Tonka

Well, I've been waiting for a long time to post this review! Honestly, I'm vegan and I live in a country where I don't have much choice of perfume. I had previously bought saint by kat von d online and boy, was it awful! After this, I want to leave a review for it too😂 Actually, I had to look for another vegan perfume and bought this one online too, because it was not available in stores. And until it reached my hand, I was really stressed that this might be the same as the previous one, but... This is wonderful! Before I became a vegan, I had famous perfumes like Ajmal, Versace and Dior. But I can say without a doubt that this one was the best perfume I smelled in my life. Apart from the written notes, I also feel a little coconut, cinnamon, cherry, caramel and even coffe from this (I don't know how, but believe me, people around me say the same thing). And this is a wonderful combination of sweetness and a little spicy that is going to surprise your friends on dates! And wherever you go, you are going to answer this question: how good is your perfume, what is its name?? I have to say about the sillage and longevity: When I sprayed it on the first floor of the house, my sister shouted from the second floor: "Did you buy a new perfume?" And after 7-8 hours, even though I had only sprayed the first time, she asked me: Did you spray again? A few tips: on the skin, it is much more wonderful than on clothes and on the edge of the bottle. It's crazy on the hair. I am using it in summer and I think it is quite suitable, but if I wanted to choose, I would say that it is even better for cold seasons.

I stumbled upon this line today in Target, while I had actually gone there to check out what all the fuss was over Mixbar. I found this line to be MUCH better than any of mixbar's offerings. Where's the fanfare?! It's pretty quality for the pricepoint and the fragrances actually have some longevity to them. The Tonka in particular stole my heart, it's not pure Tonka at all, there are definitely other notes wrapped around it. I get vanilla, some type of light floral note and a woody undertone as well. This fragrance for me is everything I expected from Rhagba, which seems to be a hit for everyone but left me quite nauseated as it turns sticky after awhile and almost smells like...well... dry saliva. This fragrance manages to stay light somehow, even though it is woody and sweet. It stays fresh, imo and is wearable and cozy. It smells like a cream colored chunky sweater, lol I am going to do my best NOT to tell people about this because I want these fragrances to stay cheap and available, lol Highly recommend. Even if Tonka isn't your cup of tea, so many of the others in this lineup are awesome! Wonderful for mixing and layering with more expensive fragrances.

I was wasting time In 🎯 the other day and noticed they had a full set of testers. I have always loved tonka bean in fragrances, it's one of my favorite notes. It is a predominant note in the fragrances I own. Needless to say I was so sad when the store closest to me didn't have any of it in stock... So I drove 7 miles across town to pick it up. THIS IS WHAT FALL SMELLS LIKE. Not syrupy sweet pie, mapley dessert concoctions... This is warm sweaters. Fall leaves freshly fallen in cool breezes. Warm fireside coffee with a hint of vanilla and cinnamon. A sexy hint of skin when snuggled in a blanket. I am OBSESSED, and I can't wait to see how this pairs with some of my other fragrances. This has a good spillage, but it sure is nice to have someone lean in and tell you that you smell delectable. ❤️

Oh my, this is *the* cosy fragrance I’ve been searching for and I still can’t believe how cheap it is! Someone said it’s the olfactory equivalent of a cashmere sweater, and I couldn’t agree more. It’s warm and addicting, feels like a hug. It will definitely shine in the colder months but I’ve been using now that it’s summer and I don’t find it cloying at all. I wish longevity was better, but for the price I don’t mind reapplying during the day. (I just got it about a week ago so I’m curious to see if it will perform better when it’s colder). Definitely good for layering, but I’ve been enjoying it on its own too. I even wear it to go to bed because I can’t get enough. My only regret with this perfume is that I didn’t discover it earlier.

this scent really does smell like a warm cashmere sweater. to my nose and on my skin, this is a soft, warm almond scent with a veil of ambery vanilla draped over it in a comforting, velvety way. the overall drydown is more akin to cozy cotton candy. i really can't get enough of this; as someone said before, it's a really good cozy yet casual scent, the type that makes you yearn for more without being too cloying. it's kind of addictive, really. this scent profile makes the most sense in the fall/wintertime, but because of how light and well-blended it is, you can really wear it any time of the year. my only real gripe is that the scent isn't as strong a performer as i wish it was, but it's still amazing for the price.
