The fragrance is very delicate, with a cold tuberose, in which cedar and amber are felt. It's not too bright, there's almost no sillage, and unfortunately, the longevity leaves much to be desired. But such restraint is the brand's signature. I adore tuberose and coniferous notes, so in this version, I like it the most; it's not overpowering or irritating, I'm ready to use it constantly 🌸

Mancera, in my opinion, looks quite heavy and all the fragrances seem to come from the same mold. But, judging by the reviews, their longevity is top-notch, and that's precisely what I lack in the fragrances I prefer. So I decided to test the entire brand and was pleasantly surprised when I stumbled upon this light and transparent fragrance. From the first notes, something floral is felt, similar to magnolia or lilac. Although, in fact, there is no lilac here, but it still comes to mind. I really liked this fragrance, although, according to reviews, it is not entirely typical for Mancera. I, however, adore woody, coniferous, and fresh fragrances, as well as transparent white florals. So among all Mancera's, this one turned out to be the best for me. And the longevity is simply gorgeous! Usually such fragrances disappear after 5 minutes, but this one lasts well

The smell reminds me of sour cream with apple, and there's also a tropical fruit - soursop. I don't like such sweet-and-sour fragrances, it reminds me of L'Imperatrice, but with less acidity here 😒

The scent really reminds me of Sancti by Les Liquides. It feels like pine resin melted in the heat, with a sweetish undertone. Forest flowers are also present, creating an after-rain atmosphere when the air is still damp and fresh. I just adore coniferous balsamic scents, always on the lookout for something new and interesting. I really like this smell too! But the longevity and sillage - that's just a disappointment. The scent is too quiet, disappearing from the skin in just 1-2 hours. It lasts longer on hair, but I don't perceive it, nor do those around me. Even if I douse myself in it, it's still not enough. I hope someday I'll find something similar, but with a powerful sillage, so everyone around feels like they're in a forest)))

The fragrance reminds me of something from childhood, like being at my grandpa's apiary. It has a lot of bitter herbs and a slight taste of wax, propolis, and even bee venom. On the skin, it gradually turns into sweetness, while from the blotter, you can smell herbs and wooden frames with honey

This scent is just awful, it screams Russianness, like it crawled out of a church. It smells like walking into an icon painter's workshop, where fresh wooden blanks stand, and around them are stinky solvents and varnish. The church notes are just overwhelming, and the smell of wood is so obtrusive it becomes unbearable. Something like benzoin or vanilla tries to soften it, but in reality, it only makes things worse. Opoponax is listed in the pyramid, but I don't even know how to recognize it when everything else is so disgusting 😩

The scent is reminiscent of a rose encountering something poisonous. It's bright and persistent, but if you don't overdo it, it's quite tolerable. The sweetness here is pleasant, but with a slight bitterness. I think such a perfume would suit a woman over 35 ))))
