Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It doesn’t change your life, but it’s almost unbeatable. It outshines most designers in this line and even some niche scents. Super clean scent, like expensive hotel soap. Compared to Le Male (one of my favorites), it’s less sweet and cleaner, perfect for hot summer days. Decent price, highly recommended brand. Extremely high quality, great packaging, and made in Spain. Perfect for daily wear if you work indoors in the heat. Now it’s my daily driver.
I’m not exaggerating, but its price/performance/quality would make many niche brands blush, let alone designer ones. Very similar olfactory profile to Pegasus, with performance that doesn’t envy it. Plus, made in Spain. This EDT line would be the ‘designer’ version of Botanicae. More masculine profile, very pleasant all year round, though spring and autumn are ideal. Highly recommended for me. Au revoir!
To me, this is purely a filler product. Botanicae has its two or three quality scents like Matina or Mogador, and then fillers like this one that are synthetic and dispensable. Meh.
I bought it blindly based on the hype from reviewers, and I must say I’m happy, although I expected more, especially regarding the scent. It’s good and pleasant, but personally, I’m not passionate about it. And although no one has mentioned it, it smells a lot like Dj Mariio’s fragrance, or rather, Jean Paul Gaultier’s Scandal. If you like those two, you’ll definitely hit the mark. For me, it’s unisex, without gender or age limits; I see it on a grandmother as well as on a teenager. It’s curious, but that’s how it comes across. The performance is decent; it’s not a dud, but it’s not outstanding either. It’s fine for the price; if it were more expensive, I wouldn’t recommend it. Don’t let my somewhat polarizing review scare anyone; it’s a good fragrance for the price. 7/10 overall.
I bought it blindly due to hype from reviewers and I must say I’m happy, but I expected more, especially regarding the scent. It’s good and pleasant, but it doesn’t particularly excite me. And although no one mentioned it, it smells very similar to Dj Mariio or Jean Paul Gaultier’s Scandal. If you like those two, you’ll definitely hit the mark. For me, it’s unisex, genderless and ageless; I can see it on a grandmother or a teenager, which is curious but that’s how it comes across. Performance is decent, not bad but not outstanding; it’s good for the price, but I wouldn’t recommend it if it were more expensive. Don’t be scared off by my polarizing review; it’s a good fragrance for the price. 7/10 overall.
An amazing perfume that promises an Atlantic vibe, though on my skin it feels sweeter and fruitier, perhaps due to those white flowers and sandalwood floating in the background. It’s aromatic, woody, with lots of lavender and a very pleasant floral touch. It’s unisex, but with a bold masculine edge. The longevity, projection, and sillage are top-notch. It’s a total hit, although the description can be misleading: it’s absolutely not aquatic or marine. As always, test it before buying.
I’m here to confirm what @OdiseoBcn already said. After reading reviews describing it as aquatic, blue, and perfect for summer, I found something totally different upon trying it. In fact, its similarities are Le Male and Pegasus. Although it does fit into that family (lavender, vanilla, white flowers, sandalwood…), it’s a lighter and more versatile version for the weather. I feel compelled to disagree with so many because, in summer, I prefer fresh scents, though it doesn’t suit me terribly well. Apart from that, it’s a very good perfume. Excellent value for money and magnificent performance (especially being an EDT), which lasts through the workday. Highly recommended if you like this style.
Wonderful perfume proposing an Atlantic surfer inspiration, but I find it sweeter and fruitier, perhaps due to white flowers and sandalwood, notes present but in the distance. Aromatic, woody, with lavender very present, a floral touch, pleasant and boldly unisex. Very good longevity, projection, and sillage. A fragrance success, but its description can be misleading. It’s nothing aquatic or marine. Try before you buy, as always.
Just wanted to comment on something similar to what @OdiseoBcn pointed out. After reading reviews describing an aquatic, blue, perfect summer fragrance, I found something completely different upon trying it. In fact, its comparisons are Le Male and Pegasus. It does belong to that family (lavender, vanilla, white flowers, sandalwood…), but it’s a lighter, more versatile version for the climate. That said, and I feel the need to differ, I prefer fresher scents in summer, though it wouldn’t clash if used that way. Aside from that, it seems like a very good perfume. Excellent quality-price ratio, and in my case, magnificent performance (especially being an EDT) that lasts the entire workday. Highly recommended if you enjoy this type of fragrance.
I loved that it lasts 6 hours on the skin. It definitely reminds me of Le Male, but it’s fresher, perfect for summer, and not as heavy. Best of all: it’s incredibly cheap.
Very happy with its 6 hours of longevity on my skin. It reminds me of Le Male, but fresher, summery, and less suffocating. Extremely cheap.
Since it’s Made in Spain, I let it macerate from October until this February 2023, and now it smells stronger and better. Given that the batch at the time of purchase was almost finished bottling. In principle, I review that it’s more suitable for male use, very versatile, entering the world of sweet fragrances, with nods to Le Male and Pegasus. Its essential oils, given the price, are of excellent quality and evoke very good vibes. For me, it’s not discovering a new planet, but quality, price, and performance are unbeatable, and with that, the brand Spain authenticates authenticity and good craftsmanship. I highly recommend getting to know the BOTANICAE world. Recently, through a friend, I tried PEGASUS again; the resemblance with this ONDA is incredible.
This is a marvel, a beast mode for summer that I don’t understand why no one talks about. Longevity out of control and an odor of impressive quality.
