Raw Notes: Unfiltered Reviews from a Perfume Lover

Perfume is personal. It’s beauty, memory, emotion — and sometimes it just doesn’t hit the mark. 💖
Welcome to Raw Notes, where honesty meets passion, and every fragrance gets a no-holds-barred review. 🌿


🌸 Why Honest Reviews Matter

Perfume reviews can be tricky. Notes sound beautiful on paper, but on the skin? Totally different. 💭

  • 💖 True Experience: What really lasts? What really wows?

  • 🌿 Mood & Context: A fragrance can smell heavenly in the morning and heavy at night.

  • Guidance for Scent Explorers: Honest insights save you from blind purchases and wasted sprays.

Raw Notes is about sharing the real — the highs, the lows, and everything in between. 🌸


🍊 Some Raw Thoughts

💐 Chanel Chance Eau Tendre

Sweet, airy, and youthful. Perfect for brunch or spring walks 🌞, but might feel too light for evening elegance.

🌙 Tom Ford Black Orchid

Luxurious, bold, and unforgettable ✨. A showstopper, but not for shy noses.

🍫 Maison Margiela Replica By the Fireplace

Warm, cozy, nostalgic 🔥. Absolute winter favorite — just be prepared for the strong vanilla notes.

🌿 Diptyque Philosykos

Fresh, green, serene 🌿. Nature in a bottle. However, it can fade quickly on warmer days.


🌿 Tips from a Perfume Lover

  1. Test Before You Buy: Skin chemistry changes everything 💖.

  2. Consider the Occasion: Some scents shine at night 🌙, others in daylight 🌞.

  3. Take Notes: Jot down what you love and what you don’t — your personal guide evolves with you 📝.

  4. Don’t Fear the Oddball: Unique or niche scents can surprise you — sometimes the weird ones are unforgettable ✨.


💫 Final Note

Perfume is personal, emotional, and occasionally unpredictable 🌸.
Raw Notes is about embracing that reality — celebrating the good, acknowledging the meh, and sharing the love for fragrance in all its complexity 💖✨.
