To the fragrance: Stellary Patchouli Absolu

The fragrance, overall, is quite pleasant and feminine, but calm. It smells mid-range, more like something from luxury or mid-market than niche perfumery. Patchouli, unfortunately, is not felt at all, only in the name. On my skin, it reminded me of Armani Si, and their pyramids are indeed very similar: blackcurrant, freesia, rose, patchouli, vanilla, ambroxan, and woody notes. Bergamot, neroli, and wormwood, unfortunately, I don't smell

Sweet, powdery scent. Vanilla, coconut, and frangipani. The fragrance is, generally speaking, simple but long-lasting. I don't really imagine it for summer, it's too sweet for hot weather )

The fragrance opens with bright notes of peaches and ripe mandarin, like a sparkling glass of champagne. The first impressions are truly delightful, they are juicy and vibrant. But then, unfortunately, it disappointed me. Gradually, the scent becomes drier, with woody and powdery accents, and a strange salty nuance appears, which isn't entirely clear. In the end, for me, this fragrance turned out to be quite complex and ambiguous

The scent is powdery, but with a clear alcoholic note and the bitterness of wormwood. The longevity, by the way, is average. The rose here seems slightly powdered, and in combination with herbs and resins, it creates an interesting sensation. I can't figure out if I like it or not )

To the fragrance: Tom Ford Soleil Brûlant

The smell, of course, is beautiful - oriental, with smoky woody notes. You can feel the resinous quality, and the brand's base is clearly discernible. But, damn, it reminds me so much of Naxos by Xerjoff! In my opinion, it's the same fragrance, just in a Ford package and with slightly different accents

This chypre truly stands out with its unusualness and beauty. At first, I couldn't detect anything but a sharp chypre accent, but soon I started noticing delicate notes of rose petals, and then the sweetness of honey. The fragrance is rich, yet not intrusive and doesn't cause discomfort. It smells very appealing and, without a doubt, is worth much more than its price

To the fragrance: Montale Velvet Flowers

Rose with fruity notes, with a light accent of saffron. The woody-musky base leaves a feeling of some roughness

The bergamot here is indeed bright and powerful, but it feels strange somehow. At first, it seems too intrusive, and then you suddenly realize it's not that simple. It's interesting how it develops, b...

Someone is probably enjoying a vacation in Turkey, burdened by this fragrance. But what it might mean for the Turks themselves - that's a question worth asking them
