The first part of my collections of twin fragrances liking to many of you. After receiving a positive response, I decided to continue on the heading.
This time will not only twins, but triplets. Also, a new selection of fall fragrances that advised subscribers.
For those who have "no clue": we are not talking about counterfeiting, but about the perfume with a similar sound. I understand that our sense of smell - something artful, intimate, one hears the fragrance for yourself differently. Still today, there are different flavors of perfume brands on the market that are similar sound. I hear it's not just me, but also perfume freaks, Fragrantiki regulars, and even professional perfume criticism.
luxury fragrance: M.MICALLEF YLANG IN GOLD
his twin: chopard Casmir
Price difference: Almost 6 times the volume of 100 ml.
Both flavor reminiscent of the sun warmed skin, which has been prepared with coconut oil and sunscreen with an expensive perfume.
Micallef delicate: fresh peach and coconut sounds unmistakably, their carefully envelops ylang in the peak of their bloom.
Your friends, colleagues or just passers-by, have fallen under the loop Ylang In GoldWill not be able to enjoy the memories of the beach resort. Such intimate "reminder" Micallef gives its owners. But peach, cinnamon, candy, sweet dried fruit - hear. And nothing in this delicious composition they will not choke.
Twin Chopard longer goes to the eastern theme, sweeter and more dense. Resin, cinnamon and vanilla soft aroma make a little more enveloping and warm than Micallef.
Initially, they differently disclosed: Chopard goes soft vanilla, then the bright floral with spicy cinnamon. After a couple of minutes, the composition of both fragrances is becoming very similar.
The difference in price between the two colossal. The reason for this expensive bottle Micallef: path of rhinestones in the middle, and inside the bottle - the dissolved gold, so before zilch shake the vial is recommended (so even instructed to him).
If you liked the fragrance Ylang In Gold, but the toad strangling to give 13,000 rubles for a bottle of 100 ml, then chopard Casmir - a great budget alternative.
popular flavor: Montale Dark Purple
his twin: Khalis Perfumes Zulfa
Price difference: More than 2 times
Slightly incorrect to compare water perfume of perfume, and of different volumes. But they do sound similar, and 12 ml of Arab perfume is much cheaper than 20 ml Montale. Since the concentration of perfume in the perfume substances above, they are more resistant and daisy chain.
This finding us shared reader Irina Paleeva. Thank you very much!
I compared and was surprised: Khalis Perfumes Zulfa really gives all the usual montalevsky musk and rose. Only initially revealed little fresher because of the citrus, sits very close to the skin, and scents.
Montale Dark Purple for me, a darker and heavier. Evening aroma. Pink musk sharp, in base a little powder, wear it on povsednevku very difficult. But despite the severity of flavor, in fact it is complementary ;-)
I was surprised by the fact that our eastern twin refers to a man's spirits! Well, I would not say: the rose is not powdery mimosa and quite a bit of spice. Here is a direct quite a bit to call it masculine.
Another confirmation of the fact that there are no boundaries between masculine and feminine scents. She blurred. Again, perfume - something intimate, or you like or not. The rest - again.
Bottle Khalis looks very expensive. Do not be ashamed to give people, who in this life is everything.
popular flavor: Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia
his twin: ANTONIO BANDERAS Queen of Seduction
Price difference: More than 3 times (for a volume of 50 ml)
Compare no perfume and eau de toilette. For me toilette version Acqua di Gioia very well balanced in terms of sweetness than the perfume water: no oppressive and bored sugar mint a bit shy (hiding behind citrus, even in hot weather), well-disclosed pear and lime. The most that summer version. The delicacy of flavor gives it a high cost.
His twin - Queen of Seduction. It smells of one to one, but less resistant. It can be used as... before going to the store or a one-hour walk pshiknuli and went.
In fact, both the flavor inexpensive: 3810 rubles against 1110 rubles for a bottle of 50 ml. There are still available tester Acqua di Gioia, which is almost 1,000 rubles. cheaper.
luxury fragrance: Givenchy Eaudemoiselle eau florale
his twin: Lanvin Eclat D`Arpege
Price difference: 3 or more times in a volume of 100 ml
Eaudemoiselle eau florale since last year taken off the market, leaving only the testers.
Floral scent, which is 6 years please fans of crystal and unobtrusive compositions of pear, rose, iris and musk easy finish.
More or less resistant to cold skin, hot - a disappointment. He is not so hooked on the market, like its twin Lanvin Eclat D`Arpege.
For those who have tested both the flavor, the twin known. Complimentary kompotik with peony and lilac, which, they say, do not dig. It has everything: beauty in discovering maiden pleasure and trail. He did not just like it a lot. Exception - pampered noses for them a flavor of boring.
popular flavor: Bvlgari Omnia Coral
his twin: Shakira Dance Diamonds
Price difference: More than 3 times
Advised a couple of subscribers will :-) Mila Novikova Thank you for your question, and Olga Akinitovoy - thank you so much for finding a twin. I am proud that I have read perfume Sherlock :-)
In Bvlgari quite an interesting pyramid: goji berries in the top notes, hibiscus, pomegranate and Wolfberry in the notes of the heart and cedar from Virginia in the database.
Honestly, I have dried goji berries, but I can not remember their scent. Accordingly, the hearing in the fragrance, too. But the smell of pomegranate - remember :-) And Omnia Coral, he heard the first few seconds after a puff, and do not leave during the day.
What a cool fruity floral fragrance. This is not some "yum-yum kompotik" and brilliant composition of pine (so I heard cedar), frozen lilies and dominant grenade. Bvlgari I did not like me at the time somehow seemed weak and boring aquatic options for sickly price. Well, what other options did not consider him. Now Baby brand :-)
Shakira vaguely similar to Omnia sour pomegranate and its political correctness, woody notes do not aroma bright.
Marmalade on cold skin, no himoznoy cheapness in the loop no. Dominated by pepper and violet. And the sum of the bottle funny, 800 rubles and kopecks. zatestit can safely :-)
What is most interesting: the olfactory pyramid of both fragrances in general are different, the similarity there.
popular flavor: Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium
his twin: Ajmal Vanille Celeste
Price difference: Almost 3 times (even more)
Black Opium needs no introduction. Someone said it was the worst thing that has happened in modern perfumery. Other crazy about dense coffee aroma, vanilla liqueur, which is not simply stick to its owner, and it becomes a second skin.
Rich, secular and adult flavor. If he has a lot of fans and haters - it means a composition out masterpiece. Such a perfume should awaken and categorical.
Opium is this hard for me. his twin Ajmal Vanille Celeste - the same coffee and vanilla noose even tighter Opium. In winter it will be very hot. I'd even called Ajmal Celeste more "hardcore" version YSL Black Opium in terms of density and brightness of the sound.
And now we go to the triplets.
luxury fragrance: Byredo Velvet Haze
his brothers: Narciso Rodriguez for Her and Sarah Jessica Parker Lovely
Price difference: Almost 2-fold between Byredo and Rodriguez; more than 2 times between Rodriguez and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Did you know that for the perfume has its own "Oscar Award"? It called The Fragrance Foundation Awards. The event is going to the Display elite is not less than its counterpart in the film industry.
So. Last year Byredo Velvet Haze at The Fragrance Foundation Awards was recognized as one of the best flavors of the luxury segment.
The composition is multifaceted, each in itself hears it differently. But always sweet coconut and tart notes of patchouli musk to make themselves known to each nose.
It is often compared with Rodriguez. They have a similar sound to Musk, Rodriguez is not only in the coconut meat and dairy fat. More "clean" in the sound and cheaper.
There is another interesting aroma - Lovely Sarah Jessica Parker. Sarah Jessica Parker and Rodriguez - are old friends. Both bought musk oil from the same vender :-)
Only in Rodriguez was more intense flavor than Sarah. All triplets - sex with a similar composition of musk, which allow the natural smell of a clean body to merge with flavor.
luxury fragrance: Tom Ford Black Orchid
his brothers: Tiziana Terenzi Maremma and Korloff Paris Silver Wood
Price difference: Almost the same price range, but Tom Ford is more expensive than others.
These triplets are very similar at the beginning of opening (cocoa and dark chocolate), then each of them by itself.
Black Orchid in its disclosure insidious. If you went down to the cellar to get a bottle of good wine, and there - a mess: Cut orchids spilled cologne, which slowly begins to dissolve the chocolate. This is an extremely complex and controversial flavor. Unusual balsamic trail, some kind of earthiness. Difficult to convey. Black Orchid I associate with aunts and uncles in expensive suits and dresses, who play in the underground casino, where the entire interior is made of expensive mahogany.
Tiziana Terenzi Maremma - niche fragrance, no less complicated Black Orchid. Like it is not everything, but stupid is not to recognize the high cost of the gourmet flavor. The same wine cellar, only with notes of honey and the persimmons. Much more positive your brother.
Korloff Paris Silver Wood - younger brother. Not so serious, a little easier to conduct. Many delicious pieces of wood and nutmeg.
