I've bought Guerlain Florabloom Forte (it was on a kick off sale in my country online), and the main reason I put my hands on it was that for me it is almost identical to Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet, but it LASTS. Dior is literally off my skin after an hour or less, while with Guerlain....two sprays go a whole day. Even next morning I could sniff it on my wrist after I'd taken a shower the night before. So for this price point (and both are quite pricey) it is essential for me to get the value, which means a real, outstandingly performing perfume, not a light, body mist performance that sadly I have been experiencing with Dior lately. I'm verry happy with my purchase, Guerlain never disappoints.
Bonjour Noura, Miss Dior is the only one I consider buying. Enough with the flankers I definitely agree. Narcisso is nice but too much of a repeat for me since I own most of the rectangular bottles.
With a gift card I did purchase the Miss Dior Parfum! While nothing groundbreaking, my collection did lack a sweet fruity floral! I also have Creed’s Carmina which I find a bit spicy for high heat situations. But, there has been very few new releases that interest me of late! A new fragrance release has to be good as prices have notoriously been on the rise!
Thank you for your always honest opinion, Noura. I was VERY underwhelmed by Florabloom, and I share your opinion about Alien, Black Opium and Green Stravaganza . I have yet to test the others.
Hi Nora, I tested new Dior and I smell only patchouli and little bit something. Its very light on my skin. In the end I bought Lancome Rose extraordinaire instead.I am loving new Valentino and Alien.
Miss Dior the perfume , bought it and live it for a month later , I opened it and such a beautiful fragrance it is worth it to buy it, last all day long on me beautiful fragrance
from Guerlain's AA I do love Forte's Bosca Vanilla, Rosa Palissando and Oud Yuzu, I do have Nerolia Vetiver Harvest with Honey which is so beautiful...
Haha your lowkey frustration with Green Stravaganza was palpable! I agree, got a free sample and thought it was utterly meh. The notes sounded pleasant but totally agree all the flankers have been lacking oomph and personality, such a pointless line outside of the original. I thought the same with Hypersense too, pointless cash grab (more effort with the bottle than the perfume itself).
HI Noura! I agree: I'm not a fan of Alien although I love jasmine....I owned it time ago, but last year I sold it 'cause I don't like THIS jasmine on me, anyway this Hypersense is a "more polite" Alien...Alien Goddess, in my opinion, is not a flanker of Alien, but they used its name to link this new release to the original one, perhaps to continue its success...Same thought about Born in Roma range! The original one is the best for me, the yellow is so sinthetic, the coral and new green didn't impress me at all. Unfortunately, i don't like the new NR so much, if I am looking for a sweet musk, I definitely prefer Musc Noir Rose!
I still have the 2011 Miss Dior Cherie, which was my o ly perfume for ages. I tried this in store and felt they didn’t compare. This new one is much more amber and the original was a stunning chypre. But would like to test it again.
Black Opium Red must be the worst release of this year. they need to STOP! agree about others, except GG Blush, I liked that one :) Designer prices are OUTRAGEOUS, niche seems to be better value lately 🤔
I used to be a designer girl because of the price, but now everytime I debate if I should buy a niche fragrance I remind myself of the price tag of Chanel and Dior and just buy it. At least it's unique!
Most Dior perfumes are so disappointing to me - the only one I liked which I repurchased was the absolutely blooming one it jammy sweet. Black Opiums also just don't do anything for me, the neon one is the most disappointing as it its so weak in silage and longevity can't smell it after 30 minutes. Well done on the genuine reviews
Black opium such a nice fragrance worthy to buy it, I love it, the best flankers in my opinion

I love love love green stravaganza, its a fresh easy reach but I do agree that the price tag is too much for the scent.
I love listening to your reviews. You definitely don’t hold back the negative. Most reviewers on TH-cam rarely said anything negative. 😂
I appreciate that!

They need to bring back Alien Essence Absolue and then stop 😊

Hi Noura, have you ever get the chance to try Chloe lumineuse? ✨️ I would love to hear your thoughts on it
Hi! I am so with you! Don't like the Miss Dior parfum either, and totally agree with you about the Acqua Allegoria line. Don't get it either...
Oh no ! You broke your foot ? Hope you recover quickly ! Love your candour Noura ! 🇨🇦
Thank you so much 🙏❤️
So great to hear your thoughts on these ❤
Nieuw miss Dior is beautiful but I got it with 20% off .
You did great, now a days all the Houses must have a new Fragrances, we don't need more flanks
I agree. Strongly dislike Donna born in Roma
What do you think about JP Gaultier La Belle Paradise Garden? I can’t make my mind up about it. 🤔
It's still not available in Italy unfortunately.
