Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
A beautiful fragrance, vanilla, aromatic, with that powdery touch that is so captivating. The ingredients feel top-notch. I’ve already tried two perfumes from this house, and honestly, the performance is outstanding.
Beautiful fragrance, spicy, aromatic, and with that powdery touch that’s absolutely captivating. You can tell the ingredients are top-notch quality. I’ve already tried two perfumes from this house, and honestly, the performance is outstanding.
Of course, the scent evolves from the moment you apply it until it settles on your skin. I don’t usually look for this type of perfume, but with the cold weather, it’s finally its time to shine. In the middle of its evolution, it smells a bit like Coco Mademoiselle. I’m not crazy about the opening notes, but my favorite part is the dry-down—it’s very powdery and woody.
What a rich scent, this perfume definitely evolves. It starts off citrusy and clean with a hint of sweetness, then becomes more powdery, and finally dries down to a sweet, woody finish. It smells almost identical to Mon Guerlain, which is undoubtedly a feminine aromatic fragrance.
What a rich scent; this perfume definitely evolves. At first, it smells citrusy, clean, yet with a hint of sweetness, then it becomes more powdery, and finally dries down to a sweet, woody finish. It smells almost identical to Mon Guerlain, which is undoubtedly a feminine aromatic.
I tried it on the tester today; it feels a bit fussy, but the sandalwood really stands out. I knew it was similar to a perfume I wanted but couldn’t remember the name—Mon Guerlain. I’ve never actually tried that one, but the ingredients feel high quality. Even though the sandalwood isn’t overpowering, I barely detect the florals on my skin. I’ll come back later to update on the longevity and the rest of the dry-down.
A feminine unisex perfume that smells very similar to Mon Guerlain EDT. However, in this HC2, I detect much more benjuí than in the original, making it even more unisex. Perfumería handles dupes at a very affordable price and uses ingredients of very high quality; when compared to Frakché or other versions, Perfumería’s feels much better blended and less acidic. Given the price, customization, and quality, I think buying one of their perfumes—whether custom or from the house—is a true investment.
I love oriental scents, so this one is a hit for me. It’s soft and sweet. You can definitely detect sandalwood, resins, and floral touches. I wear it to sleep and it relaxes me quite a bit, probably because of the lavender, which is one of my favorite notes. I recommend it; it’s very accessible, comes in 120ml, and besides, we’re supporting Mexican perfumers since it’s a creation by Perfumería.
