To the fragrance: Blumarine Anna

The fragrance is truly delicate, perfect for young girls. I was surprised by how long-lasting it is - it stays on for a long time, especially for such a combination of apple and peony

To the fragrance: Creed Aventus

I heard this perfume was supposed to smell like blackcurrant, but in reality, it's more moss, birch, and patchouli. The moss is so earthy it's a bit sad. Unfortunately, the blackcurrant is missing, and that's disappointing, as it would have been much more interesting with it 😔

To the fragrance: Odetu Ruby Fougere

First you smell baked lemon with cinnamon, and then it seems like I caught notes of Khaltaat Night. It's not an exact scent, but more like the feeling of spicy, dried cherry 🍒

The bottle is simply gorgeous, always pleasing with its romantic design. But the fragrance itself was a miss. On the blotter, it smells fresh, with floral notes and greenery, even rose is detectable. But on the skin, everything changes: some kind of dead bitterness appears. I often encounter a similar effect from musk, although there's none in this perfume. Disappointing, to be honest

To the fragrance: Tom Ford Patchouli Absolu

The scent turned out quite chaotic. You can feel tobacco in it, as well as notes of fresh books and new furniture. The patchouli here is simply magnificent - it's cold and sharp, which I really like. Such an effect is rare. However, in my opinion, this fragrance is more suitable for men )

To the fragrance: Remy Latour Si Fleuri

I can't say I'm an expert in vintage fragrances, but I now have two bottles from the same brand, and the price was quite tempting. At first, I thought it wasn't for me, but I decided to try it anyway. Honestly, it's not my scent. The tuberose here is very bright and has a bitter undertone. It seems capable of overshadowing any other perfume. I feel a bit uncomfortable with it, but I don't want to get rid of it yet 🌸

At first, the scent seems quite strange, reminds me of something rotten, like the citruses have gone bad. There's a fermented feeling, but it doesn't smell like rum. However, when it starts to open up, it becomes much more pleasant. Vanilla and citruses create an interesting duo: the vanilla note isn't so simple; thanks to the citruses, it sounds more vibrant and lively

What about raspberry? I'd love to smell an exquisite and noble note of raspberry. Of course, other perfumers have already created such fragrances, but it would be interesting to know how it unfolds in...
