The perfume is original, I've tested everything!
This fragrance is very similar to Parfums de Marly Habdan, but it is three times cheaper.
Warm, softly sweet aroma without excessive stickiness, perfect for winter. I can distinctly smell the scents of plum and honey, which reminded me a lot of the old version of "Feminite du Bois" by Shiseido before they unfortunately changed the formula, bottle, and brand to Serge Lutens. Only without the slight bitterness. I didn't notice any coffee or spice notes at all, instead it had a very short-lived scent closer to cocoa with milk. In a nutshell, it is a very cozy and intimate "gourmand" fragrance. The only downside for me personally is that it sits very close to the skin, with no trail.
Yes, yes, yes!!!! I haven't been so excited about a fragrance in a long time! This is how I perceive it: definitely warm, soft, not alcoholic cognac. I can smell the wood in it, and definitely confidently detect freshly squeezed honey and warm, sweet dried fruits. Perhaps prunes are predominant, but I can't be sure. Those who are looking for a noble, warm sweetness for winter, this is it! Maybe it will also work in the summer. But for now, it's an intimate scent for me, for an evening "dialogue" by the fireplace, it instills confidence and mischievousness in me. It's very intimate. My man liked it on me. He found it sweet in sensation and was surprised that it's unisex... Although I'm curious to try this perfume on him. And the only downside to this exquisite barrel of honey, in my opinion, is that it's not super long-lasting and I can't detect a trail. Perhaps my skin consumes perfumes because neither Micallef nor Viktor Rolf last long on me, only about 5-6 hours. Meanwhile, my super cool Arabian perfumes, Hadharah Sued, in oil form last for over a day!
