Stone For Her

ohhhh MY GOD, this is a scrumptious, moist, chewy bitter almond cookie...😋 'Stone for her' reminds me of historical Turkish sweet shops...long glass jars with copper lids of freshly made vivid candies...scents of rose🌹 water, orchids, vanilla, warm bitter almond cookies fresh out of the oven...this fragrance is just asking for a fresh cup of Turkish coffee☕ on the side... Invokes something nostalgic... The scent opens with a delicious orange🍊/mandarin/bitter marzipan combo that reminds me so much of Dior Poison Girl's opening. Then it slowly transitions into orchid, vanilla, cashmere wood, tonka, sandalwood...all the delectable notes that I love... They are harmonious in this fragrance. On my skin I don't get any funky smells that other reviewers have commented...instead a vanillary, moist bitter almond cookie. This I DARE SAY is ALMOST GOURMAND🧁. Silage and longevity are on par with Aquolina's Pink Sugar. VERY STRONG for eau de toilette and performs better than most eau de parfums I've used/tried. Overall I'm so glad I blind bought this, I've been looking for an irresistible bitter almond perfume because the Poison Girls don't really cut it for me in that department. CRIMINALLY underrated! This is just quality blended fragrance PERFECT for any environment during winter⛄ to early spring🌷

I like this one! Ordered it for very cheap (about 10 USD for a 50 ml bottle), and I think it is very pleasant comfort scent. Still I would not say it is a safe blind buy because of the artemisia. That note makes it smell like caugh syrup a bit in the first hour. I love that smell but I know some does not. It reminds me of manifesto (I don't have it I tried it in a perfumery, so it is just first impression) also the creamy warm vanilla in Christina Aguilera by Night. I would not say they are identical, so I keep both of them. I think it is very likeable, I love the dry down too. ANd actually I love the bottle! One of my favourite color is that dark purple which is the color of the bottle, and kind of reminds me of a beautiful amethyst. I keep it on my shelves because it has a calming effect on me. :D Now I think I could wear it in any season and day and night (I am a big fan of sweet milky vanilla scents), but will see.. :)

I bought a 30 ml of this over two years ago, maybe even three. It was a blind buy, with hopes that it would be a dupe for Manifesto l'Elixir. At first, I thought it was a failed purchase. I could hardly detect any vanilla or gourmand notes it was supposed to have. Instead, I smelled something green—probably a mix of artemisia and citruses. Disappointed, I put it back in the box, tucked it away in a dark closet, and forgot about it. A few weeks ago, while sorting through items to give away or sell, I came across it again. Just to be sure, I decided to test it one more time—and wow, it smells amazing now! The vanilla is more prominent, and the scent has softened. I can't pinpoint any specific notes, but the fragrance is very pretty. It’s sweet and ambery. There’s still a hint of something green and slightly citrusy, but now it’s more in the background. Too bad it's discontinued now.

It is so much fun to discover another very big like/love from my own collection lol. I bought this a few years ago and back then I didn't know manifesto by ysl yet. Today I sprayed just one spray of this delicous juice at the side of my neck, and me and others could smell it for several hours. It is indeed very similar to manifesto. And as I like that one a lot, I also like this one very much. If my bottles of this and manifesto will ever finish, this will be my choice for repurchase because of it's great price. I recommend this to everyone who likes sweet scents. My nose is not refined to pick out notes unfortunately, so I can't give any information about that, but I do know that I like it very much and that it gives me joy every time I catch a whiff of it.

I was worried this was going to be too sweet from the reviews, bought it on ebay for a crazy deal and I'm super impressed. This smells SO MUCH more expensive than what it's actually worth! It actually reminds me of a perfume I used to wear as a teen - almond and coconut EDT by Laura Mercier but more grown up and sexy. It's sweet, nutty and creamy but in a sensual, expensive way. Also very versitile, I can see myself wearing this in any season day or night. Highly recommend, even for a blind buy.

Starts off smelling exactly like Kenzo Amour. Which is great. Five minutes later, it turns into Germaline. Which is less than great. Half an hour later still, and it's back to Kenzo, which is again, great, because Kenzo Amour lasts about five minutes on my skin. This lasts all day. To sum up, a lovely, inexpensive fragrance, for the woman who doesn't mind taking half an hour out of her busy life to smell like she fell out of her Grandmas medicine cabinet, into a bath full of root beer.

This is such a gem! And the price is ridiculous given the quality composition and lasting power! It's so creamy, so powdery, so sweet in a soft, inoffensive, feminine way. An exquisitely delicious almond-vanilla combo! One of the best blind buys ever! The bottle is adorable, too!

Love this one! Is made for vanilla perfume lovers! It does have some similarities with Kenzo Amour, but in my opinion is a little bit better. It lasts few hours and it has a great sillage on me. The bottle is cute as well. I would definitely recommend it!

A very complete fragrance, a rich smell, a wonderful mix of vanilla and sensual almond. It has amazing projection and longevity, the price is unbeatable and the smell reminds me of Manifesto L'Elixir , but better! (Yes, I said it and I don’t regret it)

Not as sophisticated as Chanel Allure or YSL Manifesto but definately a close hit. Despite being a Replay with this designe it is not sooo youthful. It is more feminine vanilla!!!! Quite good longivity!

Basically a Manifesto l'Elixir dupe! really happy i found this one since ysl`s manifesto costs about 90 dollars where i live. 100% worth it.

I am going to give my opinion of this perfume based on my experience directly with it without going into similarities with other perfumes, since I have not tried the ones that are suggested. I just bought it because I liked the notes and I thought I was going to like it. This fragrance has a characteristic smell that I do not identify and I think it comes from the artemisia note since it is the only ingredient, which I don't know how it smells by itself. Right from the start we can already notice that it is a very powerful scent, since the citrus notes that could bring freshness and soften it a bit are hardly perceived, and almost immediately, we can smell the Orchid and almond blossom that evolve rapidly to the base notes. It is a fragrance where amber is very noticeable, the color of the liquid can be seen to be dark, despite its purple bottle, and for this reason I would be careful with spraying them on light-colored clothes. In addition to the amber, the woods and sandalwood are very noticeable and the sweetness of vanilla and Tonka bean as well. It's a bomb and if they told me it's an eau de parfum I would totally believe it. Its sillage is moderate and its longevity is long for an EDT, lasting on my skin for more than eight hours and on clothes, it lasts even after washing.

The most prominent note in this perfume is the almond note.it isn’t a natural almond though,it smells like dry marzipan as another fragrantican wrote before me.However, it doesn’t smell edible since it clashes with the orchid,and it reminds me me of a version of Armani code satin only not entirely a dupe if. The mandarin orange and the bergamot in the background gives it a zesty kick at first but as the perfume stages progress,it becomes warmer (due to the Tonka bean),creamier (due to the sandalwood),more powdery and a tad sweeter and more edible which makes it lean towards Armani satin even more. As with the Armani satin, I am left undecided with this one, there are specs of this I love and aspects which make me feel unsure.Although, to give this one more credit, it doesn’t’t give me the bug-spraying undertone satin does.Whoever loves satin this is a good dupe, whoever missed on it and wonders what it was like, well, this one will give you a pretty good idea 😁

As a vanilla lover, all I could pick up with my, as yet, inexpert nose was oranges, mandarin to be precise and then the sandalwood came though for me, then the vanilla. I did also get a slight hint of pencil sharpenings on my skin but annoyingly it smelt much stronger richer, deeper and more velvety when I tried it on my husband so probably down to my skin chemistry. I got it as a blind buyfor a bargain price maybe 10 - 15 euros and I will keep it for sure as an everyday go to. Also great from bringing on holiday as the groovy 30ml bottle is so tiny it would slip right into that liquids only plastic bag at security. Well worth a spin at the reasonable prices it sems to be selling for. Would I buy it again, probably not but enjoying having this bottle and see if it grows on me.

This fragrance is so unique and nice, I'm totally in love with it! It's warm vanilla with some orange and a lot of artemisia. The herbal note is fading after an hour or two, and on my skin it becomes a sandalwood-vanilla incense. It's calming and makes me introverted like the incense stick's fragrance, I go full zen when I wear it :D I never had a perfume with artemisia, but it's just amazing and beautiful. If it was in a Dior bottle I'm sure it would be out of stock in 10 minutes (with a $150 price tag on it). I bought my 30 ml bottle for 12 euros... Sillage and longevity are amazing too.

When I asked a sales assistant for a warm,sweet vanilla perfume,feminine and sophisticated with reasonable price,she introduced me replay stone.shame on me I even didn't know about this brand so I didn't buy it,however she sprayed my scarf with it I could catch whiffs of sweet velvety powder til night,to be honest,I felt great in that warm,cozy cloud of almondy vanilla/tonka,orchid.it was sweet but definitely sophisticated and long-lasting I don't need even one more perfume,but replay stone smelt just as I like and it has an adorable bottle I may go back for it ;)

This is such a pleasant surprise! One of the best-sophisticated vanilla scents I own, and it was a blind buy that I added to an online purchase due to its very low price. It is sweet, deep, almost smoky but also has a slight green aspect to it that somehow elevates it and keeps you guessing. I went back to get back ups and, what do you know, it is sold out everywhere. If you find a bottle for a descent price, don't overthink it.

This is increadible good,on me better than Manifesto, for me they smell the same, but it lasts longer and projects also longer and better, a beast..soooo glad and I payd 27 € for 100ml!!! I hope so that they don't change anything about it..it will be for lifetime to use! It was a blindbuy, because I saw that this was a resamblence of Manifesto! Lucky me it turned out fantastic!

I'm still not sure whether I really liked this or just liked it... I scented something similar to liqourice in it... Not sure what note or mix of notes it was but it was ok although I think it'd be fine or better without it. Need to try it again but I'll admit that it's not bad. It's worth blind buying (if it's not full price).

Blast of orange & artemisia leads into a vanilla/almond/tonka heady blast of divinity. Definite dupe for Manifesto L'Elixir, which is discontinued. Lasts well over 8 hrs on skin, days on clothes. Perfect for autumn & winter, must-have if you can still find it.
