Kriska by Natura

I loved this perfume! It’s delicious! I’ll clarify that I’m one of those women who loves gourmand, sweet, vanilla perfumes that smell like desserts, yet I find this perfume richer on my skin than Krisca Shock, which I also like a lot, but I prefer the classic Krisca. The classic Krisca bothers me a bit at first, I have to admit, I feel it quite strong with a fruity gum-like scent that I don’t really like, I don’t know why, but as time passes and it dries down a bit, maybe stuck in my skin, it becomes sweet, delicate, and acquires exquisite floral nuances; I’m fascinated! It keeps that sweetness always, from start to finish, but it’s no longer an annoying, overwhelming sweet; it’s a delicate sweet, not gourmand, nothing vulgar, quite the opposite, I feel it’s elegant and sophisticated. That’s why I like it more than Krisca Shock, because in Shock I don’t find much novelty or change in the fragrance, honestly. I think it comes out the same, dries the same, and disappears the same, pure caramel, pure sweet, with very little evolution. I’m not saying I don’t like it or that it’s not rich to my nose because it is, but I feel I’ve used similar fragrances a thousand times, even in body splashes. However, I feel the classic Krisca has another type of evolution; I didn’t smell many similar fragrances and feel it has another complexity in its notes. The longevity on my skin is excellent; it lasts a long time, but I consider it’s one of those fragrances you shouldn’t over-spray; if you want to maintain a delicate, feminine scent on skin that doesn’t cause discomfort. Without a doubt, I would buy the classic Krisca again; I feel it’s a very versatile scent. Honestly, I wouldn’t wear it on hot days, but in cooler seasons I feel it goes perfectly for any occasion that isn’t a very formal event, but is suitable for a work day, a dinner, an afternoon date, or a cool spring or summer night, always applying moderately. I love it, I feel it’s rich on my skin!

Finally got my hands on it. I already knew it from samples, but spraying it straight from the bottle is a whole different story. I paid it much more attention than I did with the sample. It feels like the best of the Krisca line. Why? It’s not as sweet, cloying, or exhausting as Drama or Libertad. It screams late 80s/early 90s style. Lots of notes, several flowers, elegant, feminine, with a touch of dark mystery. I don’t wear it in summer; it’s for cooler, daytime hours. It has moderate sillage and you can tell. More than the vanilla and patchouli (which I’m glad are subtle), the cardamom and flowers really stand out. That combination is exquisite and irresistible to me. It stands out well without reaching the potency of Kenzo Jungle. It’s subtle and delicate. Out of all the flowers—which are my favorite—none is the queen; there’s a little bit of each to give that mysterious vibe. It reminds me a bit of classic Poison, but without the honey. They aren’t similar, but they follow the same line. The wood in the classic Krisca is very subtle, and I don’t detect any fruit notes. It’s worth having; it’s a classic for a reason and has been on the market for so long. Natura isn’t even trying to discontinue it 😀👍

I loved it! I’m one of those who adores sweet and vanilla perfumes, and although I like Shock, I prefer the Classic. At first, the opening bothers me a bit, strong and fruity bubblegum-like, but once it dries on the skin it becomes sweet, delicate, and floral; I’m fascinated. The sweetness lasts all the time, but without being overwhelming, elegant and sophisticated. That’s why I prefer it to Shock, which smells the same from start to finish, no evolution, just caramel. The Classic has another layer of complexity and evolution. Longevity is excellent, it lasts forever, but you have to moderate the sprays to avoid overdoing it. Without a doubt, I’d buy it again; it’s versatile. I wouldn’t wear it in the heat, but in cooler times it’s perfect for work, dinner, a date, or a spring night.

The first time I tried this perfume was with a 15ml sample that came with other Natura products, and when I applied it, I smelled purple corn beer (a Peruvian drink), so I decided to buy it, but when I had the little bottle, I didn’t smell that scent anymore, which discouraged me a bit. I consider it a sweet scent, like the aroma of a peach area very close to the seed, rough like when you bite an unripe peach, but tasty. Its longevity is quite high; you spray a little and it smells almost all day. It’s not a bad scent, but since it’s intense, you should actually like it to apply it, because the scent won’t go away easily.

It’s not listed, but I sense a resemblance to Versace’s Red Jeans. They share notes, but this one is less powdery and slightly sweeter without being cloying. As they say, it has a 90s vibe. My 67-year-old mom loved it, but a younger woman can wear it without issues. At first, it’s a floral bomb that’s overwhelming (especially for me, who leans more towards citrus), but it settles down as it dries. It lasted about 6 hours, which is pretty good for an EDT. It’s about to be discontinued, so if you like it, better get it now.

How exhausting it is with that habit of categorizing perfumes by age, for God’s sake!! This is an EDT floral, elegant, intense, good performance, and sweet although not from the gourmand line. Is it on the same side as Tresor? Yes. It even has a touch of 90s vintage fragrance. Although it comes out very strident, the dry down is delicious and subtle. For those who enjoy sweetness without smelling like a cupcake, it’s a good option.

How ridiculous to categorize perfumes by age! It’s an elegant, intense floral with great longevity and a sweet, though not gourmand, scent. Is it on the Tresor side? Yes, it even has a vintage 90s touch. At first, it’s loud, but once it dries down, it’s delicious and subtle. For those who want sweetness without smelling like cake, it’s a great option.

Very usable for the first cold days of autumn or early spring. It carries a very 90s DNA. Powdery/soapy (the clove gives that vibe). Great for everyday wear. It lasts 8 hours on skin and much longer on clothes. If you want to buy blind, go ahead, because if you don’t like it, maybe a slightly older family member will.

Sweet floral perfume that lasts all day. It features notes of black raspberry, plum, and vanilla. Not a vintage scent, perfect for daily wear and very feminine. I’d say it’s great for women over 20, probably not for teens. Leaves a light to moderate trail and lasts about 5 hours. Rating: 8/10.

I gave it several chances but couldn’t make it work… smells like an old lady and cheap talcum powder, gives me a headache. I’ll give it away or leave it in the bathroom, and I don’t think I could even stand it there. It’s just an incredibly uncomfortable scent.

I simply couldn’t stand it. I bought it for the sweet notes, but upon trying it, it felt super vintage and reminded me of the hair removal cream I used to use (Touch Me), which made me gag. I ended up gifting it to my sister so she could enjoy it.

I first smelled it a month ago and thought it was the perfume I used to wear as a girl, but I couldn’t remember which one. Today I realized it smells like Paco Rabanne’s Ultraviolet, the one I wore for years that’s now impossible to find.

A very good perfume in terms of quality-price ratio; it reminds me a lot of Viva La Juicy at the start, recommended for daily use.

It’s incredible how similar it is to Tresor. I don’t like either of them, I think it’s because of the peach note.

Great value for money. The opening reminds me a lot of Viva La Juicy, ideal for daily wear.
