AZM

I just received my bottle today and it was coming from a hot Florida mail truck so I do expect this to change, but I'm really loving it rn and wanted to get this down while these thoughts are fresh. Black opium was my signature scent for YEARS. Somehow, some way, the opening of this strongly resembles it. I believe its the white florals, which are quite loud as of now. I dont smell coffee like in black opium, but its like the rum, Vanilla, and musk are coming together and blending into a coffee-like scent. However iys not coffee! They also have pear in common, which is the only fruit that's peeking through right now. I have a feeling that this will change quite a lot after resting, but I'm really loving it right now. Yeah, I'm kinda disappointed no peach and the pear not being as present as I thought it would be, but this smells gorgeous as is. After it lays on the skin for a while, the pear does peek out a little bit more but I wouldn't say its a strong presence, and the sandalwood vanilla combo its laying on are just so freaking lovely. It almost smells spiced at this point? Very slightly, but its just soooo so good I cannot emphasize enough. I think the rum may be a spiced rum, but very lightly spiced. Like a hint of spice just to deepen the scent but not enough to say this scent is SPICY spicy. It does also veer away from Black Opium after a while, but I do think it still bears a resemblance to it until it becomes a skin scent. This scent is hard to explain because it is blended very well, and I dont feel like its flat or linear. The sillage was decent and the longevity was quite good for being unrested, or even just in general. This perfume was an instant love for me, but it would be nice for more fruits to speak up a little more. If you like Black Opium or other flor-mand fragrances like it, you'll probably enjoy this. The white florals aren't pissy or granny, but I would love for some bubble gummy tuberose to show up. I'm literally rambling now, so I'll stop it here. In conclusion, its fcking good.

I have never smelled the original...but I have also never smelled a scent exactly like this one until now...because if I had 😳 It would have been declared a LOooong time ago as one of my favorites 🥰 All of the notes seem pretty basic and familiar, which is exactly what some reviewers were saying about this one...but it’s so much more than basic to my nose. Maybe it’s the rum? Either way, I’m sooooo glad that I did not prejudge this one and took a chance. This one is a bright & light, but not too light, scent that I can safely wear to the office...smelling fresh, clean & happy without triggering complaints or comments from the “I prefer my own natural scent” crowd 😂🤢...as far as they know...this IS my own natural scent...you know...clean. Also, the bottle is very pleasing to the eye. This is definitely a keeper in my book and for those that don’t enjoy this scent or find it to be basic...you have my condolences, thoughts & prayers...and also please send me your unwanted bottles expeditiously 😉 Thank you 😘

If you have Kayali WSS or a dupe of it, layer it with this one and thank me later. You’re welcome. I love this perfume. Don’t understand the negative reviews but it’s ok. Everything is not for everyone. This is a sophisticated scent. It’s not too fruity, not too sweet, not too floral. It was balanced very well. Just sad about the ugly bottle 😂 the tuberose works so well. Found my favorite summer scent for work. It’s not offensive in the office setting and I keep getting compliments when I wear it.

Creamy fruits with a touch of rum and pleasant musk. Reminds me of the classic Nivea cream a lot. Initially I wasn't impressed, it seemed a bit boring, but now I actually like it a lot. It wears easy, l like to lift it with a touch of citrusy freshness of another perfume, especially in hot weather. Nice spring/summer fragrance with good perfomance. I always overspray though. Nothing groundbreaking, but I don't think I've got anything similar in my perfume collection. I'd repurchase.

It surprised me how much I enjoyed wearing this today. It was perfectly juicy with the peach and pear notes but it was smoothed with the base of sandalwood, musk and a touch of vanilla. I did bring it to the office with me and gave myself a couple touch up sprays. I can't say it reminds me of anything I've had before. Fruity florals can be tricky but this was well-done. There is a youthfulness to it but wearable for all ages.

Got this for my wife, in the opening it's a well done juicy fruit smell, mostly from the pear and peach with florals behind it, I don't sense any rum in it. As it starts to dry down you get a faint iris/orris with prominent white florals. It dries down as this soft mellow creamy(probably from the sandalwood), touch of vanilla but mainly iris/orris that's so cozy and elegant.

Just got this one. Bottle is interesting. Good quality and unique to my collection. The fragrance notes are a fuity/floral but it well blended and not one seems to be dominant. It's sweet. For me it was a safe blind buy. I think it's neutral enough that it's season specific and can be worn day/night. Also would be fun to layer.

oohhhh!!! this is a delicious scent! first spray was very sharp and didn't understand what everyone was talking about. i let it rest for just a couple of hours, went back to it, and it was completely different! i'm so happy i got this one!

Okay this fragrance smells amazing a fresh sweet white floral with some vanilla now this is a great dupe for Hundred Silent Ways by Nishane however AZM is more fruity and with a hint of rum it’s really good

It's really good. Fruity, strong, very outstanding - you've never smelled anything like this before and people will turn their heads.

This is actually so pretty, I really love this. Great price point great longevity, definitely a crowd pleaser in my opinion.

Not understanding where all the hate is coming from. This smells very similar to the original.

Amazing fragrance! I have HSW and Hidden Accords, it’s definitely a sister to both!

Love at first sniff! One of my best blind buys. I absolutely love this fragrance.

I get more florals than fruit, nice soft clean scent for spring and summer.

1:1 to HSW, somehow even deeper in the drydown and longer lasting.

Let it macerate ppl! It is beautiful when macerated

Let it macerate and u will love it then!!

Nicely created. Fruity+Floral+Woody.

* Very nice floral/fruit/gourmand hybrid fragrance * Good blend of fruit, citrus, rum, flowers, vanilla and musk aromas * Versatile; works in pretty much every occasion and environment * Unisex * Designer quality for discounter price * Good performer * Good presentation * Might lean too feminine for some male users * Floral lovers may be thrown off by gourmand notes * Gourmand lovers may be thrown off by florals * Not good for very hot weather * Powdery note on finish seems out of place Paris Corner's AZM is purportedly a clone of Nishane's Hundred Silent Ways. Judging solely on its own merits, this is a pretty nice hybrid fragrance that mixes the floral, fruit and gourmand styles together. You'll pick up aromas of fruit, citrus, rum, flowers, vanilla and musk aromas. It all actually works together quite well, though there's a powdery note on the finish that seems a little out of place. It makes the fragrance tap out a bit heavy on the drydown and makes it unsuitable for very hot weather. Barring that, this is great for every occasion and environment. It works equally well for a professional occasion as it does for a social one. Male users might find this leans too feminine for them due to the florals, though the nice gourmand and musk notes do go a long way towards evening AZM out to a more unisex fragrance. It really depends on if it's gourmand enough for a man's liking with those rum and vanilla notes. Conversely, female users who love florals may be thrown off by the vanilla, rum and fruit notes. If you like it, then you'll also appreciate AZM's strong performance. It's a very good value, offering designer quality at a discounter price. Presentation is good and the bottle has a unique look. Recommended.

First impressions: Opens with a hot splash of alcohol for the first 15/20 min, then melts into boozy, caramelised peach. Like peach flambé set alight with a ribbon of dark rum. The sweetness is bright and friendly, with a “fresh-from-the-shower” feel, like clean skin wrapped in warm towels. As it settles, I get a churchy wisp of incense (not a note listed just my perception). More halo than smoke, keeping the fruit from turning dessert-heavy. Think toasted apricot with the natural sugars caramelising. The vanilla amber base glows throughout, and a gentle sandalwood hum anchors everything. Projection is moderate to strong after the opening. It wears close enough to feel intimate yet present. On first wear, longevity seems comfortable for day-into-evening. Seasonally, for me it straddles moods: the fruit says summer, the incense and musk whisper cooler nights. Perfect for late summer into autumn. My hang-up is that it leans a bit “meh”. Pleasant but lacking. I wouldn’t call it boring - just not special. It reminds me of those fruity rollerball perfume oils in brown glass vials. Could be a grower with a few wears and lighter dosing. Equally could be a fragrance you get sick off quickly. I’ll test it on cooler evenings and sweaters. Not a bad scent, just one I’m still deciding whether I feel or merely wear.

This smells very pleasant. That said, it doesn’t smell like tuberose at all to me. Instead, it comes across as a subtle gourmand. Imagine a blend of candied pears and peaches layered over soft white florals, resting on a slightly woody base, with vanilla as the backbone holding everything together. In the air, it smells just like fresh pastries; surprisingly realistic. I left the blotter in a room, and for five hours, every time I walked back in, I caught myself wondering, “Why does it smell like pastry in here?” Then I’d remember it was this fragrance. As a gourmand it's very classy and I would certainly recommend it over some obnoxiously sweet or loud ones. I haven't tried the hundred silent ways, so I can't comment on their similarities.

Update as of March 19: I bought a full bottle and have been able to test it out with the normal amount of sprays I do when I wear a perfume. It turns extremely powdery, almost dusty, during the first few minutes so be aware if you're not into that. I got a decant of this and perhaps it's the combo of the pear and tuberose but on my skin this smells like bubblegum and the powder that coats it. On paper I get more of the peach, but the pear truly reminds me of Kayali VCRS and I have no idea why this perfume is registering as it is to my nose. I'm still wondering if I should get a full bottle though, the only thing holding me back is how musky it is on the dry down. Also the powderiness can come off a bit dusty.

Lovely fruity floral that isn’t overly juicy or sweet. It’s perfectly balanced. Really nice! Great for every day and easy to wear. Smells similar to something I’ve worn in the past. Figured it out! Smells similar to when I was young and wore Miss Sixty. Very similar to that scent DNA. It’s a happy scent DNA. Edit - full wear test and it’s strong! 3-4 sprays and it was on the edge of being overwhelming for me. Next time I’m going to do only 2 sprays. Lasted 6-8 hours with it softening up around the 6 hour mark.

I was very confused before buying it and now I'm even more confused!!! Let's get out of the way the poor performance (that it's not fit for a smell like this). It's nice i like it... Powdery where? Idk... To me it smells like cream lotion tuberose vanilla and peach. And that's it... Do not a bad blind buy not an amazing one either. Would i buy again? No and because of the performance. Overall 6/10

Sorry, no offense, but I can't understand people that smells something like YSL Black Opium. Maybe my AZM bottle needs to rest. There is no coffe, no almond, no licorice, no patchouli notes in AZM. I don't say those people are wrong, I just wonder...

Just got this. Its pretty, very feminine and safe for day wear. For those saying it resembles Nishane's HSW. No, no it does not. But she is new, so I'll let her mature in the back of my closet and pull her out in a month or so.

A great spring and summer vibe with the peachy-pear-mandarin top and front. Adds a touch of the floral in mid and dries to a comforting fresh-floral-fruit scent. Pretty easy to like if that’s your vibe!

I like this one. I can't speak for it's similarity to the OG, but this is good. Clean, light, very feminine. Powdery dry down.

For me it opens just like hundred silent ways, but dries down into something way more powdery.

Just get NISHANE Hundred Silent Ways. This fragrance smells like a watered down mess. The difference between watching a fuzzy black and white TV back in the 1950's versus HD in 2026. This fragrance is seriously garbage. I own too many beautiful fragrances to give this anymore time. Returning. If you want a good affordable fragrance that's similar note breakdown and is much better try Venus De Milo or even Sharq is better than this. If you have a little extra to spend then ORIENTICA Dania is amazing, cost around $80 but well worth it. Or just get Hundred Silent Ways. Because this fragrance is not what real perfumery is about. UPDATE: Ok y'all. I lied 🙈🙈🙈 This sh*t is beautiful 🥹 I think it may be a little more powdery than HSW. HSW is brighter-fruitier. This isn't exact but definitely similar. I love it and will be keeping it afterall. Yes I can tell it isn't as high quality as some of my others but it still smells good. 🥰 I guess I just can't get enough of this dna.

Citrus-y mens shaving cream. My partner and I have been trying the last few weeks to make ‘Azm’ work, and while we agree it isn’t a bad or poorly constructed fragrance, its just unremarkable. We’ll be dragging her back out when the warmer weather hits to see if things change. Snagged for only $17 on an Aroma Concepts TikTok live in October, so its no devastating tragedy if things don't pan out! 🤠

Blind bought it after seeing a lot of reviews saying it is VERY close to hsw. This is very sweet and feminine. So if you're looking for a hsw dupe, this is not it, at least to my nose. But if you haven't smelled the OG, you might like this.

Not bad, but not exceptional. Office safe fruity floral. Very citrusy with a little peach. Bright, happy scent. Not getting comparisons to Black Opium. I will let my sample mature until spring and then maybe it will impress me more.

It really is a pretty fragrance & if you like HSW, you will enjoy this. It just isn't my type of scent. Idk what it is, it just isn't one that I am drawn to even though I do recognize that it is pretty.

Opens up similar to black opium that same fresh white floral, then adds a bit of coconut and musk in the dry down. It's very slightly sweet but it adds so much to it.

About 85–90% similar to Hundred Silent Ways. Fairly unisex.

Longevity is the problem 1 hr and dissapear

Writing review after a month of using it. The opening is sharp, synthetic and alcoholic. Doesn’t really open up with time. Linear and flat. Lacking depth. I don’t think it’s a good dupe to hsw. Honestly to me it’s not worth it at all, I bought it because I like 100 silent way a lot. Azm smells cheap. Very disappointing.

Tried this at my perfume lady and it smelled strange. I have never tried HSW but this had a weird note that I just can't put my finger on it.

HSW is my favorite fragrance and this is a sad attempt. Does not even come close. Also could the bottle be any more hideous??

Hideous bottle with a meh fragrance. Immediate return.

Horrible odd smelling perfume. It's not the same perfumes but it remind me when I smelled amouage guidance and had same repulsive aversion. I am thinking of people who love this scent feel confident walking around filling up the room with monstrosity, when in reality most people think you smell offensive just don't want to say it, it's just that one person in 100 that will compliment you and you think it's amazing compliment getter. A warm, heavy, sharp, "you are breathing down my neck" personality perfume :3

Just received this in mail and its horrible. It smell a bit like the old school nivea cream that use to come in metal tub but more floral heavy and very powdery and sharp. It also reminds me of CELESTE from giardini di toscana. I didn’t like that either.

This is an immediate nope Smells like a home cleaning product It's definitely not a HSW original dupe Maybe the x version, not familiar with it Anyway I can't recommend this in any capacity Left it to macerate but I have little hope it make it wearable.

This smells really nasty on me! It literally smells some kind of cleaning product, where the formulators didn't even attempt getting a nice fragrance - they just threw something together to cover up the worst of the chemical smell, and called it a day!

I blind bought this because of the hype and many positive reviews. So, when my bottle arrived and i sprayed it for the first time, it was very faint. I could smell something nice but it was a mess and faint. The next day it smelled better but still very faint. I think the fragrance need some maceration/maturation. But what i smelled was all of the noten listed. Juicy and fresh pear with orange, smooth, little bit green tuberose and creamy sandalwood with vanilla and musk. Very comforting, clean, feminine and sweet. I dont ever smelled hsw so i cant compare but i can imagine!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who primarily gets the base notes from this (based on the note pyramid votes). I had HSW and sold it because the heavy base notes made me cough. So far, this is more tolerable to me and isn't suffocating. On the other hand, I wish I got more of the fruits and rum. Lastly, the powder in this is so similar to what I get from iris/orris that I can't believe it's not listed in the notes. Because of the base notes I think this is entirely unisex and in the same ballpark as Kayaan Classic.

I used to loooove this DNA, but I think my sense has changed a bit. It's still a very nice perfume, tho, it really resembles Hundred Silent Ways, Black Opium and so many others (maybe that's why I got a bit tired of it lol). There's even a nice and cheap Brazilian take on this DNA (Em Flor, from Avatim)! That said, about this one, it's strong and the rum is proeminent, but well blended. I just don't think I'll buy the full bottle because it's not in my preferences any longer.

Ive only just received this and I wouldnt usually comment on middle eastern fragrances until they have sat for a month or so as i know from experienve that they can change for the better. But I like this one already. It feels to me like a daytime, more wearable version of Black Opium. Pretty, sweet but not juvenile, wearable. Not offensive in anyway but also not boring/ generic either. Now its been out for a few months you can pick up for a really decent price also.
