Twin for Women

As mentioned by a reviewer this is barely a perfume,and I looove it just because of this I've always loved how nivea creams smelt like but unfortunately I couldn't find nivea's perfume,so I tried to find a similar scent..as I grew up I detected that smell in other creams but with slight differances,some were like a rosey version of nivea,some were peachy,some were almondy and I loved them all.so I concluded that this is not particularly nivea scent which I'm so much into it,I love all creamy smells,reminding just out of shower and then moistened skin,a clean your own skin but better fragrance,I knew I should search for a musk,iris maybe some rose and peach combo In this search,I got to know lots of great perfumes,narciso rodriguez essence,by kilian flower of immortality,valentino rock'n rose dream & etc,but I just shouted with joy that I finally found my cream fragrance,when I tried azzaro twin Azzaro twin is a simple perfume,ofcourse not linear,opening part may seem plasticy for skin's that can't get along well with almond in perfumes,there is great amount of peach and blackcurrent blended with some almond in the opening,making you think of something sharp or plastic but it soon settles down to a musky,almondy goodness,smelling just like a lovely clean skin,washed with an almondy dove soap,then moistened with a body lotion,those lotions that seem to consist some rosey,peachy undertone,no one will think that you've used a perfume,still you're gonna receive lots of comments on how lovely and clean you always smell and they will ask your body lotion's name not your perfume's and I sometimes really want to smell good,but not perfumed,azzaro twin is great for those times,lingering on your skin(I don't like to use it on clothes,I feel like my clothes are moistened with lotion,haha)for more than 10 hours,with soft to moderate sillage,it's a skinscent but you can get a whiff of it after hours of application and it really feels good I always thought whenever I find my cream fragrance,I will use it as an after shower perfume,but now,I still use my white musk after shower and tend to use this almond cream,before sleep,in university or even in my romantic intimate times,most men love it,specially men that don't like heavy perfumes and love simplicity and elegance the same time I think azzaro twin is suitable for mild temperature,not too cold or too hot,it becomes invisible in cold temp and in hot days,initial sharp fruit notes linger more and ruin it's calm,creamy softness..another point to mention is,this is not soapy at all IMHO,creamy?yes,clean?yes,right out of shower?yes,but soapy?nope,it doesn't have that aldehydic,white floral components to make it soapy and I'm thankful that it's not The last thing,there is nothing masculine here,but it can be used by men IMO,I can't think of gender for clean,moistend skin's smell,so if you love almondy cream and lotion's smell and you are a man,feel comfortable to give it a try ❤❤❤❤

When I was in 3rd grade, moms would volunteer in the classroom during math. Mrs. K., one of the volunteer moms (who happened to be Japanese), had the loveliest accent and always smelled sooo good and as soon as I inhaled her heavenly perfume, I was hooked! She was also very kind and helpful. For the rest of the year, whenever Mrs. K. volunteered, I always raised my hand (several times), just so she would come to help me. I didn't need any assistance with math - I just loved Mrs. K.'s accent and her fragrance and wanted to smell it again! One day I mentioned how nice Mrs. K. smelled to my BFF, Rene. Rene replied, "Yes, Mrs. K. always smells like fresh flowers". Turns out, I wasn't the only fan of Mrs. K.'s perfume! Years later, in high school, I asked Mrs. K.'s daughter, Laura, for the name of her mom's perfume because I wanted to buy it. Laura didn't know what fragrance her mom wore. I was bummed, but determined to one day find that mysterious fragrance! Because Mrs. K. was Japanese, I assumed that she most likely wore a Japanese perfume, so eventually I went to the Shiseido counter to smell all of their fragrances hoping to find that scent. None came close. I had resigned myself to the reality that I would never find Mrs. K.s scent - until today! I just bought Twin as a blind purchase - and lo, and behold - it smells EXACTLY like Mrs. K.!!! I am sooo excited! Now, I do realize that Mrs. K. could not possibly have worn Azzaro Twin in 1975 (because it wasn't created until 2007), but according to my olfactory system, Twin is identical to Mrs. K.'s perfume! I love, love, love this fragrance!

If you love soapy, clean, powdery perfumes, this one is a must-have! Ignore the weird bottle and give this amazing scent a chance! I remember wanting the "Duo" fragrances in a similar bottle years ago. When I saw "Twin" in the drugstore, I immediately opened this page and skimmed through the reviews. Seeing the keywords "Nivea cream" and "Dove soap" meant I had to get it. And I got exactly what I was promised. Wearing this after washing my hair feels amazing. It is very powdery but not to the point of being unbearable. I find it musky, soapy and creamy, I can smell a bit of rose. Reminds me of clean laundry, I adore this kind of fragrances. Its sillage is strong for the first two hours and its longevity is above average - about 8 hours on skin and longer on my shirt. It combines well with the original "Dove" deodorant. Looking at the bottle, I would never expect it to be filled with this fragrance. It has such a modern design that reminds me of an "Apple" mouse or a hair removal device while the perfume inside is retro in a timeless way. I can imagine the juice being released in the 90s. Kudos to "Azzaro" for creating this! I will get "Chrome" next which I have also wanted for a long time.

This is a fantastic, unusual and unique perfume - just like the bottle. It's amazing!! Magical. The almond tree flowers are wonderful; the musk is superb, so soft and sweet; the rich and aromatic rose, and the luscious peach, and the gorgeous powdery iris, make this a masterpiece of a dream perfume for me. I adore it, and the bottle. They're both so special and just terrific!!

Sweet relaxing almond. My wife has it. She finds it rather 'OK' but I really love it on her. Kids love it too. Gorgeous when combined with a sweet violet- or iris-deodorant. Sillage good enough. You'll get noticed. Do not overspray. Safe buy if you're into almonds. I have the black and silver ones (for men) but this one is much, much better.

to me it smells somewhat milky, like a suntan body lotion :) think I can smell almonds and peach. very interesting! modern, urban and distinctive. unique - not to mistake with any other one. a bit similar to Allure, but more artificial, in a good meaning.

This was the best perfume i've ever tried and Azzaro decided to discontinued... Thank you, Azzaro! I miss you Twin! I miss your creamy, elegant and clean smell. You were like touch of an angel and breath of a baby to me and then you left me! Forever... :(

Azzaro Twin opens with a beautiful creamy scent. It kind of reminds me of Nivea Soft. So amazing and clean. I wish this scent would last, but the drydown is very similar to Allure or Benetton - Hot. Not bad though.

One of my best blind buys. It doesn't smell powdery, just very delicate, soft, and creamy. I imagine wearing this with something white and freshly laundered...on a spring day. For the price, this was a steal.

This perfume is amazing, you have to wait a bit for the dry down but it’s worth waiting for!

(ENGLISH) As I wrote earlier, so that summer I arrived in Brazil come back to give my impressions of the TWIN. Have not changed much, but certainly it fits more to the hot climate, and people around me commented that it looked like I was using a moisturizer fragrant. The setting was great on my skin, lasting all day, and the projection is great on the environment. I do not buy it again, and it does not look, at least on my skin, not nearly as much as the Chanel spoke. I advise you try before you buy. A man could use the female version without any problem. (PORTUGUESE) Como escrevi anteriormente, assim que o verão chegasse no Brasil eu voltaria pra dar minhas impressões sobre o TWIN. Não mudaram muito, mas sem dúvida ele se adequa mais ao clima quente, e as pessoas à minha volta comentaram que parecia que eu estava usando um hidratante fragrante. A fixação na minha pele foi ótima, durando o dia todo, e a projeção é grande no ambiente . Não o comprarei novamente, e ele não se parece, na minha pele ao menos, nem de longe com o Chanel que tanto falaram. Aconselho experimentar antes da compra. Um homem poderia usar a versão feminina sem problema nenhum.

(ENGLISH) Here in Brazil we are in the coldest time of year. I bought this perfume in the dark and did not think I read it all. The more I remembered those selling antiperspirant deodorant in the supermarket. It has a good fix, smells clean, is not so sweet, and could be fancy .... but it is not, it lacked something that I still could not explain, and I think the best time to use it would be during physical exercise. But I will give him a second chance, when the Brazilian summer arrives, I will test again, then we come back here to update my impressions. (PORTUGUESE) Aqui no Brasil estamos na época mais fria do ano. Comprei este perfume no escuro, e não achei isso tudo que li. A mim lembrou mais aqueles desodorantes antitranspirantes que vendem no supermercado. Tem uma boa fixação, cheira limpeza, não é tão doce, e poderia ser chique....mas ele não é, faltou-lhe alguma coisa que eu ainda não soube explicar; e penso que a melhor ocasião para usá-lo seria durante os exercícios físicos. Mas vou dar um segunda chance a ele; quando o verão brasileiro chegar, testarei novamente, aí então voltarei aqui para atualizar minhas impressões.

Twin opens with a lot of sweet, but prickly black currant. It's not here on the note pyramid, but it's on the box as "black currant sorbet". Despite the almond, iris and musk Twin is more creamy than powdery. It's very much one of those "your skin but better scents". Twin does not grab you, it wraps you in a soft cloud. Every note listed on the pyramid is present (except the missing black currant) and works well together. Twin is an excellent casual or work fragrance. It has very light sillage and some people might not think you were wearing a perfume (as they think of perfume) at all. Twin is very long lasting. I applied this at maybe 3 pm and I can still smell it on my arm at 3 am. This is one of those fragrances you put on, forget about and hours later you're like "what smells awesome? OMG IT'S ME."

Clean summer skin scent. You wake up one summer morning feeling it’s too hot so you brave a cold shower. The first sharp hit of water makes you inhale deeply and you have an icy tingle in your nose. You then lather generously with white Dove soap and moisturize with original Nivea lotion and wear a freshly laundered and ironed white linen shirt. That morning routine if bottled is Azzaro Twin. The initial spray is sharp and a bit synthetic but doesn’t last long. You are then left with a creamy, clean white musk with very soft florals. I cannot detect almonds or peach, and would have guessed heliotrope with a subdued sambac rather than iris, but the white musk is totally there. A great clean skin scent perfect for summer days wherever you’re not supposed to have “perfume”!

A sharp note ruins it for me. The bottle is hard to hold, in addition to looking a whole lot like a s3x toy. I'll give it more time to grow on me; I love the other Annick Menardo scents I own. I've noticed that it IS possible to have my perception of a fragrance change dramatically. Arden Splendor, Mugler Aura, and Diamonds & Emeralds are some examples of perfumes that, in time, became gorgeous to me after borderline dislike. So I'm not ready to rate Twin just yet! Update: this has grown on me as I recently dove into powdery iris scents. Still a sharp musk note but I find it more interesting and likable now. I can perceive powder and almond notes, unlike before.

If there was ever a bright, sprite, white lotion style perfume, this is it. I found it difficult to imagine a creamy perfume with some bubbly sparkle. Azzaro Twin does this beautifully. I imagine that the peach contributes to this brightness but, however they managed it, Twin is a happy, bright and modern perfume. It is able to harness both warm and cold aspects. The brightness subsides in the dry down leaving it mostly warm and creamy but that sparkle lasts long enough for this to still be a bright and uplifting perfume. Currently wearing in 50F but I think this will still be good on summer nights.

This was a blind buy for me. I don't love this one but I don't hate it either. It has a slightly androgynous undertone but not in a generic aquatic way. It is very much like a fine soap as others have mentioned. I am reminded of Perlier Almond Milk hand soap.... I don't particularly like the smell of almond flower as it turns out. That said, it is a very clean smell, creamy yes but not in a sweet way (which I was kinda hoping for). If you like L'Occitane Almond hand cream or the Perlier one, you'll love this. For me, it is going to make itself useful as a bath fragrance.

Personally I quite like Azzaro Twin. Sure, it is not groundbreaking nor award-winning but as far as fruity florals goes this is a very affectionate one. The peaches are soft & delicious. The almond is milky-sweet & powdery but blends well with the florals. It sits on my skin like a sweet cloud. I don't smell any artifice here. It is just good clean fun. I would wear it to work. The bottle is really awesome too. I think it looks kind of naughty, almost like it could be battery operated. It is what made me try it in the first place :)

The satchet my sample came in states "Ludic, iridescent, sensual. Blackcurrant sorbet, white peach, almond flower, creamy musks." This is the soapiest of soapy soaps. It is an opaque white scent, much like the packaging it comes in. Very pleasant, I am really enjoying sniffing this one, but I already have a fullsize of the ultimate luxe almond soap that is Elie Saab L'Eau Couture so I won't get a bottle. If you like this, do try that one as well.
