It opens up with a beautiful citrus mango scent profile and drys down to relaxing amber and patchouli scent. I will say it doesn’t last very long on skin for me personally (3-4 hours), however, that may change for someone else. In my opinion it is a tad overpriced, but it is truly a wonderful fragrance.
This scent is perfect!! Long lasting and radiates beautifully. It can be worn year around and could definitely become your signature scent.
Beautiful Lime heavy opening with a little similarity to Aventus In the Dry Down! Simple but super effective!
This is my reference amber. Dry, spicy, herbal, camphorus amber fragrance. It's an all timer in my opinion. If you're into fragrance, it's a must try imho.
You're on a hayride through a dry late spring meadow and someone ahead lit a cigarette and you caught a whiff downwind. What makes this scent so special is the addition of a light dusting of vanilla, the choice of florals, on a dry hay accord. For under $100 it's an amazing buy and I own nothing like Erawan in my collection.
Stoked to try Issara and Anamcara next from Dusita
Love the linear woodsy peppery scent. Very mature and masculine. A green green, but for the price it doesn‘t outshine other more affordable ones. Like Coach.
Bright citrus on the top that dries down quickly to a fresh woody green similar to Haltane but at a fraction of the price. Deserves a spot in the rotation.
This scent has some nostalgic memories for me, but is far too sweet floral now
Nope… powdery plastic with a decent hint of vanilla incense
Nope… plastic, lipstick, medicine. And expensive.
Such a super sexy scent. Powdery, floral, a little bit gourmand.
This perfume could easily be classified as niche given its quality.
Soft romantic floral vanilla. Very beautifully constructed. it’s not going to keep your brain engaged with its complexity. But Every simple layer has good ingredients. The vanilla is not syrupy or too sweet. the orchid is an interesting companion to the vanilla. not a groundbreaking combination. My favorite part is the slight cinammon peru balsam. Overall a very pleasant experience. Classy, feminine leaning , versatile scent. Would have considered a full bottle of the price wasn’t not so exorbitant.
No joke this is an amazing fragrance
I've got decants of all the LV fragrances and this brand in general is an amazing dupe house of all the LV scents. some are better than others, but this one is easily the best.
It's slightly sharper in the middle of the fragrance but initial spray to the dry down this puts off limmensite vibes. It's a very good ginger scent so if you're not into that maybe stay away.
it lasts a whole 12-hour shift at work guys say they can still smell me in the locker room when we're leaving
for the price this is a gem of a fragrance
Loved the first 20 minutes of this as it blended into a nicely tropical floral cocktail. Unfortunately the drydown is not floral anymore but mostly amberbased with alot of benzoine. Unsure if the tester bottle was too old, but would not purchase a bottle for this price because the drydown was rather disappointing.
This was Tom of Finland before ELDO changed the name and marketing of this fragrance.
My favorite suede perfume done by one of my favorite perfumers. It takes the powdery suede profile of Bvlgari Black and enhances it in every way. Sexy, creative, laid back and maybe a little artsy. Funky fun sort of scent. It's incredibly wearable for anytime and season, but this would shine during cooler months. This is worth a try if you were a fan of the discontinued Midnight in Paris and Bvlgari Black. 10/10 for me and I don't throw the number around lightly.
Byredo's Animalique has a similar vibe, but more hot plasticky and a little more one dimensional.
So Sì Passione Intense is not my scent, but it’s totally my mom’s vibe instead. 😂
In short: it’s a perfectly fine perfume, but not a standout in my book. Great for someone who enjoys sweet, fruity elegance, but I’ll stick to the original Sì.
In detail: don’t get me wrong, it’s not a bad fragrance at all. I actually do like it, just not enough to make it to part of my regular or any collection. Compared to the original Sì, which I prefer (and I love!!!), this one feels a little bit expected? Like, it doesn’t 'wow' me or bring anything super unique to me.
It leans heavily on the fruity-sweet-floral side (a little bit too much for me), which might be perfect for someone who loves that classic, slightly bold feminine scent. But for me, the woody notes (which I was really hoping for in this intense version!) are barely there. And I'm disappointed with that, because it could be a nice scent break. Maybe that’s why it doesn’t feel quite right for me.
By a long way the best perfume from this house. It's versatile and beautiful, with great performance without shouting. It's one of the ones which doesn't seem like a joke perfume somehow.
A winning finish with vetiver. The road to it is also beautifully laid out, spicy and sensual. Perfect for the transition from winter to spring.
A floral spicy powdery woody fragrance. Composed well and something really special, but it’s a fragrance you need to get to know. On my skin the powdery floral note really takes centre place something I don’t normally like, but it’s well done. After the flowers you get a beautiful mix of spices and warm notes. it is a well put together fragrance and as with all Mystikum fragrances it pushes the boandaries of perfumery and unisex fragrances.
Salty marine air and it’s raining, or just rained. Subtle earthy, herbal, aromatic touches of loam and grass. Could be nighttime or just a grey day. Feels both natural and transparent. Like most Aesop scents, it wears lightly: close to the skin and fairly ephemeral. A bit too streamlined to be worth the price, but still lovely. Not unlike Perfumer H’s Ink, but airier and more seashore.
It is a very bright take on the TdH DNA, feels more casual. Really great spring or summer scent that shines in the heat.
Al Haramain’s L’Aventure is one of the “Big 3” clones of Creed Aventus (the other two being Armaf’s Club De Nuit Intense Man and Montblanc Explorer) and frankly, hits very near the mark, especially considering it’s an order of magnitude less expensive than the scent it’s duping. Here we open with a big dose of fresh bergamot taking the place of the pineapple in Aventus, and from there it follows a pretty by-the-numbers dry down one would expect from Aventus. The smoky birch joins in shortly after the bergamot, with oakmoss, musk and ambroxan providing the base.
Like with most Middle Eastern houses, performance is bonkers, with immense sillage and easily 12+ hours of longevity, so go easy on the sprayer.
Chowards scented gum, incense ash, and petrichor.
