My Destiny

What can I say. I love this Parfume. Honestly, I bought it because Oriflame offered some discount for it and I read the description that the bottle would never be the same with the others. And when it came, I thought I found one my fav parfume again beside Victoria's secret wish.

Floral? Not so much. Citrus? Not at all. Fruity? No, it's tamed. Vanilla? Also tamed. Aquatic and fresh? No, not at all. The blend consists of flowers dipped in peachy vanilla solution. It's flowers indeed but not cold, not the florist's refrigerator flowers; they are like someone poured vanilla potion on them. Aromatic and non gourmand. The notes develop randomly on the skin. The base could be more potent; patchouli is there, detectable, but not enough potent. Also there should be some woody notes in the base as well. Not girly, it's actually more mature. Does last on skin for 4 hours, with moderate sillage and projection. A crowd pleaser. Will get you nice comments. A safe option. P.S.: layer with Giordani Gold Original Oriflame for more exquisite results

It is a nice, wearable "fruitchuli". Starts with blueberries and apricot, the flowers join in to make it softer, and there is a warm, greenish patchouli base to be observed all along. The bottle is very pretty. I think it did not get the popularity Oriflame hoped for because it is a safe, office compatible fragrance, nothing unique or unusual here, it is not what I was thinking of after hearing the My Destiny name and that each bottle will be unique.

My Destiny is refreshingly different from the other patchouli based fragrances I have tested lately. This is green and fresh. I don't care for strong lotus notes, but here I don't even detect it. The bottle is unique and pretty. This is one of those fragrances that can make you feel like million dollars when you otherwise would not feel that way. This goes to my want-list. Patchouli lovers: this is worth testing!

So pretty! It’s airy and sweet, fruity and floral, green and white! It feels nostalgic, much like most Oriflame and Avon perfumes released before 2018, which I remember from the women around me growing up, as both brands were a big thing in my country for a long time. It just makes me happy to smell, it’s comforting.
