So starting with the brand they have had some good ones previously. Personally their momento is quite good.
Now costa de amalfi is i would say i like the smell as it is zesty yet calming and aromatic lasting on me is 4+ hours on skin now this is just on my skin it may last longer on others but mine only lasts nearly 4 hours projection is good
Fareed is ysls la nuit dupe smell is alright with spicy notes and goes down to calm earthy bit sweet powdery tone. But currently i dont know if its coz of the heat i have the same issue with the macerated versions of both this one also projects good but thn lacks longevity. May be its just for me lmk what are your thoughts i may be wrong

So when i was just getting into frags i got khair pistachio which i liked . It performed really great and also liked the fragrance. Thn i decided to order this one. Now i know many folks love this too, but i absolutely despise this. It smells like a straight up cough syrup to me. Boht ajeeb thi bhai smell lastly i gifted it to my sister 🤣😭 coz she liked this.

Hello,

So I purchased this Delina on Depop from an unknown seller (thinking it was the original) and I absolutely fell In love with it.

Unfortunately, I dropped it and completely shattered about a month ago. I then went to a department store to purchase and was shocked to realize the original one actually smelled differently - it has a strong musky / vanilla woody scent at the end, which I very much dislike.

I’m now in quest to search for the dupe that I fell in love with. It has the same lychee/floral scent profile but finishes with very refreshing fruity and floral note. Can someone please help me find this Delina dupe??? Much thanks

So i received mykonos perfumes yesterday and tbh i actually like the fragrances. Initially their longest lasting i would say is aphrodite which is seductive sweet on the feminine side
My favourite is california blue many people compare it with hawas ice which i agree but for me this one outperforms newer batches its clean fresh airy
From their gourmand lineup i really liked Chai crema latte, mostly gourmand scents are way too loud but this one is quite perfect it doesn’t scream with its projection yet lasts for quite a while. If you love sweeter scents definitely check this one out with warm spicy creamy smooth scent.

New to this so let me know if i made mistakes and i apologise in advance. I would love to hear from yall, so i can share more of these. If i should write in english or hindi too
Using hashtags coz i dont know if they work or not #fragrance

Hey everyone! 💕
I’ve recently discovered this new obsession and wanted to come on here to show my collection, explain the categories I put them in, give my honest thoughts on each one, and see what you all think! I find this all so fun and love reading everyone’s posts on here about their collections.
Here is my breakdown by row!

Top Left: The Bella Vita Collection (Birthday Gift)
Glam Woman: Not really a fan of this one, so I just have it in my uni/work category until it runs out. Maybe I’ll start to like it more as time goes on, but I do prefer it on the dry down.

Rose Woman: This is nice! Very easy to wear and smells pretty. Daytime category.

Date Woman: Also in my daytime category, I like this one too!

Senorita Woman: Not yet worn, but it will go in either uni/work or daytime depending on how much I like the vibe.

Middle Row: The Scent Reserve Dupes (Got an 8 for £39 deal!)
105 (Libre): Love this smell, but it doesn’t last very long on me. Uni/work category.

238 (Daisy): This is lovely! Feels fresh and clean, perfect for uni and work.

571 (J’adore): I don’t like this one as much, it feels a bit too similar to Daisy to me. Uni/work category.

63 (Goddess): Love this! Very nice for daytime when it’s not too hot outside.

284 (Black Opium): Since I have the original, this sits in daytime. To me, it doesn't smell much like the OG; it has an initial almost chlorine-like smell on first spray, but the dry down is better.

147 (Love Don't Be Shy): Got this because who wouldn't want to smell like Rihanna? I love it, but it doesn’t last long. It’s currently in evenings, but I might move it to daytime because I have Oakcha Sweet Addict on the way to take its place for evenings!

149 (Baccarat Rouge): Love this one too, but again, doesn’t last the longest. Evening/occasions category.

344 (Good Girl): Very nice! This is actually the longest-lasting one of my Scent Reserve dupes. Evening/occasions category.

Top Middle & Right
Ted Baker Elodie: This is nice, though it’s quite a strong floral scent which isn’t usually my absolute favorite. Daytime category.

Born Lovely by SJP: I like this one a lot for daytime. Super wearable!

My Layering Bases: Lush Vanillary Solid, plus Choco Musk, Pistachio, and Marshmallow perfume oils.

Bottom Row (All Evenings & Occasions)
Lady Million (Mini): This is nice, but it’s a splash mini without a spray so it doesn’t project quite as well.

Black Opium (Original): I love this, but unfortunately, it doesn’t last very long on me 🥺 I wish it did because it’s beautiful.

Xtina by Christina Aguilera: LOVE THIS. Definitely a hidden gem that I hardly ever see people talk about. It’s fruity and sweet but still lovely for evening, lasts long, is very affordable, and always gets compliments!

Zadig & Voltaire This is Really Her!: Love this one too, lasts incredibly well.

Ghost Orb of Night: One of my absolute faves. It’s more affordable and always gets me compliments.

Angel Fantasm by Mugler: I didn’t like this at first, but it has completely grown on me! It's so different from anything else I have, always gets compliments, and is SO long-lasting. Definitely the longest-lasting one I own (I think it’s a Mugler thing, my Alien bottle just ran out and that was a beast too!).

On the Side (New Purchases Not Yet Tried)
Al Rehab Choco Musk Spray (Will probably go to daytime)

Lattafa Khamrah (Will definitely be an evening/occasion scent)

My Absolute Favorite Combo Experiments So Far:
Lush Vanillary layered with Ghost Orb of Night (Stunning!)

Choco Musk Oil layered with 344 (Good Girl dupe)

Pistachio Oil layered with 238 (Daisy) and also with 63 (Goddess)

Marshmallow Oil layered with 147 (LDBS)

Please let me know your thoughts, I’d love to hear them! And if anyone has any UK-affordable recommendations you think I’d like based on my taste, please drop them below! Thank you❤️❤️

Titan Skinn has launched Amalfi Bleu a few years ago. It was inspired by the famous Italian Amalfi Coast. Amalfi Coast is an inspiration for many citrus fragrances like Acqua di Parma Fico di Amalfi and Tom Ford Mandarino di Amalfi. The perfumers behind Amalfi Bleu are Thierry Bessard and Alexandre Freile. Amalfi Bleu was inspired by the blue sea, aromatic herbs and, citruses of the Amalfi coast.

Titan Skinn Amalfi Riviera extends the original creation into a fresher, and more citrus-forward direction. It is less “blue” and more fresh citrus-driven, and has marine notes. It is designed as a unisex fragrance. 

The perfumer behind the Skinn Amalfi Riviera is Santosh Shinde. He has created fragrances for several Middle Eastern brands like French Avenue, famous affordable luxury brand Massimo Duti, and Titan Skinn – Nox Oud.  

Classification

Fresh citrus marine fragrance.

When did I Buy Titan Skinn Amalfi Riviera?

2026

The Scent

Titan Skinn Amalfi Riviera is a fresh citrus fragrance ideal for daytime usage during warm weather.  

 Notes

The listed notes include:

·         Bergamot, lemon, green

·         Mandarin, ginger, vetiver, black pepper

·         sea salt, cedarwood, marine accord

Notes - what I can smell

It is hard to detect all these notes. From what I can smell, the fragrance has a very prominent marine note, and it has a fresh-citrus note too. It is a very light and airy fragrance. The scent is largely linear and I did not detect many transitions. Although not listed, I detect “musk” after the top notes evaporate. The most dominant note is the marine note which quickly settles into. Overall, it is a well crafted fragrance with no harsh opening; best suited for India’s warm climate.

Who will enjoy Amalfi Riviera?

While no fragrance is suitable for everyone, this seems is likely to appeal to a large demographic, especially, young men. Because the fresh citrus note is not overpowering and the opening is smooth, it will also appeal men under 50 - mature men. Because the Indian climate is warm for most of the year, and some parts of India are warm throughout the year, this fragrance is usable for a long time.

Considering most fragrance launches in this price category coming from Middle Eastern fragrance houses are cloning niche scents, which not everyone enjoys, Amalfi Riviera will appeal to a larger range of fragrance users. Over the last few years, even among the fresh fragrances, pineapple, mango, and, orange notes have become dominant like Rare Reef, Marwa, Nitro Platinum, Qaeed Al Fursan, and Vulcan Feu. These fragrances do not appeal to everyone. In the past, fragrances that had broad appeal are CK One, Nautica Voyage, D&G Light Blue, etc. Skinn Amalfi Riviera falls into this category.

Skinn Amalfi Riviera is an airy, uplifting fragrance. Fresh-citrus and marine notes have good acceptance among Indian fragrance users.

Gender

I assumed Skinn Amalfi Riviera would be a male fragrance - like their previous, Amalfi Bleu, fragrance, which had a female version, but their website classify it as unisex. In my opinion, in the Indian context, this will continue to be used largely by men.

Performance, Longevity & Sillage

Longevity: 3-6 hours.

Sillage & Projection:

This type of fragrance DNA is not very strong in projection. Performance is decent and average. The sillage is average. If you overspray and apply it on clothes, you can achieve better performance.  

Wearability and Best Occasions:

It is best suited for warm weather especially during the day. Not a fresh like a shower gel fragrance, but it works well in most situations. One can also use this fragrance for special occasions – in the evening during summer. This works best with polo shirt, chinos or jeans.

Is Skinn Extreme Signature Scent Worthy?

Not really; it is not particularly distinctive as a signature scent. Marine accords have become less common owing to the shift toward gourmand fragrances, You are unlikely to come across many people using this fragrance profile.

Downside

It is an average performer by the standards of those who expect "beast mode" longevity. That said, most designer fresh citrus fragrances are not meant to last that long. Personally, if a fragrance performs well for 4–6 hours, I feel it is worth considering. If someone is looking for a beast mode fragrance, Skinn Amalfi Riviera is not the right choice.

Final Thoughts & Alternatives

I have been using Titan Skinn Amalfi Riviera over the last few weeks since the weather is warm. I have been using it extensively during sports and workouts Skinn Raw used to be my preferred fragrance until now, but this time I chose Amalfi Riviera as my Raw ran out. I do think it is worthy scent for the price. I bought this at ₹3,095 for 100 ml. Most desirable Middle Eastern fragrances now cost upwards of ₹2000–₹2,500; many users might find this to be slightly pricey. But the biggest advantage with Skinn fragrances is that they are IFRA certified- they are safe to use on skin, and one can always find testers at nearby stores like Lifestyle, Shoppers Stop, and Titan stores. So one does not have to expensive, under-performing decants or blind buy"hyped" fragrances. Along with Skinn Raw, Verge, Nox, and Aura, I hink Amalfi Riviera is a worthy addition from Titan Skinn.

 

Classification

Woody fresh herbal/green

When I Bought It

2024

The Scent

It is an woody fresh uplifting scent that reminds me of fragrances from late 1990s toearly 2000s like Burberry for men

Vibe: woody, Green, fresh, clean, masculine, and mature.

Notes -what I can smell

Fragrance world website didn't have much details about notes when I bought it. This is a clone of Brioni EDT or EDP. I'm not sure if this is even true because the notes of both these fragrances are different from what Fragrantica lists for all these three.

From Brone what I can smell are Bergamot and lemon in the opening, Galbanum and nutmeg in the middle, and vetiver, oakmoss, and woody notes in the base. This seems like a very light lemon-vetiver-woody note fragrance. Even though fragrantica lists many more notes like lavendar, patchouli, and tonka, I can probably smell earthiness of patchouli which goes very well with oakmoss, and vetiver.

Is it Dated?

Some people call it old-fashioned, but I find it classic and timeless. It is ideal for a mature men who loves classic smelling fragrances.

Performance and Wearability

The formulation is highly versatile and inoffensive.

Office Safe: This is one of the office-safe fragrances for a mature man. It smell like man with a class.

Wearability: Safe for virtually all occasions, from the office to a casual evening out. It's especially suited for summer and monsoon(Asia) seasons.

The fragrance is quite mild and quickly turns into intimate scent very quickly.

Signature Scent Worthy?

Yes. It's unique enough now that you won't find many others wearing this fresh woody herbal fragrance which was popular in the early 2000s.

Downside

Unfortunately, the performance of the current formulation is its biggest con.

• Longevity: I only get less than 3 hours of wear time even though the bottle has been sitting for a few months(those who believe in maceration, i don;t)
• Projection: Mild and intimate.

This is a close cousin of CK One in terms of projection and performance. Performance is the biggest con of Brone EDP. It doesn't even seem like EDP, it performs like cologne

Final Thoughts & Alternatives

Brone by Fragrance world is a fantastic scent for a mature man who appreciates fresh woody clean scent and doesn't mind a soft performance. It has a very smooth opening. For the price, this does punch above its weight. It is not a blind buy worthy fragrance because this style of scent were popular a few decades ago. If you like fragrances from the 1990s and early 2000s, do try Brone EDP by fragrance world.
