To the fragrance: O Boticario Floratta Red

Too cloying, this scent is simply unbearable. Tuberose here is so obtrusively prominent that I don't know how to endure it. Every time I smell this note, I'm reminded of some awful sweet cookies. If you like modern sweet scents in perfumery, then maybe this is your choice, but I'll definitely pass on it 🚫

At first, I thought I was the only one who couldn't understand it. This fragrance is truly special. It's warm, but this warmth constantly changes. Sometimes you feel dry spices, and sometimes the sweetness of dried fruits with an oily hint. The brightness of its sound is simply amazing, and the overall mood creates a festive atmosphere. No wonder it's associated with the story of Gatsby

Gorgeous! I can't get enough, I just breathe and enjoy! This isn't just a freshie, but something multifaceted, not gourmand, and definitely not a childish marshmallow spray. You can feel the spirit of the old French school here. It reminds me of "Mahora" by Guerlain, "Maroussia" by Zaitsev, and "Blonde" by Versace - the latter, by the way, also stands out with its audacity, just like this fragrance. There's something from old Jean Patou, but with warmer notes. Although civet is not listed, I clearly smell it. This explains the animalic nuances that many note - from fur to fecal. Usually, it adds warmth to fruity and floral notes, and that's what the composition is built on. Overall, simply magnificent. I bought 125 ml on sale in a gorgeous purple package and now I'm thinking of getting another one - just in case. Longevity is a full day, and I don't know about the sillage, I haven't asked, but I only use two sprays: behind the ears and on the wrists. If you're looking for something statusy, intimate, and "old-fashioned with a modern twist" in French perfumery, you should definitely give it a try

To the fragrance: Alan Bray Ice Intro

A fresh men's fragrance, but I can't say it stands out in any way. There's nothing to criticize, but I don't feel like raving about it either. The citruses at the beginning sound quite familiar, then mint appears, and in the end, it all fades into woody notes with a light musk. It's like something important slips away, and only a slight sadness remains from unfulfilled expectations )

To the fragrance: Ajmal Facets of Her

This fragrance is fresh and light, perfect for spring-summer days. At first, you wouldn't say it's Arabian, it rather reminds you of something European. But after an hour, a delicate powdery note appears, which isn't intrusive. After two hours, a slight synthetic feel is noticeable, but it's not critical. It disappears after some time. The fragrance settles well on the skin, the sillage isn't too long, rather subtle. The longevity is pleasing, and the pineapple note with a slight tartness lasts the longest. Floral accents support it, and a woody note adds a bit of weight. Overall, the fragrance is simple but harmonious. Sometimes it seems a bit dry for its fruity-floral composition. An excellent choice for a warm workday, especially on a Friday 🌼

To the fragrance: Diptyque Ofresia

Some kind of nonsense. More like floral tartness with a slight bitterness of herbs. Somewhat similar to Olene, but this one is fresher. Less jasmine, not intrusive

To the fragrance: Slazenger Serve Men

This fragrance is just awful! It smells like cheap plastic with some tart greenery. The vetiver just jumps out at you, and that doesn't add to its appeal. Overall, the soapy and unpleasant feeling from it just lingers
