The fragrance is sweet, warm, not overpowering, long-lasting, and its final note is like powder. It's more unisex. It reminds me of a scent from my childhood. It was released when I was exactly 5 years old. It feels like I've heard it from someone older. I won't buy the full version as I want something more modern.
Long-lasting, intriguing, in my opinion more suited for men or women over 45. Maybe if I try to approach it from a different perspective, I'll appreciate it more. For now, it's not my scent, it's heavy and overwhelming.
The fragrance is amazing, perfect for daring admirers of bitterness, spicy herbs, and frankincense.
The scent is warm, slightly sweet, and a bit spicy. It smells like cinnamon and a hint of pine, but in a gentle way. I would classify it as old-school. I think those who enjoy classics will like it during the cold season.
Personally, I find the scent to be very strong and bitter, reminiscent of the 80s... similar perfumes were once worn by my grandmother, definitely not my style, it actually makes me feel uncomfortable.
However, it is very long-lasting and has a strong sillage.
It's a shame that the scent didn't suit me.
The fragrance is not sharp, except for the first couple of minutes after spraying. It has a mix of cologne and pine scent, but it really gave me a fresh Christmas tree vibe when brought into the house. However, after that, I couldn't really smell it anymore. BUT... after a few days, I wore a sweater with it and wow, it had a sweet and cool spicy scent. My mom says I smell like fragrant spices and clay, all of that. For the price of 100ml, it was superb. I bought it just because of the promotion here, 1000 UAH for 100ml. If you like non-basic scents, then go for it. It may seem "scary" at first, but even my mom says, "It smells like something in the room." But if someone needs alternatives, just write here what you want. There are ALL BRANDS available.
I really liked the perfumes. They are perfect for those who enjoy a strong scent.
I love these types of fragrances. It starts off sharp but quickly transforms into a beautiful retro powder with flowers and pine. It is truly unisex. It lasts a long time! However, it may not be suitable for everyone. It is better to test it out.
I have been using Amway perfumes for many years. Unfortunately, the company has stopped selling them in Ukraine. I tried to find something similar that wouldn't cost a fortune and wouldn't be worse. These perfumes remind me of "Ansestry". At first, they were also "nuclear" for me, but then I got used to the smell of fir trees and tangerines. They are long-lasting, just don't overuse them. They are purely winter scents. Plus, kudos to the company for fast delivery.
For this price, it's a steal! I really love it, but I want to say that it's for those who enjoy a bit of bitterness and a light spicy note in fragrances. The spice or eastern note is not sharp, not salty, and indeed slightly sweet or warm, leaning towards the base. At the beginning, there's a bitter aroma of citrus peel and green notes, slightly sweet and warm, while the spices and oakmoss in the heart of the fragrance add unisex appeal, reminiscent of men's perfumes. It's not a floral scent, and not cool, although the bitterness at the beginning may seem cool. And when it fully unfolds, it becomes warm and cozy, like a cup of hot tea. It's perfect and long-lasting for cool weather.
Great scent, quite long-lasting. Now it's my favorite. The delivery was fast, thank you.
I am very satisfied! The scent is amazing and the delivery was fast!
This fragrance is an excellent representation of spicy and aromatic scents. It is very dry and full of spices, without unnecessary sweetness. It immediately evokes a sense of old-school sophistication with its multidimensional brightness and intensity, which may initially come across as more masculine, but by modern standards, it is considered unisex. It also sits beautifully on men's skin - my husband even carries a bottle with him and is convinced it's a men's fragrance. Overall, we both wear it together. I definitely recommend it to those who are looking for vibrant, spicy, warming, and unique scents.
Once again, I am convinced that I do not recommend buying an unfamiliar perfume based on comments. The scent is not feminine or unisex at all. It smells like an older man, around 55 years old... So I will give it to my father if he likes it...
This is an absolutely fabulous scent!!!! I always trust my intuition and it has never let me down... even when it comes to perfumes)) It's a unisex fragrance. However, it leans more towards the feminine side. In short, it's amazing! It lasts long and is worth the price. It's perfect for those who enjoy unique scents. The delivery was as fast as always. Thank you!
The fragrance evokes a nostalgic powdery scent. It is highly long-lasting with a lingering trail. However, it can feel suffocating in enclosed spaces. Perfect for the autumn and winter seasons.
The perfume is luxurious. I have bought it for myself four times already. I gifted it to all my friends. Everyone loved it. The scent was initially unclear. I could detect a hint of pine and wood, then various different aromas, and finally vanilla. In short, for its affordable price, I have not found anything better to date. The service is always top-notch. Thank you.
The scent is absolutely amazing! Everything about it, from the fragrance to its long-lasting trail, is just perfect! This fragrance is absolutely ideal for those who prefer subtle, sweet, and luxurious scents. I am extremely satisfied with the excellent service and fast delivery provided by the store!
My impressions: a unisex fragrance! One hundred percent! Very spicy! Interesting and long-lasting! On my icy skin, not much holds well, but I waited for cool weather and can say that it sits well! I have already experimented with it, it opens up more on hot skin, but even on very cold skin during the cold season, it is good! I bought it for my collection, but I will use it! Not retro! But something... Like I hear something "masculine" in it, but it doesn't ruin it. I am very happy that I have it!
What an incredible special scent! I only regret that I took only 50ml. I will definitely get a larger volume. I really love such fragrances, thank you so much!
Love at first sniff. Initially, the scent is sharp and tangy, but then it becomes soft and enveloping. It is very, very long-lasting, leaving a trail behind. The smell of patchouli is still noticeable on clothes even after washing, and it lingered on my hair for two days.
This perfume, despite being from 1985, sounds modern. You can feel it in the ingredients. It is a modern gourmet fragrance. Try applying it on a cotton pad and placing it in the room, then smell the trail from a distance - absolutely no 80s vibes. You can find similar sounds in modern niche perfumes. I can easily imagine it on a man who wears sweet scents. I bought the 30ml size.
The Legend.
Luxury will never offer anything better.
First, it smells like grandma's triple cologne, then cinnamon + whiskey. This is my favorite winter scent, but I feel like it's not very long-lasting, or maybe I just can't smell it anymore. It's as if I've merged with it completely.
I love buying this fragrance for winter. But my last purchase was a big disappointment, unfortunately... It smells like medicine, some kind of chemical... The bottle and appearance seem the same... but nooo... it feels like wasted money.
I did not buy it here, but I would like to write a review about the perfume itself. I must say that you definitely cannot buy it blindly without testing it, as I did. I ordered it online. And as soon as I opened it, it seemed to me that it was of poor quality or simply old and faded. I was very disappointed. I tried wearing it occasionally, but it didn't suit me... (I don't like light and sweet scents.) Now I'm in search of something new and unusual. And so, after standing on the shelf for two years, I started sniffing this fragrance again. And there is something about it that is so appealing. In short, after two years of purchase, I started liking them. But the scent is very intense and long-lasting, so one spray will be enough. I found it overwhelming with two sprays, maybe that's why I didn't appreciate the full aroma right away.
It smells like a fairytale! As if I opened Grandma's chest. The initial notes are resinous and quite sharp, then I distinctly heard anise, and afterwards a delicious powder remained. Definitely a winter perfume. I think we will become friends.
Simply awful. They reek unbelievably of cologne.
I ordered this perfume blindly after reading numerous reviews. I didn't detect any resemblance to the smell of goats, burnt tires, grandma's wardrobe, or the cologne that some dissatisfied ladies mentioned. I sat next to the birthday girl and occasionally inhaled this fragrance. At the beginning, I felt like I was walking through a freshly mowed grass field after rain in the summer. After an hour, the scent of chocolate, rum, vanilla, and some flowers started to emerge. For the next 4 hours, I distinctly felt a powdery-spicy trail. The smell is very feminine, multifaceted, and absolutely not retro. Many thanks to Makeup for the fast delivery, despite the difficulties of shipping during wartime. I bought a tester for a small amount of money, and the batch code 1174 on the box and at the bottom of the bottle matched, indicating that it was manufactured on June 23, 2021. 100% original. The birthday girl was thrilled with the gift. I wish everyone a peaceful sky!
"Another star"
The store worked well, and the delivery was as always pleasing. The scent... it needs to settle before testing. It is very strong, spicy, even overpowering. I will try to become friends with it during the cold period.
Magical fragrance! Soft and cozy. I'm glad I came across it.
I will update my review from a year ago because I am amazed by the transformations in the sound of Obsession. I rarely used it, it sat for almost a year, not that I didn't like it, but I didn't feel any special love for it, just a New Year's, spicy-vanilla scent. Now, in the heat of +30 degrees and high humidity, it revealed something unimaginable when applied spontaneously: crushed grass, ripe leaves, pine needles, coriander, cardamom, sharp-spicy basil, all seasoned with vanilla, not overly sweet and with a background of oak - maybe bark. If you listen carefully, there are a few animalic notes, in this case - clean cat fur. Sensual, languid, deep, impossible to get enough of, I spray it at home and enjoy it. Maybe it's the temperature, maybe it's a year of aging, but I will consider getting a second bottle. I'm writing this to encourage those who didn't immediately like it - give it some time. Just like me.
Oh, how wonderful it is! Spices, incense, amber - a sparkling diamond, its fragrances can drive you crazy! Incredibly long-lasting. I bought 100 ml at a great price on makeup, thank you for the fast delivery from the EU!
I'm glad I was able to buy this perfume at a VERY good price! Thank you, makeup)
But the scent itself is currently all about church incense on me... I can't say that I dislike it or find it unpleasant, it's just strange somehow))) I'll wait until colder weather, let the perfume settle.)
I ordered out of curiosity. I liked the scent, even though it's from the past, I definitely recognized it. In the first minute, I smelled a tire smell, but it was delicious, then vanilla, and the bottle is very interesting. Thank you for your promptness!
I received it, sprayed it, and heard a single note of cinnamon. I gave it to my husband, convincing him that it was a masculine scent. He liked it. After a day, I sprayed it again and it was MINE once more. It's alive! It sounds different every time. Always wonderful. I love it! Makeup, as always, is top-notch. Thank you.
Today at work, I received my order (I got the 30ml size because I didn't know this scent). I opened the bottle and sprayed a little bit.. my colleagues immediately described it as "masculine, strong, and heavy", but after 10 minutes, everyone was raving about it, everyone liked it. The scent unfolded, there is a hint of bitterness, and some spiciness, but it's all quite soft and pleasant.
It hasn't even been a week since I received my first bottle, and I've already ordered a second one! It opens up on me in such a magical way, it's like sorcery! I've never experienced such depth in a fragrance before. When I apply it on my wrists and inhale, it breathes with me, as if it's alive, changing its scent with every breath. It's like another scent of the living nature. If Truth is the smell of freshly cut green grass with field flowers near the water for me, then Obsession is the magic of a deep ancient impenetrable forest heated by the scorching sun, so dense and thick that the sunrays don't pass through the leaves to reach the ground... and with the first spray of this perfume, I am transported into that forest, amidst the abundance of ripe grass surrounded by an old tree and sun-warmed foliage! And incense, so much incense... it's mine! That's why another bottle of this enchanting potion is on its way to me.
Oh, it's fantastic! At first, when I received the package (it was coming from the EU), I was disappointed.... Where is the orient? Where are the depth and spices??? Only one wilted herb, like dried grass (I guess those are the green notes mentioned in the pyramid). But once it warmed up and settled... it's just something else! A spicy, oriental, resinous marvel! Exactly what I was looking for, no overly sweet or fruity notes like peaches/watermelons and such! The wilted autumn herb didn't disappear))) but it got surrounded by other harmonious notes and turned into a perfume masterpiece! Blissful ecstasy! The longevity and sillage are among the best in my perfume collection.
Don't buy it without testing it first. Those who prefer modern fragrances might find it probably repulsive)))) it has such a deep scent, incomparable to modern ones! I'm glad I added it to my perfume shelf) very glad!
I had been considering it for a while, reading reviews, and finally decided to buy it. I am extremely satisfied. The scent is VERY long-lasting, maybe a bit sharp at first, but the final note is amazing! Thank you for the excellent service and the gift.
In my previous review, I would like to add that the fragrance is very versatile and sounds different every time. Yesterday, I applied it and went into my son's room (14 years old). He said that I smelled like bubblegum, even though he never noticed any of my scents before. So, there you have it, the power of obsession.
I decided to purchase this fragrance solely based on the reviews and description, without trying it beforehand. I must say, I am absolutely delighted. The scent is enchanting, rich, and spicy. Its longevity is incredible. However, to those who prefer fresh and light fragrances, I would advise against purchasing it without testing it first. This fragrance is not for everyone. But personally, I have fallen in love with it.
There are no doubts about the quality and authenticity. 5 stars. Fast delivery. Pleasantly surprised with the gift, thank you :) I highly recommend.
I liked the smell, but it's not long-lasting! It only stays for an hour. Honestly, I doubt its authenticity. I'm disappointed.
So, these are the same perfumes that I was expecting. I wanted to reminisce about the scent of those times. It sounds just like most scents from that era, and if you want to feel nostalgia, this is exactly it. It might seem outdated and too heavy to some. You have to wear it carefully - just one spray is enough. It has a long-lasting, expensive trail. I like wearing it in cool weather. In my opinion, it lacks the sweetness and lightness for hot weather. The delivery was fast, thank you Makeup for the service and gifts!
Evening seductive fragrance. The coriander is a little too loud at first, but later it mellows out and leaves a wonderful trail on the hair for a couple of days. I don't apply it on my body because I have a small child who doesn't appreciate perfume yet :)
I have ordered perfume blindly before, and this fragrance was no exception. After studying the scent pyramid, I had high expectations, but I did not expect to receive so much! It is a luxurious and complex fragrance. Despite being older than me by a year, it plays and sounds without any hint of retro. You need to be careful with it - never douse yourself with it, do not apply it to clothes or hair. Only on the body. Then it will gratefully resonate on you with all its
Thank you! I have known this fragrance for a long time, but it was impossible to find it. You made my dream come true! The scent is simply magical! And the delivery was very fast!
Unusually spicy, aromatic... so warm and cozy, intense... Dark chocolate, cognac, a burning fireplace, lacquered wooden toys – these are the associations that come to mind. It's the scent of amber autumn... Very multifaceted, it unfolds differently: sometimes cinnamon (although not mentioned), sometimes vanilla, not the sweet "bakery" kind, but rather a "spicy" one, citrus notes with a hint of bitterness, oakmoss, basil... and then suddenly a delicate scent of white flowers. And of course, sandalwood (I adore it). I received Obsession on January 4th, but only now have I decided to write a review - this fragrance needs to be "worn and understood," if I may say so - it's not easy... I bought it without testing, took my time to "try it on," and I can say: I absolutely love it, I've heard compliments from others, which is pleasing ))) Thank you, MAKE UP team, you're always on top )))
