I Am Not a Flower

Stunning fragrance for those who love minimalistic scents. It's very smooth and elegant blend with sandalwood and softest (cleanest) oud I've ever met. It's a bit sweet and has a delightful amber accord in it. Plenty will think this think it is too little of a scent, bashing it for the huge price or being little projector but I am 100% sure it's made that way. You notice it when standing close to a person and he will compliment you on what you are wearing. If you work in environment where you have to be running lots of business meeting and fragrance is part of your first impression, go for this. It's sophisticated, extremely well blended, very cozy and palatial feeling. It has a charming vibe to it when you just want to hug a person wearing it. Yuu won't find screechy Iso E super, ambroxan and other chemlab junk in this one. And yes, it lasts on the skin forever.

Ok, this does not smell like Nivea cream. I love the smell of Nivea, and this ain't it. There is a ton of notes not listed here. This opens with a bitter orange/ginger punch, that quickly mellows out to a nice ambery CLEAN oud, and hint of tea. Not listed, and a huge part of the composition, is some kind of cold musk, almost icy. This is not a warm perfume. There is a faint aroma of spoiled/fermented fruit. I can smell Ambroxan. Most importantly, the bright top notes last only an hour. It dries down to what is basically Arquiste Peau. I have both, and they are, on drydown, 90% identical. I Am Not A Flower just has that fruity oudy touch, but it's light and clean. 9/10, but not worth the price. Buy Arquiste Peau instead, and if you want, layer it with a light oud.

One of the most beautiful perfumes featuring white oud, amber, and ginger. Gormandi is a sweet, soft, and woody fragrance. It’s not a new or groundbreaking composition, but it is pleasantly sweet without being boring. I truly loved the scent, as well as the design of the bottle. It’s an exclusive perfume from the private collection 🦋🤍 The performance is moderate, which is a bit disappointing—I wish it were stronger, more concentrated, and firmer. However, overall, it is an elegant fragrance with a sweet and soft character.

🇫🇷 ❤️My favorite. It stays on your skin during 48 hours minimum. It’s unique fragrance , very sexy , smooth and beautiful . Better to wear this one during Fall season 🍁IMO. It’s not cheap but absolutely worthy !🤙 Alienor Massenet you are a magical perfumer !

Warm sophisticated ambery scent that exudes refinement although it is not hugely novel. The only few notes I can detect besides amber are ginger, sandalwood and gaharu buaya (also known as white oud). The unisex scent has moderate projection and good longevity. It is presented beautifully, but again, its nothing that has not been done many times before. It does exude a sophisticated upper tier air though throughout its wear. Enjoy!

Nivea, but make it expensive :(

I can't believe I paid full price for this. It's not worth half the price. My guess to why this is not added in their sample kit is to lure the ignorant ( like myself) into buying this overpriced ( $500) bottle of 'any oud' that can be purchased anywhere an oud fragrance of the lowest possible price point is sold. I smell no ginger, amber or sandalwood. Purchased from Harrods. I'm suspect of any and all positive reviews of this one. UPDATE: 6.15.2023 This is a beautiful fragrance! I love the ginger, stone fruity note that's not mentioned. I sprayed it and rolled my eyes. Working in front of a screen all day I randomly reach for scents...I kept reaching for "I Am Not a Flower [But I May Be A Fruit]. I've sprayed it (a short, week spray at a time on my wrist). I wore it out one day in the past week and it was simply delightful. It lasted about 12 -15 hours. Simply Lovely. I'm so happy I pulled the trigger on this blind buy.

No projection, no longevity! I dont like this! The price at Madison Bucharest- 550 euro ! I dont need this fragrance
