Narissa Peach

FIRST: I'm confused, I bought it instead of Narissa Poudree mostly bc there was a rumour about this fragrance being a new name for the former butvthe notes are pretty different. Poudree lists white flowers and Rose as top notes and Musk as it's Heart while NPeach has pink pepper and bergamota as top and cardamom AND nutmeg with blue flowers as its center...I'll try to find some NPoudree bottle. About Narissa Peach: I'm loving her, powdery and strong start (some alcohol too) after 15 minutos it starts to fall into place, the flowers show themselves and the sweetnes appear but it's an earthy, spicy sweetnes. Somehow similar to Wanderlust by Michael Kors but powdery and edgier.

Great scent, I fell in love at the store. Its basically sweet, powdery floral. The flowers hit strong at first and then the sweet base really stands out. Its nothing wow, very safe scent, good for office altho it might become a bit overpowering if you are an oversprayer like me. I use this one mostly in the cold seasons.

I’m just revisiting this after having it for a year or two. I haven’t reached for it for any other reason than that I have a ton of perfumes and I’m trying to get to know them all. I tend to neglect my middle easterns. Mainly because there are sooo many in my collection and also, I find sitting a while really improves them! Well, this is now gorgeous!! I would almost rank this as love! It’s really quite beautiful and I find it would be great for day or night, work or an evening out! I’m not even sure they still sell it, but if they do, grab it!! It’s so affordable and lasts forever. The peach does not smell synthetic at all, at least not after sitting so long! There is zero evidence of that strong alcohol or motor oil smell. It’s a great purchase! I personally would wear this in the spring but could be fabulous in any season! I’d say it’s a little soapy or fabric softener reminiscent but I love that aesthetic! It’s a bit similar to the amber one, yet different enough. If you enjoy that, I think you’ll enjoy this! I have not smelled the NR so I can’t speak to closeness but this is great! I have to stress, give these middle eastern fragrances time! Try to revisit them periodically. I have so many that really didn’t impress me when they came in or even several months later. However, they continue to change and get better!

This one was a hard no for me. I went in expecting juicy peach with a soft vanilla base, something creamy and slightly flirtatious. What I got instead was a sharp, powder-heavy scent that hit fast and refused to calm down. Within minutes, it triggered a headache. There was no fruitiness, no warmth, no sweetness to round it out. The profile leaned dry and synthetic on my skin. It genuinely reminded me of detergent mixed with old newspaper, blended in a food processor. It felt loud but not in a confident way. Just intrusive. I passed it on to a friend who actually enjoys it. Surprisingly, it settles better on her. Still unusual to my nose, but clearly more compatible with her chemistry. For me, this was supposed to be peach. It turned out to be powder and regret.

Haven't smelled the original..Narciso Poudree...but like most of these dupes, this one is lacking. It's not exceptional, feels artificial in general, just OK to wear, and not bold enough to be anything other than a skin scent. Notice also that there's no peach listed in the above notes either. I'll probably keep this for a while, but would never buy it again. And if Narciso Poudree really smelled like this, I wouldn't buy that either.

Notes are totally wrong! These notes are from Armani Eau de Nuit! Real notes are: Bulgarian Rose, Jasmine, Orange blossom Musk Cedarwood, Coumarin, Patchouli and Vetiver. It's just Narissa Poudree under the different name.

Myeh. It would at least be an inoffensive office scent, but it's too lactonic. I thought this was the super-powdery one; my mistake

A beautiful powdery fragrance. Alhambra does some great dupes.
