Nun

It seems to me that tuberose is missing from the list of notes that constitute the floral heart of this perfume, because Nun is very similar to Gucci Bloom EDP. Obviously, many white floral notes are quite similar, and it is entirely possible that the mixture of white lotus, jasmine and ylang-ylang creates this tuberose-like effect. Nevertheless, now that I have smelled Bloom in Nun, I can’t un-smell it! Another obvious inspiration is D&G Light Blue, because the opening of Nun is almost identical to Light Blue, before it morphs into Bloom. So, my main (and only significant) objection to Nun is that it’s not very original. Other than that, it’s a very enjoyable sweet floral - super-feminine and perfect as a wedding fragrance (which contradicts its name!) The opening fruity notes quickly evaporate and make room for floral sweetness, whereas the base is pleasantly woody - but not woody enough to steer this scent into a more masculine direction. Overall, Nun is enjoyable from start to finish and unlikely to offend anyone, because white florals are tamed and ‘purified’. Nun’s longevity and projection are also quite similar to Bloom and Light Blue - you’ll get about 4-5 hours on the skin, with a strong opening, but weak development.

this is exactly what I think a modern day nun would smell like lol. It’s fresh, clean, slightly sweet, airy, and floral. This opens with sweet pear with fresh citrus and a flowery neroli, airy and light. The florals in the heart of this blend in a sweetly fresh and aquatic blend, with a banana like ylang ylang. This is very floral but it’s not overwhelmingly so, like a fresh spring day, it’s inviting, comforting, and freshly light. The dry down offers some warmth with warm woods and enveloping musk. The muskiness feels like a cloud, a hug from a pretty girl, a breeze on a warm day. This is scent is beautifully simple but in a way that works really well.

A very rare type of fruity-floral perfume - it is thick and sweet-sweet, but moist an dewy. And this saves it from being cloying. Tender but juicy. This is not a bouquet, but a warm summer garden. Such an ideal summer, when it's very warm, but not stuffy, not too hot and not too dry, and you sit in the shade on a bench by the pond. The flowers are somewhat abstract, sweetish creamy. From the bottle it seems more powdery floral-fruity-sweet, on the skin - it becomes more dewy. I would not change a single small detail here, everything is so harmonious. Makes you smile. What at first seemed like a failed blind buy turned into one of my favorite perfumes.

I’ve been wearing this for a few weeks now and absolutely love it!! It’s opens with a very light citrus and pear (which makes it’s a bit watery but not in a sharp way). Then it slowly settles into a nice creamy floral, one that personally I’ve not smelled in many perfumes before. I definitely smell the lotus and yang ylang and it’s actually reminds me of the target jasmine+ylang ylang candle. My favorite thing about this is the dry down of this on my skin! I love the musky floral and it works well on my skin. It’s definitely something I’ll be wearing more often!!

I just blind bought this fragrance based on notes and comments. I am so happy I did! This is a wonderful fragrance with both freshness and sweetness, perfectly balanced! It’s uplifting, bright and feminine. On my skin the floral aspect is what I get the most. The florals are dewy and sweet. This is a winner in my collection.
