I really liked these perfumes, I fell in love almost immediately. I got them recently, my husband gave them to me for our little anniversary. First I noticed the round blue bottle - it looks modern and decent, totally giftable. The direction is floral-oriental. It smells pleasant, without being intrusive. Moonflower gives an interesting floral note and adds character to the fragrance

As a child, this fragrance attracted me with its brightness and florality, but now these very qualities cause me repulsion. The top notes are too loud, floral, almost chemical, and sweet. However, when they subside, jasmine and rose begin to emerge, and that's already more pleasant. The simplicity of the fragrance, on one hand, makes it an excellent choice for summer, when complex compositions are not always appropriate, especially in the heat. But in such weather, I want something lighter and fresher, not sweet. For me, Charlie White is associated with something childlike, carefree, like a world of fairy tales and cotton candy. I'm giving it a minus for being too intrusive in its presentation; too much is mixed into the first accord. But I can't really blame it, it's not its fault that we can't find common ground. I'm not going to give up and hope that someday we'll understand each other

I received this perfume as a birthday gift. At first, it seemed too sweet to me, I didn't even want to use it. It sat unused for a long time, I couldn't imagine wearing it. But, contrary to my expectations, it revealed itself completely differently - not cloyingly sweet, but with a light and fresh sweetness. Its sillage is cozy, with a slight tartness. Now I gladly wear it as a daytime fragrance in cooler weather

The scent is, of course, delicate and light, but this citrusy coolness is somehow too intrusive. Lilac, yes, it lasts a long time here, but I don't think it's quite what's needed for spring. In the end, it feels like a young girl on a date trying to seem grown-up, but in reality, she's still a kid. I don't know, maybe it's not for me, but it's all somehow unbearable 😒

The first time I tried it, I got the feeling it was a twin of Brocard's Herbarium. But on retesting, it became clear they are completely different. Herbarium reminds me of mint tea with lemon or a non-alcoholic mojito, while Green Ceremony is freshness with pronounced woody and spicy notes. It's more pastoral, like you're on an old dacha veranda where the summer sun peeks through the curtains. Clean, slightly damp planks, green tea, and zest - all this creates an atmosphere. Both scents are good in the heat, but Green Ceremony is also excellent for cold weather. Despite its green freshness, it evokes nostalgic thoughts of summer. SADNESS

Marketers seem to have put a lot of effort into creating this pyramid. But it's almost impossible to understand what scent is hidden behind it, because they've crammed everything and more into it. In the bottle, you can catch powdery irises with a slight sweetness, seasoned with pepper and ginger. It looks very elegant and restrained, without an intrusive sillage. As if whispering in your ear. Ideal for a rainy autumn in St. Petersburg. I also like that it's not too long-lasting. By the end of the day, the scent disappears even from clothes. I don't like changing sweaters just because I don't want to mix scents 😌

Brocard Sea Sparkle on a clear and warm day reminds me of a fresh breeze from the Baltic. It's the scent of clean seawater, without any dirt or algae. No drama, just a calm and gentle sea surface with a light whisper of the breeze. This fragrance is like a sip of water. And by the way, it doesn't break down into notes. Not at all. Perhaps somewhere at the edge of perception, you might catch a hint of melon. Crispy, cold, and juicy 🍈
