Belfiore is delightful and bright scent for summertime. There is nothing groundbreaking in it but it's well blended like all perfumes from Omanluxury. Apricot note comes from Osmanthus and that is the reason why it's not juicy nor fruity and it's not realistic Apricot. Osmanthus brings the soft and sensuous touch into this concoction. The same thing with Suede - that note comes as well from Osmanthus since it has woody and leathery nuances. So suede is not utterly realistic leather which is the case when that note is made synthetically or it comes from Oud for example. I think all that is the reason why people are voting this as synthetic. When The scent of Apricot and suede comes from Osmanthus they just appear that way and that doesn't mean the scent is synthetic. The creamy feeling which some people may find here is also from the same flower but I don't think this is creamy. I think it's rather slightly milky and lactonic but I want to emphasize that very lightly. About Gardenia here: it's not earthy here but sophisticated and it doesn't offer intoxicated experience like is the case in many perfumes with Gardenia. So if you have some problems with that flower you shouldn't overlook this one. Belfiore is not sweet imo, at least not like for example Royal Incense. Honey is moderate, not at all sticky sweet or realistic. This scent is excellent to wear at the office. It's not so powerful like many other scents from Omanluxury. It's soft, sophisticated with a velvety feeling in it. Anyway it doesn't give me any wow effect and I don't get obsessed with the scent but it doesn't mean that it's not good. It's versatile easy reach for sure. Thank you for reading and I would appreciate if you follow my IG: @ninamariah_perfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more. 🤗

Wanderlust is first crispy, green and fresh. If I were to go for a run or do some other exercise early in the morning outside, I would want to wear this scent. This is so energising. The fruits here are not sweet nor juicy fruity, Apple and Blackcurrant are not detectable like in the way they used to be in many perfumes. Fig makes the texture a little bit milky and otherwise the scent is slightly aromatic. The base is woody and smooth. As the scent develops, the crunchy, crispy essence softens first thanks to the fig, and then the Musk starts to change the scent in a velvety direction while still maintaining a greenish feel. I am surprised to see that the fragrance is not so popular among women. I don't think there is anything that makes this masculine or feminine, the scent is truly unisex. This review is based on a sample. Thank you for reading and I would appreciate if you follow my IG: @ninamariah_perfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more. 🤗

Flowerlush is joyful somewhat delicious yet fresh candied bouquet of flowers, which makes me think that I'm younger than I am. It’s shockingly pretty mix, fairytale like, deliciousness and candies being an abstract scene rather than realistically something to eat. If I had to describe this scent with colours I would say this has all the possible pastel shades in it. The citruses are not sharp or tart, but they are combined in a unique way with the flowers of the middle phase. Despite the youthful essence and beauty, the fragrance is surprisingly unisex thanks to the base where the woody notes balances the feminine side of it and light Western style Oud with Patchouli brings the depth to the composition. Musk completes the mixture to be sensual and attractive from the point of view of every gender. I don’t know from where some people get smoky or spicy elements, but there is a certain hazy steamy vibe in it like airy, subtle earthy element from Patchouli as well. This fragrance represents joy and happiness to me. It has an uplifting character that works regardless of the season. The blend is made beautifully like all from Omanluxury.

This is very different what I was expecting and actually it's better in that way. What I was expecting has been done so many times. Iris Perle is very fresh and green. It reminds me of my childhood when I used to walk barefoot on the grass on a dewy morning and the air was full of aromas from natural flowers. Violet leaf makes it a little bit soapy like but it's only a little whiff here and there. Mimosa never achieves its characteristic powderyness and Ylang-Ylang doesn't offer that utterly creamy texture which is familiar. Both of them will of course soften over time towards the drydown and some rough edges of the notes are gone. The overall scent is aromatic, a little bit herbal and it comes from Clary Sage. If you love Dusita's perfumes you are familiar with that note. On my skin Jasmine stays in the background as a supportive note. If thinking the name which means Iris Pearl it all make sense. The scent is clear and bright, like a dewdrop on an precious iris petal. If you understand and appreciate natural perfumes this is your thing. If not, I think you should't even think about this one. The performance is like in artisanal products which means that the projection is from weak to moderate and the longevity is great but the scent is is subtle, smooth, almost a skin scent the most of the time. The scent is rated in based off the quality which is great. Green, aromatic scent s are not so "me" so it would be wrong to rate the in based of my personal taste. Absolutely beautiful scent made in the most talented way. Iris absolue France Grand cru 0,3% ( extrait le plus cher au monde).

AMOUAGE LYRIC MAN Daniel Visentin 2008 And some words about Lyric Woman. This pair is a great example how you shouldn’t stare at the genders on the bottle. I would say that the both of them are totally unisex but at least Lyric Man is not more masculine than the women’s counterpart. I have written earlier a review of Woman like the comparison as well of an old formula vs the new one. Those are under Lyric Woman . Some words more of it (new): the more time goes by the more deep, dark, round and polished the juice is. The dark petals of the roses are easier to detect and the base is perfectly blended, the spices are still wrapping everything inside them. I love it more and more very time when I wear it. Lyric Man is a chameleon. When the weather is cold, it’s quite simple scent with citruses and roses and it feels very soapy. You may start to think that it’s feminine or “what a perfect scent for summertime”. But when the summer arrives and the weather gets warmer its personality changes. The whole scent is darker, more mysterious and more unisex. The base of Man smells familiar from Lyric Woman since they share all those 4 base notes which Man has (Musk, Sandalwood, Frankincense and Vanilla). The base creates complexity together with the spices but the overall aroma remains fresh - not exactly like in the cold weather but fresh anyway. Pine continues the freshly green aroma together with Galbanum and together they make a big difference between these two scents. Although the base does not achieve the equivalent complexity with Woman it’s enough to build a beautiful oriental Rose scent. It is simpler mainly because of there is missing the half of the base notes when Musk takes over and a refreshing citrus opening found in Man is enriched in W straight away with Cardamom and Cinnamon. The idea of Lyric Man is the same though: roses in a woody base with Amouage’s signature Francincense, everything covered in a spicy veil. If I describe the scent simply: In cold it's Roses with citruses in a clean musky base. In warm it's fresh spicy roses in distinctly oriental base. If you have been overlooking Lyric Man I recommend you to try it and make sure you experience it’s both amazing facets.

One of the rare from Clive Christian which has full bottle worthy uniqueness and the pleasant scent and I don't talk about the price, I don't think about the price when considering if something is full bottle worthy. Opening is very strong but intoxicating and it gets the positive attention immediately. It's mostly smoky and spicy with a little bit of subtle sweetness but it's not fruity. Just to mention since I love Peach so much and it's not present here as a Peach. The feeling is like sitting next to the fireplace. The smoke dissipates in 15 minutes and the scent evolves into the smooth blend of spices, not so boozy rum and a sweet, resinous, woody aroma from Labdanum. It's not leathery her at all. This is not a strong scent at all, it's only in the opening. The scent is not actually oriental at all but if thinking the definition of gourmand, it's not exactly that either so the name "gourmande oriental" is fine, it's some kind of mix of those styles made in a unique way. The scent is totally unisex, very wearable and versatile and it's office safe as well as long as you don't spray it at the office. The sillage is moderate and the longevity is good. This review is based on a sample. Thank you for reading and I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG: @ninamariah_perfumes

This is strange scent and it has been that always for me. First I hated it, after that I fell in love with it after that I just couldn't wear it anymore. So here you can read my journey with it. Part 1: This is a perfect story from totally dislike to love. This is how I experienced the scent from the first second until I bought FB and can’t get enough from it. 1. Not any good vibes but not tested on skin yet. 2. Testing: somehow addictive and intoxicating, it reminds me of rose and oud plus some fruits. This is a little bit spicy as well. Not sweet (I like sweets as well but this is not). Good quality, not synthetic feelings. 3. I have tested this now for many days on my wrist and I don’t know exactly what I’m thinking of this. I just know that I want to sniff it all the time. This is really intoxicating. It’s blended well because all notes which I can notice are not so outstanding. For example rose and oud is there but not like in Tiziana Terenzi’s Gold Rose Oud (just an example). 4. Ordered because the test vial was finishing and I wanted more. I’m hooked in this! I like because this is different than others. I don’t know other scent which is this kind of interesting blend. Part 2: After felling in love with it. Amazing juice, totally unisex, very complex “Join the Club's philosophy is that ingredients are kept a closely guarded secret, instead inviting the wearer to immerse themselves in the imagined world.” (From Xerjoff’s website) I have had hate and love -relationship with my all Xerjoff’s perfumes. First I have been relieved that I don’t want some particular scents but after I have given time for those and been testing those during weeks I have felt in love and I don’t see the end. I have sampled A LOT from that house and for me it has been the only perfume house whose perfumes needs weeks from me to realize how much I love those. This addictive perfume for my nose is blend of rose and oud for sure but there is woody, fruity and other floral notes as well. This definitely is not sweet at all despite of fruity accord. Those are dry fruits rather than juicy ones and the rose is definitely unisex, not at all like rose in the traditional rose scents. This blend is really thick and lasting power is great. When I sampled this I was thinking “this is definitely not for me” and what happened! Part 3: I couldn't wear it anymore The quality of the blend started to bother me. I couldn't smell any more the combination of dried fruits together with a synthetic Oud. I just need to scrub it off, every time. It was cloying to me and somewhat very heavy and headache inducing. The same reaction happened many times and I gave this perfume for my friend. Thank you for reading and I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG: @ninamariah_perfumes

Pretty overly sweet Honey together with Caramel and that combination is made wonderfully. It's smooth, soft and it has slightly baby wipes vibe which makes it velvety and a little bit powdery. In overall this is sweeter that Ceylon but the opening in Ceylon is much much sweeter that this one. If you like honey, this is definitely your choice and this is very easy concoction, Oud on my skin is totally hidden and Honey as well is pleasant. This short review is based on a sample.

Really strong sticky sweet, gooey, thick animalic honey and edgy animalic Oud which feels unpleasant and synthetic in the opening. I think that Honey here is more challenging than Oud. I have finally understood that it's difficult for me to like strong honey note in perfumes because that note is very difficult to do well. Here it's well done but it's just too much. This is more sweet in the opening than Mamluk in my opinion even if many has said Mamluk to be more sweet. Anyway until the drydown the sweetness will disappear a bit and Tea note will join Honey and Oud. If you like honey, you should definitely sample this. Quality in overall is good (nothing near for example Bortnikoffs or Ensar Ouds though) and this really is HONEY. No baby wipes like Mamluk. The drydown is smooth and Musk doesn't feel at all natural which I think is very sexy and sensual. Here in Fragrantica the note is "White Musk" but it should be "Deer Musk" and those two are totally different things. The blend is ok but this scent is not for me.
