Marjaan

I’m suprised there is no fruit notes because this is definitely a fruity dream. It smells exactly like the tropical fruits - sun exotic juice to my nose.

Extremely unique! Once it's on skin it's an eye opener and head turner. When my daughter wore it, I couldn't stop going up to her a smelling her 😂

It's fruity, very sweet with an animalic undertone. There is def tuberose in the dry down. It's almost on the edge of being way too sweet! Personally I have the exact same thing with Nuha by Khadlaj. The fragances are not very alike except for being on the edge of being overwhelmingly sweet, it has the same mouthwatering thing/note in it that gets a little too much for me.(Maybe it's the tuberose) I hate <-> love it. Can see the tropical associations, it's a bit of an oddball mix of gourmand, floral with a very prominent dark undertone...the animalic undertone def doesn't make this a very light or clean/super fresh perfume imo. It's also def not gourmand. This could def getting cloying in the heat and personally see this as a sexy date night/evening spring/summer perfume. With the initial spray on it comes a across very youthful but again, the animalistic undertone in it does make this quite sexy and raw in a way, and makes this a little more mature. Performance(with 3 sprays) is about 4 maybe 5 hours on my skin and sillage; it does linger in the room and is def more than armslength. Imo more feminine.

The notes on Fragrantica are completely, absolutely wrong. There is ZERO tuberose in this fragrance (and I know. I love tuberose). This was meant to be inspired by TT Kirke. While I haven’t smelled the OG, I know even it doesn’t rate that well. Kirke’s notes are: Top notes: Passionfruit, Peach, Pear, Raspberry, Cassis and Sand; middle note is Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla, Patchouli and Heliotrope. None of those scents and yet all of those scents seem to have been thrown together and made a fake, rotten fruit salad. This is synthetic fruity sweetness. Completely linear and sickly sweet. This is reminiscent of play perfume you’d get as a child - I can only see a pre-teen liking (and suiting) this scent. It’s flat, loud, pungent, and offensive. Anyone who wears this in summer heat is making someone really uncomfortable.

This perfume was a blind buy based on the notes and very few reviews so I can't complain much. Marjaan with its intriguing blend of citrus, florals, and a surprising hint of sweet gasoline, it offers a truly unique olfactory experience that quickly subdues and fades. A sweet note persists and performs from initial spray and extends for a few hours on the skin comparable to a body mist from the BBW brand. Besides that I will not be challenged to like this fragrance. The bottle's design is attractive nonetheless.
