Cloud Collection

I never would have thought that I'd like sea buckthorn so much in a perfume. Here in Germany this fruit is often used in stuff like organic soda, jam or the diabetic chocolate I bought for my late grandpa when I was younger. I was never very fond of it. But it really works as a fragrance note! Sea buckthorn is also called 'the lemon of the north', but the fruitiness in Cloud Collection is not just tart and citrussy, it's also warm and milky like an apricot, but distinct and special. Not too sweet and not too sour. The opening is just refreshing! Then the woody notes unfold. I'm not sure which woods they used here, all I can say is that they smell warm and almost balsamic. It's quite woodsy in the drydown, but not like the screechy harsh wood notes in some other scents. This is a unique beauty and completely unisex. At the moment some voted it as similar to Gucci Rush (which I also love), but I don't see that at all, it's much more versatile and just completely different. It's soft but intense, and kind of nostalgic to me but I guess that's a regional/personal thing. The only downside is the price, really.

This one is lava lamp groovy, with separate liquids rolling around in the bottle. One is advised to shake it for four seconds (shaking a lava lamp is not suggested, though the result is the same) until it turns cloudy, before spraying. Spicy-tart sea buckthorn at the opening, and leather, then thirty minutes later the berries turn sweet and creamy, with a smooth oud-y base. The fruit lasts on the skin for three hours--about the time it takes for the perfume salad dressing in the bottle to separate again--but the sweet woods project much longer and louder, and linger on clothes all day. The scent lives up to the novelty of the liquid. The sea buckthorn (which I love in tea and candy) is unusual, a berry version of the lemon custard in Aqua Allegoria Teazzarro; and the base is rich as any Fort & Manlé, with twice the longevity. I'll wear this one a lot this fall.

Как-то летела с пересадкой в Дании и от нечего делать начала заниматься любимым делом - гулять по дюти фри. Обнаружила данный бренд впервые, но, боги, насколько мне этот аромат зашёл!! Он прекрасен, такой фруктовый, с древесными нотками, будто окутывает тебя в вуаль. Когда глянула ноты, не ожидала там увидеть облепиху. Могу сказать, что он шлейфовый, так как когда сидела с друзьями в ресторане на терассе, легкий ветерок разносил мой аромат и окутывал окружающих. Стал одним из любимых! Один минус - его надо взбалтывать, то есть, отливант в сумочку себе не сделаешь. Хотя, с другой стороны, он держится достаточно долго на теле, а на одежде неделями. Как-то достала кофту спустя месяц, а она до сих пор пахла. Однозначно рекомендую любителям фруктово-древесных ароматов.

Warm, fruity and refined. A fruity perfume for grownups. I was expecting a scent more "quirky" than this one and more raw sea buckthorn. It's there but still discrete. It's different but still somewhat common (leather and jasmine maybe). I agree that it is an all occasion easy to wear perfumes for those who still want something different. Not sure I'll buy a full bottle though. Edit : ok finally it grew on me and this is an awesome scent. Fizzy soft peach milkshake or something like that.

This perfume has been among my go-to favorites for some years now. You can wear it anytime, it's complicates enough without taking too much focus. On me it's a skin-like scent, but a wonderful one. Other women compliment me on it, a few smells coconut in it too, but not me ;-) I wear perfume every day, and this one is perfect for working, daytime, and goes in all occasions, though I would choose something else for going out at night and I do not find it sexy.
