A light little fragrance with persimmon and tart berries. Very pleasant, fresh and mood-lifting. A great option for summer

This fragrance, R.M. Gorbacheva's, used to be my favorite.)) But if you set that fact aside, it's actually quite good! I can't say I'm thrilled about this "outstanding" personality, but the fragrance definitely associates with her. And, you know, it really suits her! Elegant, subtle, and bright, yet very feminine. Despite its popularity and recognition, it's still a worthy fragrance, a classic floral-fruity scent. More of a spring, joyful, and positive vibe! I can't imagine it at any other time of year. I liked it )

I remember this scent being in the USSR! It was a gift for our teacher in 1986-87. Back then, the price wasn't small - 15 rubles, and not every woman could afford something like that. The smell was amazing: tart, fresh, with a slight bitterness in the base. These were perfumes for a confident, accomplished woman! I felt that back then, which is why I couldn't take my eyes off them. Then, of course, they disappeared from the shelves, the 90s came - a new era, new fragrances. But Nocturne remained in my memory forever! In the USSR, they really knew how to create perfumery, we just didn't appreciate it then, what a shame

Oh, if 19 KA is spring in a bottle, then the Crystal I'm talking about is like the end of summer with dying nature, but still filled with "summer scents"! 🌼 The sound of the perfume is simply amazing - so natural! It's the freshness of the morning air, and the humidity of the forest after rain, and even an association with dried grass, as if you're next to a haystack 🌾 It's herbaceous, but not green, rather dry. This scent perfectly conveys nature, and it's ideal for a trip to nature, to the forest! 🌳 So peaceful, relaxing, and calming! In it, you want to inhale the "gifts of nature" and enjoy every moment! I liked it unusually and simply masterfully! 🎉

The fragrance, of course, isn't a masterpiece, but rather an attempt to create something significant. The vintage version in the hexagonal bottle, which I wanted so much, turned out to be a disappointment. Many reviews, yes, but that doesn't make it better. For me, it turned out to be strange, and not in a way that attracted me. Upon first testing, the scent only caused me bewilderment. What even is this? A mystery I didn't want to solve. Childhood scent? Doubtful. I didn't feel any connection to dolls or drawing. It's more a reminder of what was, but not in a positive sense. A dedication to Louise Brooks? I don't know how that relates to joy. In childhood, maybe we rejoiced, but this fragrance doesn't evoke any positive emotions. It rather depresses and leaves an unpleasant aftertaste

The bottle, of course, is eye-catching - bright, joyful, but that doesn't save the situation. Everyone's only talking about “Kitties,” but the real problem is the skin! It just doesn't get along with musks, and in combination with cedar, it's simply awful. Don't blame the fragrance when that's the issue. Many Rodriguez perfumes are criticized for a similar scent! What is musk? Animalic, that's the whole problem!

Today I stumbled upon the rare fragrance Guy Bouchara Theosiris Extreme! I have a splash miniature, and the bottle is simply gorgeous! The scent is definitely evening and status-oriented, with a French character. It's truly unusual, especially in the top notes, which remind me of Habanita Molinard! Although they differ in the base: Habanita is more powdery and has leather notes, while here there are floral accents - orchid, tuberose, rose. Beautiful, the devil! I can't tear myself away from my wrist. Even though there's no leather in it, I still catch its note! This is my discovery of the year! They used to create real masterpieces, what can I say! The fragrance was created in the niche perfume house of Guy Bouchara, which is located in the heart of French perfumery - Grasse. This family business was founded by a charming pair of perfumers over thirty years ago with the release of the THEOSIRIS fragrance. The name is linked to Guy's fascination with Egyptian mythology, where Osiris is the supreme deity. But naming the fragrance after a god seemed too trivial, and after much thought, this mysterious name emerged, becoming the basis for an entire perfume series. The fragrance belongs to the floral and woody-musky categories. It consists only of natural essences and oils, which makes it extremely rare on the external market. Deep, rich, smoky-incense-floral with woody cedar accords. Orchid takes the lead here, while tuberose and ylang create flashes. In the sillage - a sandalwood-benzoin haze. This is a serious, statuesque evening fragrance that can be compared to Vison Noir Robert Beaulieu. In the mid-2000s, it received the "Extreme" suffix, and at the same time, the series was supplemented with two new fragrances - Theosiris Class
