To the fragrance: Brocard Herbarium

A decent fresh summer fragrance, especially considering its price. You shouldn’t expect great longevity, a complex development or constant changes from it. To me, it’s more of a splash than an eau de toilette, and it doesn’t quite reach cologne territory either. On the other hand, it’s convenient to layer something longer-lasting and more expressive over it.<br><br>I wouldn’t call it a direct clone of Guerlain’s Fresca, but the direction is definitely similar. There’s also a resemblance to Ascania Green Leaf, which reminds me of an inaccurate version of Arden’s Green Tea. In Ascania, the tea feels warm and slightly sweet, while here it’s cold, fresh and completely sugar-free

This fragrance is simple, of course, but it didn't really appeal to me. The citruses at the start are too sharp, and the bitterness is just irritating. In the heart, it seems to be raspberry with peony, but that doesn't save it. The musk base - well, it's just okay. Overall, the fragrance isn't bad, but it's a bit soapy, which isn't pleasing at all. Longevity - about 4 hours, and it stays too close to the skin

I smell three main notes in this fragrance: lemon, iris, and vetiver. It's truly an amazing scent. It's feminine, unique, with a special charm and elegance

I don't smell it at all, it's like I haven't even applied it! If I do sense anything, it's just pepper, and that's it. But I read reviews online, and many say it's simply a gorgeous scent. Maybe I should try it one more time…

I didn't get the pumpkin, though I really waited for it. The smell is familiar to me, it reminds me of something gingery and woody, with notes of heliotrope, which I don't like. In the end, the scent started to resemble soap. I feel disappointed

To the fragrance: Kolmaz Marijuana

Scents of this type are definitely not for me. But, it seems I've strayed a bit from my usual fruity and berry notes. I took several decants from this brand to try. It's not entirely familiar, but, you know, I even like it. It's hard to imagine it as a perfume, but for a home atmosphere or a calming walk, it's better than many others. For me, the smell resembles smoke from burnt greenery. There's something unusual and attractive about it

To the fragrance: Oriflame Venture

What the hell kind of pleasant scent is this? First it smells like you just brushed your teeth with mint toothpaste, and you don't even feel the alcohol. And then, damn, it turns into some light green-fresh cologne, with lavender and a sweet aftertaste, which also has a woody note in the base. Honestly, I don't get what's good about it

Almond is clearly in the foreground here, and heliotrope quietly supports it. Honestly, I can't be around it for too long either. This scent reminds me of some strange evening where images of broken a...

Leather with a tobacco scent isn't for everyone, so it doesn't smell very pleasant and can't fully develop comfortably, that's understandable. I get the impression I'm in a smoky cafe where girls came...
