Deruni

I wanted to like it because it smells good but there is a note and I chose this out of all the perfumes I have tried so far. It may be that perfumes don't blend well with my skin and that is very unfortunate. I smell the chocolate and vanilla notes and it's almost wonderful but this artificial scent ruins it. It has the potential to be great, it just didn't work for me. This chocolate note is very realistic. It's very strong compared to the other notes. I can detect some oud and burnt wood, but what you get here is mostly a rich dark chocolate note. When the vanilla comes out, the drydown gives you a sweet, less rich chocolate scent. Even the pepper stands out a little bit more. The oud note doesn't really stand out for me, maybe it's masked by the other notes, or maybe that's what gives the chocolate its richness. This is definitely the ultimate chocolate lover's gourmand scent and I think it's a crowd pleaser. The performance of this perfume is crazy. Overuse can get you into trouble!
