Supernova

Smells great. More feminine leaning but unique, probably best for women. I’ll coin it the Naxos for women

It starts like orange-infused dark chocolate, and orange blossom follows almost immediately. That initial sweet burst fades quickly, giving way to a woodier feel, an airy vanilla, and a refined patchouli silhouette. It’s a pleasant, agreeable composition; unlikely to offend anyone. I love orange blossom, and here it’s presented in its most delicate, graceful form; the sweetness never smothers it. This is not one of those recent “sugared orange blossom” crowd-pleasers. In the drydown, I pick up a light leather-like nuance, which adds a nice finishing touch. I wouldn’t call it wow, super unique but it’s balanced and it does have real depth. Tag(s): orange blossom, woody, airy vanilla, refined patchouli, subtle leather nuance, balanced, approachable

Going through my sample set of Nicheend. Supernova is a neroli bomb, purely and simply. It's very clean, very pleasant. I admit neroli is not my personal cup of tea but this DNA won't offend anyone. It's very similar to Memo's Sintra if you swapped red fruit for apple and removed the overly sweet milky aspect. There is a creaminess but not as cloying as in Sintra with its marshmallow vibe. Also very similar to TF's Neroli Portofino but less blasting floral, I find Supernova much smoother. This is very Spring vibe, clean and sparkly. Lasts a good 6 hours too, which I find rare for neroli-based perfumes, I usually go anosmic to them quickly. I will however say the price point for this type of DNA is a bit much to ask.

Pretty a very pretty fragrance. Neroli and orange blossom with a hint of vanilla. Nothing special however is very pleasant, but the price is bunkers lol.
