To the fragrance: Prada Candy

I don't know what to call it, but it's just a nightmare. Even in a small amount, it feels like a heavy curtain pressing down. Too sweet, just cloying, some terrible mix. The longevity and sillage are, of course, good, but that doesn't save it. I absolutely don't like it, it's too intrusive, filling all the space around

To the fragrance: Benetton Energy Games Man

a melon scent with bright pineapple notes. it quickly fades, leaving behind a woody-amber base. overall not bad, but the brand has more exciting options

Something's off with this scent, although it's essentially similar to the previous ones. I don't like Rooibos tea because the combination of herbs and fruits creates strange sensations. It feels like there's a lack of freshness here, and there's a hint of stale fruit. Although the base, as always, sounds bright and cool, just like in other Bombshell fragrances 🍃

To the fragrance: BYTWO Incense

This fragrance is simply a must-have for anyone truly passionate about perfumery. Every connoisseur should try it at least once in their life. I'm not a fan of frankincense, and honestly, I don't like it. But I was lucky enough to become the owner of this perfume. Why did I fall in love with it? Because the frankincense isn't felt in the first notes; it unfolds later, and it's simply a magnificent, non-churchy version. It's just delightful! Now it holds the first place in my personal fragrance ranking. Nothing superfluous, nothing irritating, everything sounds harmonious, the base is very rich. After this fragrance, others somehow fade into the background

To the fragrance: Nabeel Maaroof

I only liked it in what remained after I washed off all that intrusive sweetness. That's when you get the scent of apricot jam with a pit or almonds in honey. But as soon as you apply it, it becomes too cloying, even bright citruses don't save it from this nonsense

To the fragrance: Korres Black Pepper 2020

In my opinion, this fragrance is clearly masculine. It combines spicy accents and aquatic notes, with a clear emphasis on lavender. Very bright and rich, it gives an impression of audacity. Its longevity and sillage are impressive, truly, this is a purely masculine option)))

This fragrance, though inexpensive, is truly impressive. Instead of chasing trendy brands, it's worth paying attention to forgotten but interesting options. My friends note that it reminds them of their mom and sunny days. There's something intimate and warm about it. It's soft, with notes of vanilla and citrus, and the vanilla here isn't sweet, but distinctly perfumery. It unfolds very gently, and if it seems harsh at the start, give it a little time to "rest"

How distinctly marigolds are heard here! Often they don't add lightness to a fragrance, but rather break through dense walls, as if trying to assert themselves 🌼
