Zemfira, from Bortnikoff was released in 2019. The perfumer behind this creation is Dmitry Bortnikoff. It has the top notes of Bergamot and Pink Pepper, middle notes of Cedarwood and Rose, and base notes of Agarwood (Oud) and Sandalwood.
I love roses. I love them bright and I love them dark, airy and heavy, red and green, sweet and sour, powdery and crystal clear, fresh and dried ones. I love all of them! Zemfira is a beautiful somehow light and bright (but with good performance) Rose Oud which you can wear easily year around. Fresh natural smelling roses are stars with mild oud in the background. Unlike the first collections, this 4th collection is floriental and has no animal ingredients except ambergris in it. Other parfums in this collection are Sir Winston and Symphonie de Néroli. This is a well-made rose perfume with citrus and honey shades in the base. It’s not sweet anyway or in any kind of way “jammy” like some people like to say which I think is an expression for very sweet and mellow rose mostly with Vanilla. I can’t describe well enough that intoxicating feeling which I get from this from the evocative opening until the dry down but it’s unique. I think it’s somewhat tart undertone which is one of the charasteristics of Vietnamese Oud. I have many rose perfumes and have tried a lot of them, this is one of a kind. If you like powerful and extremely persistent rose perfumes with a very light honey-oriental sillage, I think you will love this one. This is very easy level entry to Ouds but it’s noticeable though. 🌹Top notes: Bergamot and Pink pepper 🌹Middle notes: Rose de Mai, Hybrid Tea rose and Atlas cedar 🌹Base notes: Bengal sandalwood and Vietnamese Oud Thank you for reading and I would appreciate if you follow me IG @ninamariah_perfumes
