To the fragrance: Nike Blush Woman

The fragrance is really pleasant, the white flowers in it sound very delicate, and powdery notes add lightness. The fruity accents are sweet and sour, but the longevity, alas, is disappointing. I wish such a scent would stay with you longer, because it's so good! 🌸

This rose seems slightly powdery, but there's nothing special about it. I can't pinpoint what exactly is appealing about it. It's simultaneously original and completely banal, which makes it interesting. How is that possible, I don't understand. It's like an old idea reinterpreted, but in the end, the same boredom remains. It's hard to grasp how all these qualities coexist in one bottle

To the fragrance: Givenchy My Couture

I got this fragrance, and it's just pure bliss! The green floral notes smell so fresh, lots of lily of the valley and almond, and a hint of unripe blackcurrant adds an interesting twist. Spring isn't coming anytime soon, of course, and I'm in no rush, but I'm sure it'll unfold absolutely stunningly in the cold air

To the fragrance: Clean Smoked Vetiver

Vetiver here, of course, sounds beautiful, but something about this fragrance isn't right. The citrus nuance next to it seems too intrusive, and pear juice and quince add a certain cloying sweetness. The result is something that doesn't inspire delight, but rather leaves an unpleasant aftertaste. The fragrance appears casual, but in reality, it seems to hide its true essence. Alas, expectations were not met (((

To the fragrance: Demeter Martini

Listen, I've always been a bit worried about the smell of alcohol in perfumes, because on my skin it usually smells too strong. This fragrance, unfortunately, was no exception. There's a lot of alcohol noticeable

The smell is really weird and unusual. Resinous notes with a thick powder create a heavy feeling, and the clove just bursts to the front. This isn't for me, it's too grown-up and unsettling, almost like it's trying to force itself on you 😔

To me, this leans more masculine. It's got too much sharpness and bitterness 😒

Well written, but I lacked specifics about the budget. A wardrobe sounds nice, but in reality each bottle costs like a plane wing.

Reviews can sometimes be very misleading 😒

The scent's probably not bad, but the longevity leaves a lot to be desired. When I tested it, I couldn't even smell it on my wrist at all. Honestly, such a disappointment
