Naki

This perfume is so good. As others have mentioned, it opens quite strongly. Citric and floral notes dominate. One could say it leans feminine, but as I man I feel like I could rock this. Despite how strong and sharp the opening and top notes are, I didn't find them synthetic. It reminded me of opening a bottle of citrus essential oils, strong but natural. The dry down is incredible, as the sharp notes simmer down significantly and you are left with a mildly aquatic floral that smells natural, bright, and full of life. It reminded me a lot of dragonfly, which I adore but would not wear because I found that one a bit too feminine on me. I think Naki strips down a little bit of the busyness of Dragonfly in the dry down. Performance was extremely good for a freshie. Sprayed on at 8 AM and could smell wafts from my skin until 6 PM or so. I've tried Amoral, Naki, Kama, Masar, and Vitias from the sample set so far and this is by far my favorite.

I could see myself committing to a full bottle of this... It's been like meeting an old friend that I haven't seen in years! A warm hug and a conversation while walking by the sea, barefoot. That's how friendly this is. Edit: Although I like it, on my skin it turned aci/rancid in the dry down (after 2 hours approximately). Not a blind buy, test on skin not just paper. It really changed in an unexpected way. The kind of perfume I would have bought by sniffing the bottle!

I've tasted this smell before... Ah yes, the reasonable priced hotel with a decent continental breakfast with a juice dispenser. My eyes wander between classics such as orange juice, but today I'm feeling something different. Passionfruit, Orange, Guava juice commonly known as POG juice. The juice feels watery, but for some reason is syruppy sweet. The discrepancy between texture and taste is discombobulating. However, you just need a sugar rush to attend to your corporate meeting so ignore the juice and check out. It's a ripe, sweet juicy scent with slight florals to add freshness. It's a balanced sweet fun scent for warmer days. It nice, but there are better options with similar scent profiles on the market. I have a hard time finding a purchase worthy scent from this house.

Tried this from the Pernoire discovery set. Naki is a pleasant tropical-fruity scent with soft florals and a clean musky base, all wrapped in a noticeable powdery veil. It reminds me of other fragrances in the same genre, but what really surprised me is how long it lasts — amazing performance for such a fresh and powdery composition (7–12h easily). Still, at this price point, I expected something more distinctive. I’ll enjoy my sample, but won’t be buying a full bottle.

First impressions from my sample: I do not like passion fruit, peach or green notes. And yet, here I am blown away by Naki. I sprayed it on the back of my hand and immediately got a super fresh fruit vibe with greenness from the fig leaf. For once, the greenness didn't smell like grass to me! The drydown gets super creamy with the sandalwood and a hint of the vanilla. This is gonna be such a vibe for spring/summer, I can already tell!

To my nose it starts out like a feminine fruity sour blast. The dry down is a different story as the fruit starts fading away, it mildly lingers in the composition. Turns into a super versatile masculine leaning scent to my nose. A strong like. I think this is signature scent worthy. Something very distinct, quite unique if worn as a man. Wait for the drydown. rating: 8/10

On first spray it definitely smells like Erba Pura. That goes away some and becomes more musky less sweet. It gets even better at the mid and dry down which are incredible. I get no performance issues at all. Naki is a less playful more masculine alternative to Erba Pura that I'd rather have.

I think a lot of people would like this. It’s very sweet, fruity, anlmond and powdery. Would love a hug from a friend smelling like this. But it’s not a scent for me. Longevity 6/10 Projection 6/10 Love 5/5

I did not even check the notes when I first tested it from the discovery set and the first words that came to my mind were: EVIL PEACH! Fruity but very mischievous, strong and green. LOVE!

Once the initial juicy sweet blast fades, a tropical marine scent is revealed. I enjoy the whiffs of green, which can even lean a bit bitter (which I love!). At first I thought it was a scrubber, but once the scent settles it does become pleasant, although slightly powdery, which is a bummer. For this price it’s ridiculous. Do your wallet a favor and get something less pricey. It’s not a very original scent and I’m sure you’ll find something similar at a more reasonable price point.

Opens salty, aquatic-aldehydic and synthetic fruity The combination starts of very harsh and reminds me of an air freshener of some sort Very happy about the fact that it tones down by A LOT as it dries down It also becomes a unique combination of almonds and sea notes with slighty animalic salty ambergris touch Fragrance remains fruity and a bit green but along that also still a bit synthetic and for that reason i'm not the biggest fan of it

It's nice and quiet. I really like the vibe of the fragrance. However, it's not super unique and on the pricier side.

Sadly just a floral detergent. Not a bad one if Coccolino is what you’re looking for.

This is a lovely scent if you sniff it of a paper or from the bottle, but please try this before you buy it... This sweet, flowery scent might not be so sweet or flowery... All I get is a bitter scent at the beginning, like the stem of a flower or as someone else said, a vegetable. Very dirty.. after a while the scent becomes a bit sweeter, but the dirty smell upon opening keeps lingering.. overall its not a succes. Unless you like to smell like sweetened dirth. Also, the longevity is very bad. I can (luckily) barely smell it.

Upon first spray I got an Erba Pura–style DNA and I internally sighed 😅 — but that passes within seconds. What follows is a juicy mix of peach and passion fruit, lifted by green fig and a fresh, subtle spiciness. It stays bright and green rather than syrupy, with just enough fruit to keep it playful. If you like green scents with a fruity twist, this is surprisingly enjoyable. Remind me of a fruity version of Korres Avgoustos. My only bug bear with this is that it dries very powdery and could last a lot longer. IG/Tiktok: @wilddew_vibes

Another brand that think that they just have to throw a basic overexploited scent at outrageous prices on the market to become luxury. This is the passion fruit musky mess inspired by Erba Pura or Kirke, re-done and revisited a trillion times by Middle Eastern cheap brands such as Lattafa, to finally be relaunched by Pernoire for more than 400$/100ml. Don't be a sheep, don't be scammed by Naki, it's now too much associated with cheap dupes that everybody and his mother bought 3 years ago...

the opening was interesting - bright green/ vegetal yet sweet, something like maracuja in fueguia. once magnolia came in, it transformed into this weird savoury juice, that somehow smelled powdery and salty at once? to me it doesn't smell like a detergent, but im not a fan either. I also don't like the musks here, very synthetic. the drydown is bitter vegetable stems, quite realistic. but not sure why would anyone choose this as their scent...

This one is an interesting unisex fragrance with a unique personality. The scent leans slightly woody and spicy, with a soft underlying sweetness. It’s not for everyone, but those who enjoy bold yet balanced compositions might appreciate it.

I am decluttering and selling this bottle, sprayed once for testing. I'm based in UK so UK only Drop me a private message to grab it :) Here's the picture of the bottle: https://ibb.co/7ttCxg6D
