Thanks to all the reviews, I decided to try a tester, and in just two days, I used up the 2ml. It was such a refreshing experience from head to toe. I immediately ordered a bottle and now eagerly await its arrival. I wasn't familiar with this brand before, but the packaging of the tester is incredibly beautiful. It's satisfying to know that it's produced in Odessa and not just a repackaged unknown Chinese product.
I tried a sample and can only sense sweet strawberry. Personally, I feel it lacks a bit of freshness and a more pronounced blackcurrant note. I would say it's more of a child's perfume, but it can be used to diversify one's collection.
Tart currant! Very naturally pronounced, not artificial! Long-lasting.
This fragrance is a unique gem. It is absolutely unlike anything else. Testing it is a must, as it reveals its true colors on different skin types. When I wear it, I feel the natural scent of freshly crushed berries, without any additives. It is fresh, not like a fruit compote or jam, but rather like a berry straight from the bush. The perfume is long-lasting with a moderate sillage. It stays on clothes for a decent amount of time, and there, you can also sense the aroma of blackcurrant leaves and a hint of slightly bitter herbs. I don't detect any cardamom or cinnamon. It pairs flawlessly with Herba Fresca, as if when you were a child, hiding in the garden behind a blackcurrant bush and fully immersing yourself in this summery fragrance. The price is a bit steep for an unknown brand.
My love for this product has been going strong for three years now. I absolutely adore it! It's blackcurrant in its own juice, without any added sugar or excessive sweetness.
The first test was disappointing - in a warm room, there was an explosion of spices led by cardamom. The claimed blackcurrant was completely inaudible. But in the cold air, a note of blackcurrant leaf appeared, which was the whole point of it all. Just 5 minutes later - and cardamom was back in the mix. Overall, the fragrance is interesting, a blend of herbs and spices with some jam-like undertones. But, excuse me, when the price tag is at the level of global luxury, and yet there is no story or presentable bottle (the bottle itself is a complete disgrace from the 90s), it's simply indecent.
Amazing blackcurrant. I have a tester, and now I will definitely opt for a bottle.
After two months of purchase, I noticed that the sprayer was leaking and the perfume was evaporating right before my eyes! It turns out that the sprayer unscrews itself spontaneously! All my perfumes are kept in a specially designated dark place, I don't shake the bottles or carry them in my bags. Even the scent itself has changed, with clearly damaged top notes and a hint of "cat litter." Despite my respect for the manufacturer, something needs to be done about these bottles!
Ever since I tried this fragrance in a sample, I couldn't stop dreaming about the full-size version. And finally, I bought it when there was a discount. It's wonderful, warm, and truly blackcurrant. The scent reminds me of a warm summer and a kingdom of berries. I really love sweet blackcurrant in fragrances, and my all-time favorite used to be Amethyst by Lalique. But now, my collection has been enriched with another blackcurrant gem. The delivery, as always, was excellent. Thank you, Makeup :)
There were no expectations for the Ukrainian niche, I tried it randomly. The aroma turned out to be amazing, I don't even know how to describe it. It's so ripe, so herbal. It's so touching that it makes you want to cry. Love at first sniff.
I was swayed by numerous reviews claiming that this perfume smells like natural black currant. However, on my skin, I detect a chemical scent of strawberries or old-fashioned strawberry soap, which is later joined by notes of red currant. But even in the smell of red currant, there is no naturalness. It is more like a bubblegum-candy fragrance. The scent is very long-lasting and diffusive, but considering the aforementioned, it is more of a drawback than a plus. Perhaps it is due to the peculiarities of my skin, and my opinion is subjective. Now, onto the objective aspects. The bottle has a shabby appearance, made of the cheapest glass, with a crudely crafted curved tube. Strange tiny flakes floating in the perfume completed the picture of severe disappointment and clashed with the price of the fragrance. The only positive aspect I can evaluate is the store's service. Everything was clear and timely. Thank you for the small gift.
I blindly ordered this product based on reviews. I really wanted a fresh, moderately sweet scent with a hint of acidity for the summer. For some reason, this is exactly how I imagined this fragrance. At first glance, the bottle is very simple and, in my opinion, not the most visually appealing. But that's not the most important thing. After spraying and waiting a couple of minutes, I was a bit scared, yes, it is undoubtedly blackcurrant. Leaves and berries together, crushed in my hands. It's like you're wearing a blackcurrant dress (like Lady Gaga in a meat dress). But! There is a note that bothers me. I apologize for the comparison, but it's like when you pick a ripe, fragrant raspberry in your childhood, and there's a stink bug sitting on it. And that's just sad. Then I realized what it was, by going to the kitchen and smelling the cardamom from the packet. That's exactly what it smells like to me. Fortunately, after about 15 minutes, the smell of cardamom disappears and there you have the best scent in the world. It's amazing, long-lasting, delicious, and beloved. A cool pie with berries and cinnamon. Summer. Happiness. Thank you, Makeup, for the one-day delivery.
Deep natural black currant, specifically black. I agree with the reviews below: it has a long-lasting, beautiful, and noble scent. I can vividly detect the grassy notes, the tanginess of the berries, and the authentic black currant bushes. I really enjoyed the fragrance.
