I adore Crespo's fragrances, and Bake didn't disappoint again. First comes lemon zest, then the composition turns into a lemon tart with vanilla and rum. The vanilla is warm, without a chemical edge. On my skin, an expensive tobacco nuance appears, while on my husband it smells more alcoholic and dessert-like. It barely changes after opening, only becomes quieter. It reminds me of Devotion Intense, but with less sweetness. It lasts about four hours on skin, then a light vanilla remains. The sillage is moderate and won't suffocate anyone nearby<br>The packaging is very striking, and the bottle is additionally placed in a black metal box with the Akro logo

The scent is certainly sweetish, but too delicate, as if it's not even there. It smells like some painstakingly well-groomed lady who just left the salon. For any season? Don't make me laugh! It's as fleeting as water, and that's just infuriating. Although, yes, it's generally pleasant, but this lack of longevity just kills all the enjoyment 😤

How sad it is to remember what once was. The summertime when I enjoyed this fragrance seems like it won't return. I carefully keep the remnants in the bottle, but they melt away each day. This light, powdery-spicy scent with salty notes and citrus freshness leaves behind only longing. It was so invigorating and unusual, and now only memories remain 😔

"Charivari" translates from French as "cacophony," and this name perfectly reflects what I experienced. I expected something bright and unexpected, but instead, I got something completely different. I wonder how long this fragrance existed? Probably not long, and now it's simply forgotten. And perhaps that's fair. I applied it in summer, on my wrist and elbow. At first, it smelled of lemon and pine soap, and then this soap suddenly started to resemble jasmine. I remembered Indian soap from childhood, but then another association immediately came to mind - a kindergarten where all the toddlers had done their business simultaneously, and the nanny was trying to clean up. Jasmine, indole, manure - that's what I smelled. And where are all those oriental notes that should have remained? Musks and sandalwood seem to have disappeared, and fruits and flowers also seem to have faded into the background. Maybe this is "Charivari" - a complete lack of harmony? I'm holding out hope that my bottle simply went bad, because a fragrance can't change that much. Or maybe it just didn't work on my skin. After four months of waiting, I got the impression that the perfume simply died 😔

Alcohol, yes, that's the first thing you feel. At first, it's right in your face, and then some freshness and sweetness appear, but with a slight alcoholic aftertaste. I wouldn't say it's terrible, but maybe I'd choose it for household chores. All in all, not the worst option!!

Alien Liqueur de Parfum surprises with its sound thanks to alcoholic and woody notes that create an interesting effect. Sweetish powder adds density, but doesn't overload the fragrance. In the end, on me it unfolds very gently and femininely. I like it! 🌸

What a disappointment! I spent so much effort trying to find where to buy this perfume, and now I have it. But, darn it, something's off. On me, it smells strange: instead of sweet apricots, I feel some dry, salty balsamic quality. Like some kind of medicine. It had already settled, but alas, I had to sell it
