This fragrance was a real discovery for me in the 90s, when I was only 17. Against my red hair, it smelled simply incredible, full of passion and temptation. Tuberose is key here, and sweet orange and vanilla create an atmosphere you want to dive into again and again. Sandalwood, rose, jasmine, and acacia add mystery, and this scent truly makes you stand out from the crowd 💫 Perfect for romantic encounters where there's a chance for more. Men just lost their minds over it. Even after 20 years, this fragrance is still relevant, but it's important to find the original. It's easy to distinguish by the bright notes of tuberose and acacia, which seem to leap out of a dense cloud of sandalwood and vanilla. Fakes, however, smell too sweet, with a slight hint of jasmine and rose, but with some elusive tartness

Oh, how pleasant it is to feel it! This fragrance envelops you like a light shawl gently touching the skin. It has a subtle pear and a hint of lemon, and orange blossoms add a special touch. Simply a gorgeous perfume! It immediately makes you want to update your wardrobe and fix your hair and makeup. They say it's unisex, but for me, it's clearly feminine, I don't see it on men. It reminds me of a candy that grew up and became a real beauty. On the skin, it smells warm, and on clothes, it's a bit cooler, with hints of bergamot. The sillage is simply captivating, feeling it is a true pleasure. No powderiness or theatricality, just elegance and lightness with character. Neroli Amora for me is a celebration, spring, love, and dreams 🥂

This scent is super personal, like a secret you don't want to share with just anyone. It's really intimate, but unfortunately, it didn't suit me. The smell reminded me of a bus, marigolds, and a bit of alcohol. This "African Ball" turned out to be too heavy and suffocating for me. The marigolds definitely dominate here. But there's a positive side: you can tell the scent is complex and unusual, you don't often come across ones like this. If I saw it on someone else, I'd definitely notice it and wonder with interest who chose it. I bought 2 ml and gave it to my sister )

The fragrance is simply amazing! Sweet almond milk combined with cinnamon creates an incredible feeling of coziness. You feel as if you're wrapped in a soft blanket, infused with a sweet almond scent and a hint of cinnamon. But wearing it out might not be the best idea: it's too much like a dessert, too obvious and edible

This fragrance reminds me of Infusion d'Iris, but without the citrus notes. They have a similar direction, and the perfumer is the same. For me, they can totally replace each other )

I'm gradually starting to discover our perfumers. Often, I come across fragrances that are very different from what I'm used to. In this case, on me, the scent reminds me of a galvanized bucket with cold water, which creates a special atmosphere. I immediately recall my childhood, when grandpa would pull a bucket from the well, and we'd drink right from it. This perfume somehow touches the soul, it's really sweet ❤️

Citrus fruits, soaked in sea salt, create a feeling of freshness, but with a spicy accent. This fragrance truly has a pronounced masculine character, although it unfolds especially well on bold and slightly brutal girls. It feels like it's capable of inspiring and giving strength! 🌊
