  1. Perla Vencis

    I was looking for In Me by Nathalie Lorson and nailed it; it’s an underrated gem. Very floral with woody notes, where magnolia shines over jasmine and ginger is noticeable. Ideal for personal use, nothing invasive. The bottle is gorgeous and the price is fair ($30 in the USA for 80 ml). If you like florals, buy it blind. Low sillage and lasts about 5-6 hours.

  2. Perla Vencis

    I was looking for In Me because it’s by Nathalie Lorson and I didn’t get it wrong. It’s another gem in the little-talked-about perfumery. Very floral with woody touches. The flowers are the protagonists; on my skin, I feel more magnolia combined with jasmine, and also ginger. If you want something for yourself and not invasive, this is ideal. The bottle is beautiful and the price is correct. In the USA, I paid $30 for 80 ml. In short, if you like florals,

    What a beautiful fragrance! I bought it and I’m already in love, just like with my other Basi scents. In In Me, it was love at first sight; the box has a note about Barcelona and Gaudí, and when I opened the box, a delicate crystal ball came out, moving me. The aroma starts spicy with pepper and ginger (it sneezed me, which always happens to me), I didn’t notice any citrus. Then comes the patchouli with the rose, no jasmine either; they blend with cashmere, sandalwood, and soft iris, leaving a creamy and clean, beautiful scent. In the end, it resembles Cabotine Gold, with a more subtle patchouli but the same essence. The sillage is grand in the first hour; my husband noticed it from 2 meters away, then it drops. Good longevity: I sprayed it once on my elbow 4 hours ago and I can still smell it when I move my arm. Update: at 15 hours with a touch, I can still PERCEIVE IT close to the skin.

    What a beauty! I fell in love the moment I opened it, just like with my other Basi scents. In Me was love at first sight; the box has a nod to Barcelona and Gaudí, and the crystal bottle moved me. It starts with a spicy kick of pepper and ginger (it sneezed me, but that’s my reaction). Then comes patchouli, rose, cashmere, sandalwood, and soft iris, all very creamy and clean. In the end, it reminds me of Cabotine Gold but with a more subtle patchouli. The sillage is powerful in the first hour (my husband noticed it from 2 meters away) and then becomes intimate. It lasts a long time: I sprayed it 4 hours ago and it still smells, and at 15 hours with a single touch, I can still detect it on my skin.

  5. A tribute to Barcelona with a nod to Dalí; it smells like a sparkling, bustling city. It’s not citrusy for me, but rather a soft spice, something unique that I adore. I use Cavalli or Shalimar for the night, but I was looking for something daily with a signature without being overwhelming. It arrived on sale and is perfect: sparkling due to the mix of pepper, grapefruit, and ginger. Great sillage (it’s an EDP), elegant, and with its own presence. I paid less than 15 euros for 80 ml and the faceted bottle is elegant. Exactly what I was looking for, thanks to the reviews.

    I’m obsessed with this scent; I fell in love with the bottle at El Indio pharmacy in Argentina and tried it without thinking. At first, it smells citrusy, spicy, and fruity; when it dries down, it’s floral and clean. I don’t detect the jasmine even though there are two types, and I love that because I’m not a fan. I see it as daytime, fresh but classy, with presence and feminine. It lasts about 5 hours projecting moderately and then close to the skin.

    I fell in love with the bottle at a pharmacy in Argentina and without hesitation, I tried it. It starts citrusy, spicy, and fruity; when it dries down, it’s floral and clean. The jasmine doesn’t dominate (I have two types and I’m not a fan, so I like that). I see it as daytime, fresh but with presence and feminine. It lasts about 5 hours projecting moderately and then close to the skin.
