected more powdery notes or a cosmetic scent from this brand, but alas, I found nothing of the sort. In my opinion, this fragrance has too much freshness. It lacks… everything for me. It seems too simple, both inside and out. Most likely, I'll be selling or exchanging it. By the way, the longevity is pretty good!!!

To the fragrance: Loewe Aura Magnetica

You know, one time I decided to spend some extra money and went to Letu. I thought I'd buy something new, something sweet, maybe I'd like it. But, damn, how much time I spent there! All the smells mixed together, my head started to ache. And then I saw some unfamiliar brand, I don't even remember its name. The first fragrance I tried was Loewe Aura Magnetica. Against everything else I had smelled before, it certainly stood out. But it didn't stand out in a good way. It was so intense it made my head spin. I bought it, but quickly got rid of it. It just suffocated me too much with its obtrusiveness and something I couldn't quite grasp. It remained in my memory as something musky and strange

The quality is definitely there, but I just don't want it all to turn into a mess 😤 I'll keep getting to know them, but with caution

Mom always styles her hair with hairspray. That's why I get this association

I just saw the comment now, and I must admit, I'm a little embarrassed. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the 2018 version. But I definitely plan to try it. I wonder if they are similar. As soon as...

It just didn't work out for me with this fragrance. I tested it on my skin only a couple of times, and the impressions remained the same. In the end, I decided to get rid of it and don't regret it))) ...
