The scent is simply amazing, in my opinion, it surpasses Tea Rose. It's like light snowflakes on which small pink flowers with thorny stems bloom. It's refreshing, smells crisp, not too bright, but its sillage is simply gorgeous 🌸

To the fragrance: Nishane Ani

The fragrance from the No Boundaries collection causes EMBARRASSMENT, touching upon the theme of borders that divide peoples. It's inspired by the folk song "Sari Gelin," but here's the paradox: three nations-Armenians, Turks, and Azerbaijanis-all claim to be the authors of this melody. It's hard to believe that such beauty could be a source of dispute. The collaboration with Cécile Zarokian seems like an attempt to unite these cultures, but in reality, it only emphasizes the disunity. Created by a Turkish brand together with an Armenian perfumer, this fragrance, it seems, cannot shake off the weight of historical conflicts. Ultimately, it leaves a bitter aftertaste, as a reminder that borders are not only physical but also emotional

All you can smell here is sweetness. Vanilla, as if from a pastry shop, and even a little bitterness from almond. Yes, it's a bit heavy, but I really liked the almond in this fragrance

To the fragrance: Sapil Lumio Men

The fragrance is indeed fresh and bright, with a woody note and ozone, and citrus immediately hits your nose. But that green grass with a synthetic undertone spoils the overall impression. It feels like an eau de cologne, but not the most successful one

Gardenia and green notes create a somewhat soapy impression. Musk, of course, is also present, but it feels a bit too intrusive. The simplicity of this fragrance, alas, doesn't make it appealing. There's a certain sadness in this combination

The scent is simply incredible! It fills you with energy and joy. You can feel bright lemon, fresh watermelon, and juicy pear, as well as a light green note. It's truly something special! ))

To the fragrance: Jovoy Paris Remember Me

I ordered the fragrance from the Jovoy website and wasn't disappointed. Imagine: a cup of tea with milk, cardamom, and sugar, and next to it a sprig of frangipani. Ginger is noticeable for about 2-3 hours. After 6-7 hours, Remember Me becomes less spicy, and you can already smell milk and tea. In an interview, François Hénin shared how he worked in Central Asia with Cécile Zarokian. They were looking for inspiration for a new fragrance, trying different spices and incense. In a cafe, François ordered strong black tea with cardamom, milk, and sugar, and at that moment, Cécile caught the scent of frangipani, which reminded her of Haiti. She said: "François, I will one day reveal all the secrets of this flower," and he replied: "Why not add the aroma of this drink?" That's how Remember Me came to be. It's great that they didn't choose oud or bakhoor, but found something new and oriental 🌸

For those who appreciate vintage perfumes, this is exactly it. As I mentioned, these scents bring on nostalgia and really take you back to bygone eras. But, honestly, not everyone might be into them )
