What’s your favorite? Any other ones worth mention?

Very rarely do creators suggest good perfumes, this was one of those rare times. Recently saw a reel of a big creator suggesting ajmal raindrops, and today while i was out saw an ajmal store and who doesn’t wanna try frags 😂 and trust me if anyone specially women are reading this review , this is beautiful and to the men reading try this once and you can gift to your special woman! Afterall its a cheapie which sometime sells for under 1k , calm and fresh citrusy juicy orange in opening and floral which dries down into like new sheets in a hotel room type scent. Almost perfect for any weather and occasion. I bought it for my mom , will update you if she likes it as she doesn’t like most of the perfumes🥲

Finally pulled the trigger.

Finally mykonos prices are coming down bought this from a seller for 20$ , this is slow living from mykonos. Citrusy lemon zesty opening. To my nose this is a clone of neroli portofino , neroli in general can smell like soapy ! Smells like your clothes just came from laundry either you will like it or wont like it,if you like soapy clean laundry type smell with citrusy opening. Lasts longer than neroli portofino that hardly stays for like a hour, this one easily lasts for 5 hours with moderate projection for 1 hour. If you want a heavy beast mode projection perfume then this might not be the right DNA for you, but if you want a calm amd clean scent profile u will definitely like this one

First of all thanks to the people of this sub who shared the deal on naseem asmira, i was one of the few lucky ones who ordered this for 1250₹ !!

After wearing it for 2 days i am sharing my initial impressions. This is a very feminine leaning soft floral, fruity and musky fragrance. Slightly sweet cherry blended very well with white florals with added creaminess to it. Its a very close to skin type of fragrance perfect for girl like me who cant wear and handle heavy perfumes around me. Its a very clean girl type of a scent profile.

Performance could be slightly better on this but not bad i will say, lasts on clothes for around 6 hours with 40-50 mins of close to skin projection like 1-2 ft .

If you are looking for something like it, can try it once.

Straight away saying either you will love it or you will hate it straight away nothing in between, this is a clone of erba pura by xerjoff. Earlier prices were a lil inflated but now you can get under 1500₹ from various discounters. This is a tropical fruit bomb seems like a complete basket of fruits specially peach and yes it doesn't have that coconut note. That's the reason I like it very juicy tropical fruits in a bottle, very potent I didn't like it first when it arrived but now after 2 weeks it has settled and pretty smooth. Can smell a lil synthetic though. I made 5 of my friends try it and 3 liked it very much so I guess generally people will like it.

Versatility - Don't use it in summer afternoon except that you can wear anywhere you want. Though I will prefer only to wear it in AC conditions

Finally the 825₹ gift set from Ajmal which someone posted a deal about arrived I ordered 2 gift packs one for myself and one to gift someone! Myntra's delivery was very fast got it within a day!
Now coming to review of all 3 - 14 ml bottles one by one

1. Kuro - opens up with citruses and black pepper straight away a tadka of black pepper and bergamot. Opening might seem a lil harsh but after 2-3 mins settled down well. A good clone of sauvage, gets like 70% close to the OG if not more. Performance is okayish in this one not very potent but does the work for 3-4 hours !

2. Shiro- my favourite of all 3 ! Just love this will definitely buy a bottle, an aquatic woody type of scent profile. Bright and fresh with woody drydown very clean and very mass pleasing. Idk if it's a clone or what even if it is. Haven't smelled the OG

3. blu- this is very much close to my AAM Kaaf very close to it. Heavy white musk ,lavendar and florals lovely scent but doesn't perform beast mode like kaaf . So will choose kaaf over it !

Overall a very good deal for 825₹ considering I got to try 3 different Perfumes, satisfied with my purchase

Next what?

I'm sharing three of my favorite summer fragrances. These are the ones I can reach any time fresh fragrances. They are not very expensive and easy to find.

Azzaro Chrome

It has been one of my favorites and reminds me of the fragrances from 1990s and early 2000 - fresh and floral. I'm not getting much into notes detail. For me this easily lasts 6-8 hours when sprayed on clothes. This is a fragrance I use for office or casual outings. It is quite versatile and works well with chinos and jeans. Some people may not like this scent dna as they might feel it is dated. I suggest they can some of its more recently launched flankers or parfum version. But for me this is summer classic.

Zara Lisboa

A very clean and easy to use fragrance profile. The opening is fresh heavy Bergamot citrus smell. Like Azzaro, it also has florals but it is largely a linear fragrance. This also works well in both office and casual settings but I use it largely for casual outings. Many claim that Zara Lisboa reminds them of the previous versions of Acqua Di Gio; I can't verify this claim. This lasts around 4-6 hours.

Skinn Raw

This is one of the best Skinn fragrance. A citrus sweet dna that works pretty well for Indian summer but it is unlike the sweetness of Rasasi Hawas. This is a fragrance I use for gym. I have observed that during sweating, raw tends to project a lot more. One of the reviewers claim this is similar to Aqua Di Gio parfum version but this one is a lot more citrus forward. Longevity of skinn raw is around 3-5 hours.

Which is your favorite summer scent? What is your experience of using these fragrances?

Hi All,

I’ve been in the game for just over a year, and I’m looking to round out my collection a bit more,

Most recent addition was Gris Charnel, and I love it so far!

Wondering if you guys think I’m missing anything. Open to designer, niche, or Middle Eastern.

Not a big fan of very dark leather, oud, or mature smells but I can try to keep an open mind!

Any input is much appreciated!

I've been wearing Jean Lowe Fantasme recently, and overall I think it's a very good fragrance. It smells high quality, fresh, and versatile.

My main issue is the neroli. It's quite prominent and tends to dominate the scent profile, especially in the opening. I like neroli, but in this case it feels a bit too strong and overshadows some of the other notes.

Performance-wise, I'm getting around 6 hours of longevity, which is decent. I've put the bottle away for maceration and I'm hoping the scent blends better and the performance improves over time.

Sooooo this is my first Stronger With You. I decided to go with the Amber version because of a video review by a tiktoker. Oh man am I glad I did. Amber is one of my favorite notes and this is amber done to perfection. I literally give this a 10/10 it's so heavenly.
