Black Label Women

Someone wrote they smell magnolia in this one and I do, too. It is more powdery than citrusy, for me. Not my style, but still a lovely scent. After two hours, I can definitely smell violet. It seems a bit less powdery. What is refreshing about this perfume is that it stays smelling like a fresh bouquet of flowers. It smells exactly as if I just leaned over a vase of flowers and smelled them. This freshness is different than other violet perfumes I've tried. For this reason, I am debating whether to get this perfume even though flowery perfumes are not exactly my style.

I've been wearing this for the past two weeks now, it's a bubbly one that has a similar vibe to Tommy Hilfiger's Pear Blossom. It's easy to wear but it's longevity is not great, something like 1-2h, then you'll feel the need to reapply. It's winter now, so I like to layer it with one puff of Si Armani to give it a vanilla boost and more warmth. Only worth getting it if you find it super discounted.

This smells very nice. Soft, creamy, a bit sweet and fruity. On my skin, it’s not really powdery. It’s not groundbreaking, it’s a safe, comforting and feminine fragrance. It has a Narciso Rodriguez touch to it. Try it if you are looking for something fruity for cold days.

Nice! This is a clean perfume with fresh citrus and powdery notes. The soft violet stays close to my skin. It's not offensive at all and a safe choice to wear during a daytime job. It's not mind blowing, but I like it for those occasions!

After spraying: washing powder + grapefruit After 30 minutes: subtle flower: chinese magnolia or violet + hint of vanilla + cosmetic cream note + musk. For one second I could even smell vibes of L'Instant EDT (magnolia and vanilla, that flowery creaminess), but it was just an illusion, washing powder was the stronger note. It smells like typical roll on - creamy, flowery, nondescript, office friendly. Like a neutral deodorant you buy because it doesn't colide with your perfumes. The name suggests a darker fragrance (with patchouli, or chypre). Base notes are quite nice - after 5 hours it smells like fruity mandarin orange/ grapefruit body lotion (on my clothes, on skin it disappears faster)
