Banan

I had been eyeing this for a few weeks after seeing a video in another language raving about it then I saw itcannotwaysbenight’s review and decided to pull the trigger on a bottle. I received it a couple days ago and I would say she described it perfectly in her review. I’ll be honest and say that going off the notes pyramid I wouldn’t have given this scent a thought if not for her review or seeing that video raving about it as I don’t care for most plum scents and dislike apple as a note but it’s just another reminder that once blended it can smell totally different than what you expect and in this case it was unexpected in a good way. It is a stunning nectary floral fragrance. Sweet but not cloying. Fruity floral but in a refined way. The fruits are all blended in well that I don’t pick up one necessarily more than the other but I do pick up on the black currant. All that on a sandalwood and vanilla base really makes this scent feel luxe. It does have a vintage touch to it but I don’t feel that it makes it dated either, just gives it a nice homage if you will, to the past while still remaining timeless imo. I also could see this being worn by a beautiful young woman from a long ago era. I picture her to be the sultry yet elegant, vixen type. It’s effortlessly polished and sexy imo. Signature scent worthy for sure! It’s really a gorgeous scent and I’m looking forward to wearing it more. It shines so beautifully in the warm spring air and I did get a few compliments on it already. It also has a lovely freshness about it that feels clean without reading laundry soap or aldehydic. Simply stunning and I’m glad I was able to find a bottle. Performance is great. I can smell it on my skin all day and for days on clothes. Projection is good as well, doesn’t blast you in the face but wafts around you beautifully, others will definitely notice.

Banan is the one. She has me ignoring my entire collection. This opens as a sweet, fruity floral that feels effortlessly polished, before settling into a stunning necatary floral with a vanilla sandalwood base that gives it warmth and depth. There’s a subtle vintage aura running through it which is not “old” or dated, but the kind of timeless femininity you might imagine on the vanity of a twenty-something man-eater 50+ years ago. Elegant, romantic, and quietly captivating. You feel the quality of the perfume immediately. At $300 for 50 ml, it sounds steep, but with one spray you understand exactly why. There’s a slick, oily richness to it that projects all day on skin and lingers on clothes for dayssss. Endless compliments. Part of me wants to gatekeep this one, but it’s simply too beautiful not to share. When I’m long gone, this is the scent memory I’d want my loved ones to hold onto.

Banan is absolutely AMAZINNGGG 😍💓 & ALL of the detailed reviews praising this fragrance is well DESERVED!!️ I have the Jouri Discovery set (it includes 10 fragrances) and THIS ONE has stood out the MOST...I am in LOVE with it! Easily a fragrance I want to wear daily...such an exquisite blend of notes that LASTS💯

My friend sent me this along with a few other scents from Dubai. Hind al Oud Ahojas being my fave. Luckily I can buy it here in the US. I don't know if this can be purchased in the US yet so that heavily effects my decision on a fb. I'm not into white florals but she thought it was a Banana scent when she bought it. I lmao because girl read the room. Love her though. On to the scent itself. I like this scent. Its almost a cherry vanilla with the plum. The white florals are heady and narcotic. Say the opening of Almafolia but darker and deeper plus fruit. It almost has a coca*ne feel to it. Like uncut, no gasolina. The white florals are competing with the fruit. An interpretation of a woman who is old but still youthful in her own mind. Maybe a woman with dementia who only remembers the younger days yet she is 60 or 70. Don't take my comment the wrong way either. Its actually a beautiful interpretation to me. Dementia has a bad reputation and I know first had how bad it can be. In a way its also beautiful. All the pain of aging physical and mentally. Any trauma endured in between those years all erased and only the good memories remain stuck in a loop of the golden days. The scent is beautiful, when it comes to the US I will look into it once more. Vats/duties are being refunded so maybe I will buy it before it arrives here. Actually I'll just buy the body spray version since its like $90.

@digi3573 The scented cottage its a fragrance store in GA and its on their website too
