Frescor de Cumaru

This is my favorite tonka interpretation I've ever smelled in a fragrance. It's slightly sweet, but very powdery, and even with an extremely subtle aromatic nuance to it. It's so light, so airy, so conforting. The fragrance opens with the tonka and the facets I mentioned from the get-go, but it also has a citrus sparkle, and a floral softness, that blends perfectly with the tonka. It is deliberately light, the Ekos line is supposed to be built this way, they're extremely light and easy-going fragrances for everyday wear. Because of that, it's so versatile, sure, you won't be using this to "stand out" in a crowd or anything like that, but for pretty much anything else, it's just glorious, you can wear it to go get groceries, to smell good and relax after a shower, etc. When you first spray it, it's noticeable from like 3 feet away, but it quickly gets really close to the skin, but that's ok, I feel like this is one of those fragrances you use for yourself, and it's so good the way it turns into this warm, conforting skin scent after a while. This is absolutely amazing, the construction is beautiful, the ingredients extremely high quality for the price (I don't know how much this will cost someone in say the US, but here in Brazil, it costs about what would be 26 dollars full price, or as low as 15 dollars on sale. I love it, and highly recommend it. For what it's supposed to be? 10/10.

Compre este por curiosidad, para saber a que olía el haba tonka, ya que Guerlain la usa en sus perfumes. Mientras que la vainilla es dulce y medicinal, el haba tonka, aquí se caracteriza por ser un vainilla ligeramente polvorosa y fresca. . Es dulce pero fresca. Es muy similar a cherry blossom de natura solo que sin el ambar. La nota cítrica la siento al final pero el olor a haba tonka la domina, no la deja resaltar. Cuando lo uso siento solo un ligero olor a vainilla, despues siento la sensacion de estar usando el cherry blossom. Algo similar seria el Razzi Mania de Jafra.
