  With nard being such a classic and tricky note, they’ve given it a distinct treatment here. It smells soft, sweet, and natural—nothing green or acidic. At first it feels fresh, but it evolves quickly into a warm, sweet spice blend thanks to the clove and cinnamon, paired with the creaminess of ylang-ylang. The base is woody with a bitter-sweet touch from oakmoss that keeps it from getting too cloying. It’s almost a buttery nard, bordering on gourmand, but less excessive than Truth or Dare and far more versatile without staying stuck in sweet territory. I’m loving it so much! It’s modern—not as classic as Carolina Herrera or Fracas, nor as delicate a white flower as Gucci; it’s denser, more consistent, and has real character. Youthful, feminine, fun, and contemporary, but you have to take it seriously. It’s easy to wear for anyone who hates heavy soliflores without losing elegance. Works for almost any season, fresh at the start and warm at the base. Lasts over 10 hours with a rich, deep sillage. The bottle is awesome—heavy, with a silver cap and colorful gemstones, very hippie and messy. I agree it has the air of Kenzo’s Jungle L’Elephant, swapping tangerine for nard, but here the spices are juicier and sweeter, and the moss gives it that bitterness Kenzo lacks. To me, they’re two sides of the same coin, and I’m keeping both. Even though it was hard to find, it’s finally my nard fragrance. Please don’t reformulate it! He who follows, finds. Happy with life!

  With neroli being such a classic and tricky note, they’ve given it a totally different treatment. It smells soft, sweet, and natural—nothing green or acidic. At first, it feels fresh, but it evolves quickly with a sweet, warm spice kick from clove and cinnamon, blended with the creaminess of ylang-ylang. The dry down is woody with a bitter-sweet touch from oakmoss that keeps it from getting too cloying. It’s almost a buttery neroli, bordering on gourmand, but way less excessive than Truth or Dare and much more versatile without getting stuck in just ‘sweet.’ I’m loving it so much! It’s modern, not as classic as Carolina Herrera or Fracas, nor a delicate white flower like Gucci; it’s denser, more consistent, and has real character.

To me, they’re two sides of the same coin, and I’m keeping both. Even though it was hard to find, it’s finally my neroli fragrance. Please don’t reformulate it! If you keep looking, you’ll find it. I’m living my best life!

  Reminiscence White Tubereuse has been a challenge because flowers and tuberose are usually my nightmare. But with this one, the perfume won and completely conquered me. Thanks to the swap with Remy (thanks again!), every test revealed new facets that fascinated me. It starts with a neroli that’s sometimes intense, other times light, but always delicious and addictive. Then come spicy notes—cinnamon and cloves—mixed with the freshness of moss, making it warm yet easy to wear. I agree it reminds me of Kenzo Jungle L’Elephant, but this is fresher, lighter, and more wearable; Kenzo feels more like a winter scent to me, while this Reminiscence one I can easily wear in summer. It wasn’t love at first sight, but a love that grew into something real and hard to forget. I love the bottle; it reminds me of summer jewelry sandals with turquoise and opals on a tan foot. Ready to head out from the beach to drinks at the Jaimas in Caños de Meca. I love it! I want it!

  White Tubereuse is a well-kept secret these days, and those who’ve tried it know it leaves them speechless. Thanks to Remy, I got to know it up close and understand why it’s called perfect. It uses neroli in a modern, soft way, and even though I’m usually picky about that note, it won me over from start to finish. The opening is aquatic, light, and sublime, with a hint of pepper that adds brightness. After 20 minutes, the heart emerges: absolute creaminess with a gorgeous neroli, nothing heavy. All of that’s framed by woods that give it body without losing its tender floral side. It’s versatile for anyone looking for something sweet and floral at the same time. The key is delicacy, innocence, and youth. It’s a great bet today; it stands out without blending into the trend. The longevity is excellent, and the trail is powerful but not arrogant.

  I’m totally blown away. It smells like Truth or Dare and Fracas, but leans more toward the latter. Out of the three, Truth or Dare is the one that truly won me over and sticks with me; this one feels a bit heavy for everyday wear. On the other hand, my beloved Truth or Dare never gets old—it’s much easier to live with. It’s super elegant and lasts hours with just a couple of sprays. That was my first impression. I’ll keep testing to see what else it can do.
