Cute, but too simple and not long-lasting at all. Just dry lemon peel used for all sorts of crafts. It really doesn't cut it as a standalone women's perfume(

To the fragrance: Benetton Colors Purple

The bottle, of course, is a delight to the eye. I'm just thrilled with its color. But it didn't work out with the scent. I usually like sweet smells, but this one disappointed. It smells somewhat artificial, like store-bought candies, and the flowers here are completely out of place

To the fragrance: Avon Incandessence Flame

The scent isn't bad, it has its own individuality. Although, I admit, it's a bit sharp. You can clearly smell musk in it, as well as peppery notes and white flowers. It definitely suits winter )

Morning lily of the valley, fresh and natural! No synthetic feel, didn't notice any metamorphosis either. The longevity, admittedly, isn't very high - just a couple of hours, but maybe that's enough for summer 🌼

Incredibly soft fragrance. A real mist, as if enveloping you. The violets are simply charming, and the irises add a twist. It's like fresh dew on the grass or a small bouquet on the table. Very delicate and pleasant. Good longevity, it will definitely last half the day

To the fragrance: Al Musbah Message

The scent is certainly dense, but at the same time delicate. It's like it envelops you, like a warm blanket. Violets and rose really sound harmonious here, but there isn't all that much oriental character in it. Loudness, yes, it's there, but it's more of an outer shell than its true essence

To the fragrance: Chanel №5

I already have several perfumes from this brand, and Coco was the first. This fragrance evokes nostalgia for classic scents that I haven't encountered in a long time. Honestly, I didn't think I'd ever smell such notes again. I just enjoyed it to the fullest 😊 Perhaps these aren't the old perfumes anymore, as perfume compositions have changed over the years. But still, in the new fragrances of this legendary brand, there's a slight echo of that era of French perfumes. I truly respect Coco and cherish every drop of it! When I bought Chanel No. 5, I expected a real miracle or at least an explosion of emotions, but it turned out to be quite quiet and modest, with a slight retro touch. I don't know how to feel about it yet, but one thing I can say for sure: it's a noble fragrance that deserves attention! 🌟

L'Occitane released several similar, faceless and short-lived citrus waters at the same time. It feels as if they were all poured from one shared barrel

It's not worth buying such a strongly-noted fragrance right away without testing it. It's better to try it first, and then decide if it suits you or not

Too much pepper, in my opinion 😅
