Daimiris

It takes me almost one year to decide whether I love Daimiris or I hate it. This creation for sure is not easy to wear, however it is not devil in any way (nothing killing by overpowering). Now I’m sure this is my fragrance which I’ll wear every night this fall. First impression I had when sprayed Daimiris on my forearm was sweet strongly animal leather. Than rum accord with ambergris developed together which are surrounded by some sweet notes. Nevertheless none of listed are the stars in Daimiris. The best recognizable and extremely well balanced is iris. From the beginning to the end buttery iris is playing first role. However iris is nothing I’m in love with, here this flower/root is so wonderful that I’m almost changing my mind ... for sure I’m going to test more iris based fragrances. In my opinion Daimiris has to faces – first this is hippie live, surrounded by warm sweet smell when everything around can make you smile and happy – the smell of real freedom; the second somewhat opposite to the first one, the smell of serious noble and very rich people wasting their time and money to show everyone else that they are rich and nothing else – wearing expensive fur coats, smoking cigars and drinking most expensive drinks, spending their lazy time in kitschy rooms with leather furniture. I’m choosing first interpretation of Daimiris to be happy and feel cozy. And what is your interpretation of this wonderful and deep fragrance?

I have been wearing it a lot this winter, and it's such a treasure! I have gotten used to it somehow and now it does not seem that strong to me as I thought it to be when I first smelled it. It's rather a transparent oriental, not a very dense one. I'm not afraid to overspray it although it's spicy and boozy. And I'm not sure that it's a bad thing. Sometimes perfumes can be too much, and this isn't. Another new feature of DAIMIRIS that I noticed is "Wow! Chocolate!", after the initial rum blast it really smells like milk chocolate, spiced up by saffron. I don't feel the iris as a separate note, it only gives the texture to the perfume: velvety, powdery, milky chocolate. It also reminds me a little of DAIM BLOND, but DAIMIRIS isn't fruity at all. If you, like me, love DB but would prefer it a bit less plummy-peachy, and aren't afraid of saffron, give this a try. The sillage is very good.

I'm afraid this perfume is as addictive as booze is for some people: I have a sample and I just can't get enough of it, the minute I put it on my wrist I was ready to jump into some car or bus or whatever and rush to the perfume shop where it sells for a more than reasonable price (Laboratorio Olfattivo is the definition of a great quality/price ratio). It is that beautiful. It smells like the most expensive cognac, softly spicy saffron, amber and vanilla with powdery iris and, again, the most expensive suede. The drydown is pure chocolate. Amazing, breathtaking! Certainly unisex. It smells like luxury. I'm going to have it and will douse myself in autumn and winter. It is also very strong and longlasting... What a perfume!

raffinatissimo e molto originale sulle prime note, intossicanti e assai alcoliche, di rum, cuoio, iris e un tocco di zafferano. questa prima fase olfattiva perdura moderatamente per poi virare su un fondo confortevole e già sniffato, cionondimeno gradevole, di ambra e violetta, sostenuto da sentori di terra (radici di iris?), che ricorda Ambra di Etro. nel contempo l'impressione di zafferano si fa più decisa. perfetto per l'inverno, elegante, resinoso, completamente unisex. eccellente.

Gorgeous, smooth, perfection It reminds me if they made a version of Dior Homme intense especially for women Lovely ♥️ Edit a few years later: I've reassessed this one and it's actually not as sweet as Dior Homme and is drier dustier, a gorgeous fragrance but I thought I better mention it's not actually girly, it's quite mature in nature. Very niche.
