    As the name suggests, Loukhoum is that Turkish delight, or as Cnidaria put it, Keiko Mecheri’s take on it. I have a decant and have tried it a couple of times; to me, it doesn’t smell like generic Turkish delight, but specifically like ‘baklava’: that phyllo dough loaded with lots of honey, pistachios, and/or walnuts. It’s sweet, but not cloying as I expected. I clearly detect a lot of honey, I think white honey, less potent than others I’ve tried, with a floral touch of violets, talc, and subtle but present roses. Of course, there’s that soft, sweet nutty scent (pistachios, almonds). The combination is divine, with excellent longevity and sillage; 2 or 3 sprays are more than enough.

    It’s Keiko Mecheri’s version of that Turkish delight. After checking out Traversee du Bosphore, I saw that several houses have their own recipe, but Keiko has Loukhoum and two others; I’ve only tried this one. It’s a bomb of honey, roses, almonds, and a ton of powder. It’s super sweet, the honey is strong, and if your skin doesn’t accept it, it can smell animalic—I get that, but I don’t dislike it. I love it, I have a splash, and it lasts forever because a little goes a long way; the longevity is huge and the sillage is good. It’s not easy on the general palate, it’s heavy, could be cloying, and very powdery; once someone said it smelled like an old lady’s perfume, but well, with anyone who only uses Axe, I have nothing to discuss xD, although I understand their point, it has a vintage touch, like from another era, how beautiful!:3

    The Turkish version of Keiko Mecheri’s take on that legendary dessert. After checking out Traversee du Bosphore, I saw that several houses have their own version of this sweet, and Keiko has Loukhoum with two flankers; I’ve only tried this one. It’s a bomb of honey, roses, almonds, and a ton of powder. Super sweet, the honey is very strong, and if your skin doesn’t accept it, it can smell animalic—I get that, but I don’t dislike it. I love it, I have a small splash, and it lasts forever because I only need to apply a little; the longevity is huge and the sillage is good. It’s not easy on the general palate, it’s very heavy and could result in being cloying, plus powdery; once someone said it smelled like an old lady’s perfume, but well, with anyone who only uses Axe, I have nothing to discuss xD, but I understand why they said it, it has a vintage touch like it’s from another era, oh how beautiful it is! :3
