I disagree with the comments about the hospital and so on, and also with the fact that it is masculine.
Perhaps you haven't grown up to appreciate this fragrance, the department with the smell of chewing gum somewhere further away.
Do you want to know how it smells like luxury, success, power, and sex? Then go ahead and get this perfume.
I received this fragrance as a gift. For me, it truly resembles a dental office, hospital, iodine. In my opinion, it is not at all suitable for women.
I cannot be inspired by it; it's some kind of orgasm! Usually, I am indifferent towards all perfumes, but this one... in short, it has awakened my sense of smell! Ladies, this is like having sex in Cuba!
I generally don't understand women's reviews, as it is labeled as unisex. However, this scent is not feminine in my opinion. In my understanding, it is only meant for women in the sense of inhaling it from a loved one. It is a scent for a successful, confident man with hints of pepper, cedar, sandalwood, and luxury cars. This scent is not for boys, but for men who have already achieved something. It has a very long-lasting sillage, staying on clothes for 4 days. I enter an elevator and already know that my man was here because of the scent. After 2 years, I have only used a third of the bottle, so it is great value for the price. It is niche and you will never mistake it for another. However, I want to emphasize once again that I do not see it as suitable for women.
Well, I have tested the popular Ganymede fragrance and after taking two days to gather my thoughts and impressions, my conclusion is that this is definitely not a classic feminine perfume. The scent is very complex and not suitable for young and light-hearted girls. It won't appeal to girls under 30, those who are cheerful and like Barbie dolls... it will be a mismatch. The fragrance is unisex, and that says a lot. It is the first scent that I can describe as lively, flexible, and ever-changing, with some artificial but intellectual qualities. It is a mysterious fragrance that plays a game of "guess what you will smell like in a minute" with you. Yes, it is definitely a perfume compilation. Shamelessly using quotes from the most popular fragrances of recent years. However, they are so masterfully intertwined into something unique that you realize - you have never heard anything like it before))) or maybe you have, but not like this...
P.S. Despite Ganymede being a pure unisex fragrance, in my opinion, it will appear more sensual, prestigious, and winning on men. This is a fragrance of the future, where the differences between yin and yang, man and woman... good and evil are blurred.
The ozone mineral detergent is amazing and pure! It's the best thing ever, as long as you bought the original one. If you're reading reviews about it being bad, congratulations, you probably bought a fake one because this scent is very popular now and there are many fakes out there. The scent itself is intriguing and magically attractive. It truly feels like a guest from the future...
I received this as a gift and decided to pass it on to a friend who is a talented plastic surgeon. It has a distinct scent reminiscent of iodine, bandages, and hospitals.
Diamonds smell like cold platinum. Ganymede smells like that ❤️
I didn't buy it here, but it smells like a dental office.
This fragrance is quite unconventional. It has an interesting pyramid structure, which I find intriguing. It lasts for a good 8 hours, which I am very satisfied with.
This fragrance is absolutely luxurious, it is simply incredible!
How do you women wear it? It's just a waste of money 🤯 I simply can't stand it, it just smells like burnt rubber and iodine as if I were in a hospital.
I bought a 30ml bottle here after familiarizing myself with a similar perfume at a perfume counter. I assumed that I would be able to get an approximate idea of what it was like and form an impression. If I hadn't regretted spending the money and had bought the original sample, I would have ordered 100ml right away. The scent is mysterious, and there may be some resemblance to the smell of iodine, but believe me, it doesn't repel you at all, and it's so fleeting that you don't have time to analyze it. I have come to the conclusion that associations with leather boots and burnt rubber with Višnevskij ointment come from consumers of fragrances from plastic 5-liter cans with a certain number. It is very long-lasting, multifaceted, sometimes disappearing, sometimes appearing, it captivates and attracts, and sounds expensive. If you are afraid of medicine, don't worry, it won't hurt. I recognize it on people as both the original and a crude replica.
I did not buy it here. I initially purchased a 5ml bottle to try it out. I fell in love with it from the first spray. Now I am using the full-sized bottle. I will definitely buy it again. It is an extraordinary scent.
The fragrance is nice. I tried a fake version for the first time... sprayed it and could clearly smell iodine)) I didn't buy it. Then, after a week, I put on a sweater and couldn't understand why it smelled so good❤️. After that, I bought the genuine one for myself at the store (who needs expensive alternatives for 450). Everyone at work asked about the new scent.
I can't find anything better than this product. I've tried everything, and it's like a drug - luxurious, stylish, sexy. Especially for those who love the smell of a car interior. I don't understand those who think differently, who prefer bandages and hospitals. I try something else as a replacement, but I always come back to it... I guess it's love.
The scent is very unusual. At first, I can smell bandages, a medical room. But for some reason, it doesn't repel me at all. It's strange, but interesting, like, wow. It has something mystical, enchanting. I can sense crushed leaves, slightly bitter. I've also tried a similar one - Royal Forest. That one was heavy and cold for me, it was associated with a wet forest and a heavy steel plate. But this one - wow. It's definitely a find for me.
The associations that arise in most girls and women familiar with this "fragrance" raise concerns. A series of reviews accurately summarize them: "something cold and overpowering, an association with the cold metal of a spaceship and distant lifeless planets," "the smell of a medical office, something resembling dentistry or dermatology," "the hospital smell transformed into a somewhat sickly sweet aroma. This is how it smells in a procedural room..." I decided to try it on my wrist. What can I say? The longevity is stunning. Ganymede overshadowed all the other fragrances I tested that day (except for Quentin Bisha's sister in the Royal Forest). They simply faded in comparison and seemed ordinary and cliché. But Ganymede is unconventional and very memorable. It stayed with me until the evening, until I washed it off. The sleeve of my winter jacket still smelled for several days. Passing by the wardrobe, I could enjoy this scent to the fullest. In conclusion, Ganymede has piqued my interest. However, due to some nauseating notes, I am holding back from purchasing it. I will go for a new test instead.
This fragrance is so sexy! It's like a wild aphrodisiac. It can make you lose your mind! Both me and my partner loved it. I will definitely buy the largest size for the two of us.
I wouldn't call it anything similar, at first it resembles Fahrenheit, then it smells like shower gel, as if the scent of a scandal with vetiver came from the bathroom. The smell is interesting, but not worth this money. The longevity is good, it lasts for a day. But definitely not for a week as they write here.
This fragrance is absolutely exquisite, it's simply incredible!
I didn't buy it here, but this fragrance is simply incredible! I can't even describe it... Out of this world!
I'm just shocked, I couldn't imagine that such a scent could be reproduced! It's something on the brink of fantasy! Unbelievable! It's as unusual as something I've been missing for a long time... It's like not a perfume, but a mood. You put it on and you want to conquer new heights! It's the scent of a confident woman who doesn't rely on others, but is playful and desired. I can't say that I see it on a man or a sweet submissive girl, it's the scent of a woman who knows what she desires. There's absolutely nothing old or bandaged about it. It's like a magazine, fresh gloss, fresh dollar bills, the scent of a new leather jacket, a hint of tree bark, flowers, musk, a scent but so fresh! Nothing sweet, everything is sexy but cool. I consider it a must-have for a business meeting or any situation where you need to be composed, confident, make a statement, be strong and self-assured. Yes, it's the scent of strength, confidence, and sexuality!
This perfume is simply a masterpiece. It's not just about testing it, but rather taming it, as only then it truly reveals its cosmic nature. It effortlessly plays and harmonizes these notes, leaving a lasting impression with its longevity and trail. It's simply love!
I had high expectations for this fragrance, based on the reviews. I ordered it and was disappointed. The scent reminded me of bandages smeared with Vishnevsky ointment.
These perfumes are simply amazing, but they may not be everyone's cup of tea. They have a fresh scent and excellent longevity, but of course, they come with a high price tag too! I got a sample to try them out and I really liked them!
Well, what can I say? This is a masterpiece. A work of art. It will remain popular for many years. Fresh, new, spicy, interesting. The longevity and sillage are impressive. The mineral-citrus opening and beautiful immortelle in the base, like the shell of a walnut. However, it is so lovely! I feel like I'm in a glossy magazine or a brand new car salon. All of this is truly here. But how harmonious and beautiful. I prefer it more in the summer. When properly dosed, it refreshes like a mountain stream. I would even categorize it as a fragrance of purity. However, I like it less in the winter because the aldehydes become more powerful.
P.S. Getting a pack of wet wipes as a gift with a perfume that costs 11,000 hryvnias is cringe-worthy.
Incredible fragrance that constantly unfolds, I can feel it on my hair and wrists even on the next day. I bought it here on the website in a 30ml size.
I purchased a 2.5 ml and today received a 10 ml. I want to say that they are different - the 10 ml does not have a spray nozzle and gives off a heavier masculine scent. I really liked it when I bought the 2.5 ml, but with the 10 ml, I can't say anything more as I am dissatisfied.
I ordered a trial mini version and was thrilled with it. The scent lasted all day long. However, when I received the 100ml bottle, I was deeply disappointed. The smell is the same, but it doesn't last at all. Could it be a counterfeit?
I believe that it may not be suitable for everyone, but on some people, it's simply amazing. I really like it on my mom. It seems to me that it's for confident, self-sufficient, strong women. That's how I would describe it. It's too much for me, instantly impressive, but after half an hour, it starts to irritate, and after an hour, I feel like washing it off. And on young girls, it will sound strange.
Awesome scent! Women say they feel bandages and dentistry, but there are no such notes here! In these fragrances, I feel the scent of mandarin, glossy magazines, very delicate suede, mineral and metallic notes! The scent sounds very nice and sophisticated, it lasts long with a great sillage, nothing sticks out. Also, they say it's not long-lasting- a lie, you just need to let the fragrance settle for at least three weeks, or even a couple of months, and then it will delight you! In my opinion, this scent is masculine, so it sounds better on men. Thank you so much, Makeup, for the original!
The perfumes need to be "tested", the first impression is that there is something medicinal, but... let it be on you, the smell is simply beautiful, then
I received a 30ml bottle and I'm very happy. I've been in love with this fragrance for a long time, but I'm afraid to buy the larger size because I'm scared that my obsession might fade. This perfume has an androgynous style and suits those types of people perfectly. I don't agree with the opinion that it smells like band-aids. It smells like someone spilled Bailey's on a fresh, expensive glossy magazine. People at work tell me that I smell like vanilla cheesecake mixed with photo developing chemicals. There are people who remember how that smells. If you're into mineral scents or, like me, you love leather fragrances for their chemical undertones, then this is the perfume for you. But make sure to try it first, as this masterpiece might not agree with you on a physiological level.
This fragrance is specifically designed for men, so it's not surprising that women may not like it. The initial scent in the tester was different, but the base notes are the same. I ordered it here and have been using it daily since the purchase, putting other fragrances on hold for now.
The scent is amazing, it lasts for a long time, and has a pleasant trail.
The fragrance is simply superb.
Hospital, medicine, Vishnevsky ointment, freshly printed magazine - that's all. In my opinion, the smell is very specific, but poor. It feels like the positive reviews are just making fun of those who haven't bought it yet. Along with it, I ordered Amouage Memoir Man - ooooh, now that's a masterpiece. Not for everyone, but with so many notes and chords, it's definitely worth attention. As for Ganymede - it's a waste.
The ribbon is missing, however, the perfume in the tester was quite long-lasting.
My husband gave me this fragrance as a gift for International Women's Day. The scent is simply incomparable. However, there is one issue. Everyone says that it has a long-lasting and powerful sillage, but on me, it completely fades away within two hours. Others around me cannot even detect it. Could it be possible that this is not an original product?
This is my love ❤️❤️❤️
I absolutely adore this product! It has become my go-to and I can't imagine my life without it. From the moment I laid eyes on it, I knew it was meant for me. Its design is simply stunning, and it brings a smile to my face every time I see it.
The functionality of this product is top-notch. It performs flawlessly and exceeds all my expectations. It's incredibly user-friendly, making it a breeze to navigate and utilize its features. Whether I'm using it for work or leisure, it never fails to deliver outstanding performance.
The quality of this product is exceptional. It's evident that great attention to detail was put into its creation. The materials used are of the highest grade, ensuring durability and longevity. I can confidently say that this product will withstand the test of time.
Not only is this product visually appealing and highly functional, but it also provides great value for its price. It's an investment that I'm glad I made. I've recommended it to all my friends and family, and they have all fallen in love with it too.
Overall, I can't express enough how much I love this product. It has truly exceeded my expectations and I'm grateful to have it in
My love and admiration! I have been wearing it since the fragrance was released and I love it in all seasons. It is very long-lasting, so there is no need to worry about it fading away. This scent is absolutely amazing! It embodies the essence of modern self-sufficiency. It is the smell of the universe! For me, it acts as both a mood booster and an antidepressant.
Everyone experiences the scent differently. It is very similar to Alexandre.J Mandarine Sultane 1:1. I did not perceive anything extraordinary. There are much brighter and denser fragrances available.
Based on the reviews, I understand that I should definitely get it! And that's exactly what happened with my Bacara, my love!
I took a sample. The scent of the socks in cheap shoes is very unpleasant.
Great fragrance. It is unique, luxurious, versatile, and has a long-lasting trail.
This fragrance is indescribable! It's in a league of its own, unparalleled! It's impossible not to be inspired by it! When I wear this perfume, it's like entering a different reality! I simply melt into it... It's definitely not sweet! It's slightly bitter, spicy... I can't say enough about how exceptional it is!
I agree with the previous commenters who suggest testing the fragrance in a small amount first. My impression is that this fragrance really needs to "grow," or rather, "come into its own." It is one of the few perfumes that initially shocks with its distinctiveness and ambiguity in the perception of its first notes, but provides an enjoyable experience as it unfolds throughout the day.
One thing I can say for sure is that after using it, you will think three times about whether it is worth going back to the luxury scents, which are noticeable from others, even though they may be expensive but recognizable. Or should you instead stick with these not cheap but expressive perfumes, as we wear them to stand out in a BETTER way from others and leave a wonderful reminder of ourselves to those around us.
This fragrance definitely needs to be tested in a specific way! Do not buy it based on reviews, as the scent is truly unique and unlike anything else! It is very heavy, I would even say viscous... Specific... Cosmic, because it is so incomprehensible. I liked it, but only if applied very lightly... Suffocating and with a long-lasting trail. A stranger on public transportation told me that you have a Bacarra scent... Naturally, my answer was no, but apparently it reminds someone of Bacarra... I don't know... Not me... but it will definitely be something new for you! Give it a try!!!! Just with a sample!
After reading the reviews, I decided to order this product because it's the top one for 2022. I've never tasted anything more delicious than this Ganymede. It's something incredible with an extraordinary flavor. It's impossible to describe it with words. When I wear Ganymede, I feel like eating myself. However, I quickly get used to the scent and no longer notice it on myself, unfortunately. But people around me notice the delicious trail even on the second day. I've never been asked so many times about the scent and where to buy it. I definitely recommend it. But this fragrance is only suitable for cold weather! I think it will be too heavy for summer. Apply the fragrance on freshly washed body! I recommend it, but I emphasize that you should buy the original version! It's crucial for this fragrance. And to start, get a sample of about 5 ml.
Today I received and couldn't resist testing it. First, it's a bandage. Within a few minutes, love started. I'll wait for it to settle and write a new review. I bought it for a different purpose. Recommendations. At least give it a try.
Since the previous review was cut off, I will add:
Now, this is absolute LOVE!!) A spacious wardrobe niche, and my hand reaches out to it - to the handsome GANIMED!)
This product is absolutely amazing! It is long-lasting, has a great sillage, and has a magical scent. It is definitely one of my favorites!
However, I strongly advise against buying this niche fragrance without testing and wearing it first. Niche fragrances are different from luxury ones. Luxury fragrances are designed for mass consumers and are easily understandable. Niche fragrances, on the other hand, have a different appeal.
I personally tried Ganymede four times. As soon as it was released, I purchased a decant because the description and reviews were ambiguous from the start.
Upon the first application, I was completely puzzled, shocked, and disgusted. It just did not work for me. I tried to wash it off, but it had already penetrated into my skin. It was torture because it caused a strong feeling of disgust and nausea.
First, I perceive sweet notes, and then it transitions into a scent of leather or suede. It is very long-lasting, and the fragrance accompanies me throughout the entire day!
I didn't buy it here, but I decided to leave a review. At first, I purchased a sample to get acquainted with it. Immediately after receiving it, I decided to give it a try. And yes, it was both familiar bandages and something else. I decided to let it settle. And, oh miracle! The scent completely transformed and captivated me right away. I simply couldn't get enough of it. Moreover, in these difficult times, it became a true antidepressant for me. It has excellent longevity. It performs well even in hot weather. I had to buy a full-sized bottle, and I absolutely have no regrets about it.
The fragrance is inspired by the legend of Ganymede - a hero in Greek mythology who possessed impeccable beauty, allowing him to rise to the rank of cupbearer to the gods and become the lover of Zeus, who granted him immortality.
This unique perfume composition opens with the liveliness and brilliance of mandarin and saffron, while violet and Chinese osmanthus bring softness to this olfactory structure. The absolute of immortelle, akigalawood, and the dry, clean powdery scent of minerals complement the beauty of "Ganymede."
The perfume is incredible! It is unlike anything else! However, it is necessary to test it out, as everyone has different tastes.
