Essenza Miracolosa

This is almond/caramel/amaretto HEAVEN! 🥰 I just received the Genre Parfums dupe as well & I smell exactly what the notes list for this original! While I haven't smelled the original, I'd guess this is exactly how it smells. I smell creamy caramel drizzled over chocolate almonds with some amaretto! It's smooth, warm, and inviting. Luckily, the caramel is not burned and it's a sweet caramel that isn't sickly sweet. I definitely DON'T SMELL buttered popcorn or banana Greek yogurt. It doesn't smell weird and I don't think it smells like Cheirosa '71 either because that has the weird buttered popcorn note that I can't stand. I'm very sensitive to that popcorn note because it doesn't evoke good memories for me, so I'm very glad my Genre dupe has zero trace of popcorn! I know everyone's nose is different but the people I've talked to who also own Genre's version and this original have said that their Genre dupe is pretty accurate! In fact, I love to compare originals with dupe houses like The Dua Brand, Genre Parfums, Dossier, Dapper, Oakcha, etc., so I guess I should get a decant of Essenza Miracolosa Peccato Originale and update this entry.

Love at first sniff for me. I am so glad that they have re released it, even though in only one country, different brand/ bottle etc. Thanks to Silvia Monti for bringing this back. My friend introduced the original to me and the juice was dark and beautiful. It is so well blended and you smell so many of the notes; the amaretto, cacao, almond, caramel, vanilla and sandalwood. The Sandalwood grounds it a bit but this is gourmand at it's best. It is not cloying but you will smell delicious. I receive many compliments. I like the new packaging actually but It does not look as unisex as the original. The juice in the new one is light and I look forward to what it will smell like when the juice darkens over time.

This might just be the best gourmand I've come across!. P.s im a gourmand LOVER so i have tried/own A LOT of gourmands. This is the only gourmand fragrance that actually makes me hungry lol. Smells like a ferrero rocher!. Milk chocolate, nutty, caramel, creamy and ofcourse sweet. This to me is a better version of italica. Not that it's a dupe but it does remind me of italica for some reason. (I think its the milkyness). This is like white chocolate cocopops with caramel and almond and hazelnut. But not cloying. Sooooooo delicious!!!!!!🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

I'm not sure why the first reviewer said not to confuse this for a gourmand? This is the best gourmand I've ever tried! Even better than Roja Sweetie Aoud in my opinion. This is a comforting, sweet but not cloying unisex fragrance. Its sooooo good I need a bottle soon! For me the caramel was the main note I was getting, so delicious. Might edit this later with more once I smell it more from my little sample ー🎅

What I went through to net this perfume lol. It was worth it though. There are still old formulations of this being sold so beware ( I learned the hard way ) the old formulation is green and spicy . I got mine from the Limitedgallery.Ae for a total of $200, it took a few weeks to get here but they have the gourmand formulation. It reminds me of accident a la vanille and Christmas cookies from B&BW
