Now there's a sweetish fragrance in the Davidoff collection that's simply breathtaking. Why did leading perfume brands in the 2012-2013 season decide to shower all men with sugar? What awaits us next? What trends will there be in the 2013-2014 season? It's even scary to imagine… 😅

Citrus notes were added to the composition, and the fragrance became brighter and richer! Lavender now sounds even more expressive. Vanilla and powdery accents still remain in place. This combination creates a feeling of freshness and confidence!!!

I want to try it, but I don't remember mirabilis flowers smelling at all. I grow them myself in my garden, but I haven't noticed any scent. Curious to see what comes of this

Ah, my first love! I remember at 18 choosing serious perfumes, trying many famous fragrances, and this one turned out to be the most memorable. But, honestly, it tired me out a bit. Perhaps it was too intense for a first-timer. I got a mini-version and applied just a tiny bit, dreaming of a large bottle. And then, my loved one gave me 100 ml. They lasted for many years. The fragrance pyramid is impressive, and surprisingly, I can detect all the notes. Right now, I'm sitting here, having taken out the miniature my friend gave me. Yes, it starts with orange blossom, joined by violet and mandarin. And then - woody notes with juicy fruits, peaches, mmm, plum and cherry blossom are simply chic. Blackcurrant with acacia, gardenia with ylang-ylang - all this creates an incredible bouquet. Mimosa adds a honeyed sweetness to this splendor. And then a slightly powdery rose appears, but in moderation, tuberose, and a base of vanilla with tonka beans in an oriental style, cedar, sandalwood, and musk. The sillage is just amazing and the longevity is excellent. But you have to be careful with it, otherwise, it can be suffocating. And then you'll be in these perfumes like a vulgar girl. Otherwise, everything is wonderful, but for some reason, I can't wear it now. It's tiring. Although I've gotten used to it, I even sometimes wear Arabic fragrances, but I enjoy it more from the bottle. Or I apply it at home, just a tiny bit 🌸

Floral fragrances, it seems, are not for me. I'm not ready to perceive and accept them yet. I decided to try this perfume first, hoping it would be lighter than its darker-sounding sibling. But, alas, it turned out to be too bright, sweet, and even milky. Tuberose is clearly at the forefront here, and ylang, which I always detect, also didn't stay in the shadows. I didn't find tenderness and lightness in this scent; it's too feminine and intense. Not my choice

The scent is certainly bright, but it's just overwhelming. I don't know who created it, but definitely not for young people. The lily here is so annoyingly prominent that it's unbearable. I feel it on me all day, and I can't stand it. So, if you're not a fan of such smells, better stay away

The tea is a bit sharp, with bergamot, just like Earl Grey says. I just don't smell the other notes, I really don't understand what pomegranate is doing here or why it's needed 😒
