Majestica

After two months or so, am getting a different profile. Initially a blast of fresh green apples, fresh cut grass and airy sweet flower (more like linden than freesia). Perhaps a niece to DKNY Green Apple. It gets a bit greener and grassier with time. Lasting power is not very impressive but then it's still great value for the price, smells quite natural as well.

Smells like citrusy air freshener. That's it. Seriously, i don't feel any lily of the valley or rose, or pepper, no musk, no violet, just a cheap citruss scent which is very strange. Could be that I got a fake perfume, but doesn't seem like it, because I bought it in a trustable store. Disappointed af...

Comparing it directly to the current formulation of Pleasures I will also say yes, this is a great dupe. Lasting power and sillage are in the same moderate range as well. I've worn them both over the last few weeks and enjoyed them pretty much equally. The cap is plastic that's too yellow, feels cheap and sits too tightly, but looks fine from some distance. Otherwise I can't complain about the presentation and love the scent. Very happy with this purchase.

like a white flowerbed after a late spring/summer rain. a little cloying to me on my skin — you know when it’s not very fresh yet and the air is kind of still and heavy — but how i love catching a faintest trail of it on someone’s clothes! maybe i just needed a little more pepper. we parted very amicably and actually, i find that it works best on my dad, so i’ll be the one to agree that it definitely can be unisex.

I haven't had 'Pleasures' for ages - sounds melancholic if pleasures is not the perfume :D But from scent memory it seems to me almost identical. A good one from Ajmal, nothing funky hidden in the notes.
