To the fragrance: Roberto Cavalli Florence

Oh, what amazing patchouli! I just want to inhale them again and again. For me, this is one of the best modern chypres. These are truly some of the most luxurious patchouli in perfumery - soft, delicate, yet bright, but in a good way. The fragrance lasts long on me and leaves a trail. Yes, it's a bit heavy, but here's the paradox: it unfolds even better in summer than in winter. It doesn't oppress, doesn't irritate. Although, essentially, it's a scent for any season - that's how magnificent it is. The bottle is also a true work of art. It immediately brings to mind the stained glass windows of Florence cathedrals. The scents of Italy are clearly felt in this perfume. It's impossible to describe in words, you just have to feel it! By the way, as always, I bought it untested because of the bottle and was very satisfied! )

To the fragrance: Chanel Gabrielle Essence

I'd love to try at least a sample of this fragrance, I really liked it. In my opinion, it's better than the first "Gabrielle". This fragrance has a certain character, and I agree that it's more suitable for a confident woman, not a young girl. The notes of tuberose and orange blossom create a feeling of life in full bloom, as if you're in the very center of vibrant blossoms 🌸 Gardenia is also noticeable, with a honeyed and creamy touch. The composition is simply magnificent, very elegant, without excessive sweet nuances and unnecessary "embellishments". The musk here is soft, not intrusive

To the fragrance: Montale Oud Tobacco

The bottle, of course, attracts attention with its color, but the pyramid itself doesn't excite me. I want to know what's hidden inside, but there's a fear it might turn out to be a disappointment. I hope this fragrance won't weigh too heavily on my soul 😔

To the fragrance: Roberto Verino Gold Diva

Bought it today at Letual, but honestly, I'm disappointed. The price is okay, of course, but the scent is completely different from DG L'Impératrice. I've bought that one many times, and this version just doesn't measure up. Maybe it's suitable for spring, but I think it's too heavy and harsh. I don't know how to wear it

Yes, indeed, you can catch a connection to the original. However, this version seems simpler and lighter. It sounds modern, but unfortunately, the longevity leaves much to be desired

The fragrance truly surprises with its diversity. There are so many bright flowers in the pyramid that it's hard to miss them. But in the end, it turns into something fruity and rich, with a sweetish hue resembling ripe pulp. There's something creamy in it that adds a special softness. This perfume seems to transport you to the tropics, creating a vacation atmosphere ))

This fragrance, like Blossom Special Edition, is simply identical, even the notes match, but there's no musk here. The sweetness and powderiness make it a bit heavy. The bottle, by the way, is simply gorgeous 😍

Women just adore ordering this)) I'm a Micallef brand fan, almost all their fragrances suit me, but Ananda and I just didn't click. It's too simple and straightforward for perfumery of this level. The...
