Masaki Shiro

Slightly creamy in the most sublime way, pure, gentle, beautiful; for me, a better version of Creed's Love in White but this doesn't have the ambergris, that is a little too much for me in Love in White; my sense of snell is very acute & a smidgen of Ambergris in the base of something like Love In White can bother me - espc bc it smells quite "oily." I love this one - but the staying power is absolutely dreadful, though I still love it. At one point it was plentiful - but it was still £ Forty something Pounds here, which for that staying power was ridiculous, but eventually I got several backups though for almost body spray staying power it's a bit cheeky. Now you can only find it in the UK on Makeup UK & Parfum Dreans - don't do it ppl! (Makeup UK will let you order a Perfume & then send you a different one; they immediately sent me a delivery note for products from this particular brand - but for a "berry" Perfume they make, I forget the name; & I had to pester them forever & get VERY unnecessary threatening them with allsorts if thry sejt me the wrong thing, to get a Refund (& that was when they had PayPal facility!) - these 2 jokers HAVE none og thid Perfume but they are Trying to Offload the unpopular perfumes of this brand, so save yourself the effort. I think in the U.S, though -, the Philippines & all over Asia you could buy this for $31 Dollars & it was on many "Affordable Perfume Videos on YT, wish I'd found it sooner! If anybody has an unopened or newish, barely sprayed bottle they don't want, let me know bc I have many for swaps & will happily swap, I'm a bit of a massive collector of Fragrances, I'm always looking for subtle & beautful perfumes & to me this is gorgeous (Except only for short periods, if I hv a busy day I don't wear this - it needs to be on skin to get that beautiful slightly creamy scent so spraying on clothes won't work in this case. If thr lasting power was good I'd give it 9 out of 10 bc the Japanese & East Asian perfumes profile & aesthetic is one of my favourites

This reminds of Creed Love In White, but I prefer this. It's nothing like Moschino Toujours Glamor - that is talcum powder while this is a real "lotion" perfume. Beautiful, but poor lasting power. Doesn't smell like AS Shi either; in fact, when it was out of stock all over the UK, I bought various bottles to replace it & nothing was like it. Lasting power is absolutely atrocious though - & you cannot spray this on clothes, it doesn't smell the same on fabric. Love this one, it's such a clean, smell, like beautiful white lotion; & almost a fabric softener smell; & I love clean, myself. This is Japanese to the core (unlike Shiseido perfumes which never are, for some reason) - but this is a huge hit in Japan, & in the rest of East Asia; & I love the aesthetics of both S Korea & Japan (different, ofc) - & that particular genre of perfumes, v much. (I should say; Jennifer Lopez Still is made from.some screechy aroma chemicals, that give me a headache, I hv a huge bottles & was shocked; cannot wear it, sorry - maybe it's fine in the sillage for some ppl, & am not criticising anybody who wears it but I cannot this isn't like that - & I will swap Still with anybody who likes some of my swaps - there's a J Lopez "Still body lotion" included if anybody would like! This, though is lovely)

If you love Creed's Love In White but not willing to pay the price, try this! Despite the notes which read quite different, the smell itself is almost identical. For me the biggest difference is the spruce in Shiro's base which definitely gives an undertone of pine. As if you would have a walk in a pine forest, wearing Love In White. A very lovely, somewhat powdery white floral bouquet with a soft spruce undertone. I do like this, can enjoy it, but since I fell in love with Love In White before tried Shiro, this cannot grow into a real love. The two scents are so similar, but still, Shiro lacks something that makes LIW elegant and classy and which I miss so much, simply, I cannot really value Shiro on its own, but keep whishing it would be LIW... Otherwise, I would highly recommend this frag to anyone who loves clean, balanced, soapy scents.

This one is soooo good. Unique. Cold, yes...But i think dark blue would describe it much better than this white does... Definitely unisex. I can imagine it on both sex no difference. There's something hot and sexy in it...Deep and mysterious. It's not for "barbie girly girl"...It's for woman. It's def my favorite fragrance lately. It suits cold and hot temperatures...Day or night. Even though it's sillage isn't that great, so if you prefer your frag goes in everyone's face u might wanna use something else for club nights... For me this is very "pro" designed fragnance. I just LOVE IT!! p.s. also, i got a few compliments wearing it, mainly from man ;-)

This perfume is a hidden gem! At the first spritz I didn't quite know how I felt about it, but my god, as the hours went on it just kept getting better and better. So intimate and delicate yet fresh and mysterious. I can't quite put my finger on it, it's not floral yet it is, its not really sweet but there's a cozy sweetness/warmth that comes after a few hours. I want to say melon and cucumber, but also not haha. I absolutely love it. It's a fresh, cozy and feminine scent, very relaxing and not cloying in any way. It lasts really good on clothes ;)
