Frankie

I have to start by saying I'm really ashamed I bought this perfume. I was part of the huge group of people disliking Ariana Grande and not necessarily giving her credit for her work. But I just couldn't resist, this bottle is sooo beautiful, I've never seen such a thing, it's the most gorgeous I have ever seen ! I had to own it and that's why I ordered it in shame. In real life I was a little bit disappointed because the packaging is a bit cheap like the box is not made of very good quality cardboard and the bottle is lightly irregularly paint coated. For the price of € 50,00 I expected better quality but anyway that Pom-Pom ! I love it ! It's the cutest part it's so perfect ! Now if I have to review the scent, I wouldn't say I'm disappointed as I didn't expect anything from it, I just bought Frankie for the bottle. But I must say it's nothing special, it doesn't smell particularly good. It's just ok. When you first spray it, you get a huge splash of non-descript fruits. Very syrupy like fruits covered with thick honey. I don't get any pink pepper in any stage of evolution. The fruity opening lasts for around one and a half hour after what you get after are very synthetic cedar wood and sandalwood notes but you don't even have the time to experience them as they disappear in a few minutes like 10 max. The drydown is pure sugar and when I say pure sugar it's like syrup sugar, and a very intense one ! But what's great is that you also get a nice vanilla orchid smell which balances the composition a little bit. The musk is not that noticeable but it's there that's for sure. It's very nice and after one hour or so you get back some slight notes of fruits syrup along with the sugar and the orchid smell. I'd say it last for about 2 more hours as a skin scent. The total longevity would be around 5 hours but the perfume really doesn't project nor does it stay longer on fabric textile. As a conclusion I wouldn't say it's a bad perfume, it's just ok, nothing special or groundbreaking. And supposedly it wasn't aimed to be anything special, just a limited edition scent. :) As for the gender label I don't have any opinion since I never label a perfume as more feminine or masculine, I really don't care. But gosh this bottle is to die for, I'm I love ahah ! It even makes me want to buy the original Ari perfume just for the white Pom-Pom ahahah ! Colour: ORANGE

Oh, what a little gem this is. I have a number of Ariana Grande perfumes in my collection, so when I was able, I purchased a few bottles of this. My husband took my bottle of Cloud. There was no way I would've used it. Frankie is different. It's unisex like Cloud. But it has a fruitier, softer, fresher momentum. Once settled, it goes quietly sweet, with lips of musk. I'm definitely going to be wearing this one. And I know I will have to hide my bottles and buy my husband one of his own!

It smells delicious and woody to me. Unusual aroma with hints of pear, orchid, and sugar. Undoubtedly, there is a nightclub vibe. Longevity and silage are average. However, generally, the scent is still sweet like candy. Compared to most other unisex releases, it has a more classically feminine scent, is pleasant to the nose, and makes a bigger impression. Definitely must try!

Ok wow this is beautiful...one of my favs and most complimented. the pear feels aquatic and the apricot feels a little dirty/lactonic/boozy. There is salt and spice. Tickles my nose wonderfully and there is a touch of heady musk. I wanna keep smelling it. Have a decant, but I will need a bottle soon I already know!!

a mature unisex fruity floral that i think you could definitely wear year round 🍊🌸the rarity of this fragrance definitely influenced me, but i think i found a new favorite, it’s a shame it’s been discontinued because it’s amazing! i found mine at burlington, i would definitely pick this up if you can find it.
