Erotika Minimale

This perfume is an enigma! It lists no animatic notes but there is definitely a very beautiful pissy nuance about it. It’s there right at the beginning, animalic sexy, very carnal and then the middle note flowers come in. Maybe it’s the coriander acting like civet. I hope I’m not the only one getting that! This is so sexy! Very “erotic” and dark, gothic vibes for sure. It lasts forever on skin 8-10+ hours. Projection is decent, I know others can smell me since I got compliments the first time wearing it.

Parfümden anlamayan tayfanın verdiği puanlara bakmayın. Çok başarılı bir parfüm. Bir parfum nasil erotik kokabilir diyebilirsiniz. Ancak koklayıp zaman tanırsanız nasil başarılı bir iş çıktığını anlarsınız. Yeterince güçlü bir parfüm. Daha güçlü olsa harika olurdu ama muhtemelen böyle guzel kokmazdi. Vanilya, tütün ve kaotik karışımları beğenen tayfa bu parfümu anlamayacaktır. Sorun yok anlamamalari Daha iyi.

I don't know if it's sexy or not but it's one of my top 5 fav perfumes! Love it!

As a person who is bit against old rose perfumes known from age our grandmas, the first application was strong shock for me. I would tell directly after putting on skin that it is "erotika minimale" in the true sense of the word, unless you find grandmas overly erotically attractive (no offense) - it hits you directly to face with bulgarian rose explosion that is nowhere near something sexy, very retro, sticky amber, no cinnamon no coriander and then directly to "pissy" vanilla as this is what heavy rose makes in combination to ambery sweet vanilla. But after 15 minutes of suffering the rose starts to withdraw and everything changes to fizzy mandarin kola nut caffeine bewerage, modern intriguing, cant stop snifing my hand. Lets see where it leads us.... ...and after 3 hours the more it ages the more I like it, now we have powdery dusky animalic dandy musk in lead....hmmm I see why Erotika now. Thats for the first time I can observe that massive twist and perfume maturation from baisc dislike to niche popularity on my person! You have to give it a time to evolve...and end in about 5 hours like very nice unsweet vanilla - not that original but not bad.

If you mixed Frederic Malle's Lipstick Rose (powdery iris and rose) and Penhaligon's Cairo (spicy, ambery rose), you would get something close to Erotika Minimale. It is not minimal at all. This perfume is very potent, although doesn't produce a high sillage, it feels strong and powerful on skin. An aromatic, powdery, spicy, herbal perfume. Deep and mystical. A different take on rose if one is tired of rose-oud combinations. Another spicy and aromatic rose is Epic, but Epic, in comparison, is less powdery, less aromatic and there is some sort of underlying juicy sweetness.

Spicy opening with a bit of metallic (yet powdery) accords. It has a prominent ambery and musky base that dominates all other notes in the fragrance. The mixture of floral notes is quite soft here, however, the spicy geranium note puts me off a bit. Follow me on IG: scent.guide

I really don't get the erotical theme in here.What reminds me of this is Sadonaso and angel's dust. on one side I get a very strong patchouly on the other side I get a gentle and refined sweet iris. I honestly get a totally different vibe from the marketing. On one side I get this very gentle conforting scent that reminds me of a well prortrayed woman on his 30s, in career with a life ahead of her, on the other side I get a carnal herbal and earth feeling almost reminding me of a dusty room that hasn't been used for years, the ones you have in your grandma's houses, sad malinconic and empty. This is a fragrance of contrasts, that blends together two different realities. One of calmness, elegance and class and an other one made of emptyness, dust and malincony. Personally I don't get any erotic vibes, I get a story that Is totally different from the one portrayed by the artist who made this, maybe I misinterpreted ? What's important is that It made me travel and wonder who the woman portrayed in the back really Is. Young beautiful woman on carrier with beautiful children and lots of money is what sells more, Although sadly there's nobody to tell the stories about the elderly women. For each new formed family there is a mother that farewells his children, for every new house that is made there is an empty room in that mothers house still waiting for guests to arrive, still waiting for somebody to fill it.

I don't like this. I'd say it's very, very herbal. I get cured spicy olives, but underneath I can smell there is something there that would probably be nicer... if the olives weren't so overpowering.

Oh wow it is very hard to surprise me, but this perfume took me by surprise for sure. I fell in love with the first spray! First of all, I think it feels very very luxurious, niche, and still very unique as not a lot of people wear these kinds of scents. Personally, the scent sums up and depicts the name of the perfume perfectly, it does feel erotic and body-like, and it truly does mix with your own skin scent, but the main point to get this effect you have to spray this perfume on the skin! It does smell totally different on paper and on clothing and may even seem a bit harsh zesty and too aromatic, while on skin it opens up beautifully the iris and musk notes are truly dominant then, and the aromatic notes compliment perfume exceptionally well. As I find powdery iris notes very intimate, sensual, and kind of erotic, this perfume truly leaves that impression. So I truly advise you not to be mistaken and try this on your skin! I mentioned that I find this perfume sensual but I do not think this feels light and innocent as it does have a very intriguing aspect - the aromatic notes create this mystical alluring effect that feels a bit dark and fatal. It is such an incredible perfume that has a perfect duality and is not linear. And I just love how the scent depends on your own skin chemistry and body heat, I truly feel it changes on everyone and opens up uniquely. Amazing creation!!! I think this might be my favorite from the brand for sure! Longevity is super nice - I could smell the perfume even after taking a shower and the sillage is perfect you can sense the perfume around you when you move and it creates a very very nice scent bubble. Upon spraying the perfume and in the later dry down I could feel a light similarity to Putain des Palaces, but just because of that somehow powdery musky iris more, so don't get me wrong they are not similar but have some aspect that may lead you thinking about that perfume. Amazing! 10/10

Initial top notes are indeed 'erotic' in a sophisticated, earthy way, with the iris and cinnamon notes making a first impression that infers night time interactions with one's belle. As the dry down commences, a softer, more soapy accord comes through with hints of gentle rose (not the sickly overpowering kind, mercifully). I can understand the 'old grandma' impressions that other posters have commented on with this fragrance. However, this is pleasant and inclines one to repeatedly go back in for another sniff...make of it what you will.

Straight up BO. Very animalic, but the dry-down, for me, kinda smells like litter.
