It's a week later, I went back to Sephora website to read reviews or maybe tips on longevity/projection, but it was gone like you couldn't buy it again. So, I went to Fenty website, and a guy who wears it suggested pairing with another warm/spicy EDP. I think I'll try my YSL, Libre wish me luck 🤞🏼🤷🏽♀️

I actually like this scent. I find that, for me, if I do 2 sprays like I do all of my other fragrances, this becomes a skin scent that only I can smell unless I'm cuddling with the significant other. However, if I "overspray" it has a wonderful projection and I gets so many compliments.

Well as far as the cheaper packaging and the $10 higher price from the prior release is really another indication the cost across the spectrum has increased. From ingredients to logistics.

Been wanting to try this. Looking at the blueberry, citrus, floral, & vanilla notes I thought it might be a little like Poets of Berlin, but I haven't seen any comparisons to that so I'm curious to try this one.
@linzeeb43 жыл бұрын
I have samples of Fenty and a bottleof Poets of Berlin, and they don't smell at all similar to me. To me, Poets of Berlin has a green, fresh bamboo and orris stage that smells really natural (not so perfume-y though there may be a hint of florals) and then becomes a beautiful vanilla, blueberry scent that is kept fresh by the green and floral notes (rather than literal gourmand). Fenty is mostly a musky fresh floral scent. Though the blueberry is detectable at some point it's never prominent. I have to search for it to smell it at all. Magnolia, geranium and musk are the stars while tangerine lends a tangy (nearing antiseptic) bright edge, and then rose. Definitely worth trying! It's interesting and well done, even though I don't like florals enough to own a full bottle.

Thanks for your review. It confirms my view that the fragrance is delightful, not beast mode but respectable at this price point. Raising the price by $10 is not a big deal to me, since I tend to favor niche fragrances that cost so much more. I tend to throw out most of the boxes anyway, except for the most elaborate (e.g. Royal Crown, Clive Christian and some Xerjoff) and if the box can be recycled, all the better. I applaud Rihanna Fenty who started out as a rap/pop star and is now a billionaire with her partnership with LV and her beauty products. She was the first to offer a wide range of foundation colors for the vast array of skin tones (e.g. 40 shades). Genius!
@catherinelynnfraser20013 жыл бұрын
I think Iman was the first to offer up a range of foundation colours but good for Rhianna. I hope she is a real billionaire not a “Khardasian” billionaire.

Iman offered a range but not 50 shades (correcting myself) from the lightest to a deep brown as Fenty did. Fashion Fair also offers a more limited range. I wore them all, but Fenty broke new ground with the extensive range that included many more skin tones.

Fenty by Fenty sounds so much like a Fendi would have wanted to launch Fendi by Fendi but found it too bad... or didn't have the money to try one more time to come back :D Unfortunately because of this I find the name off-putting, to be honest. But coconut is not my thing anyway, I like flowers but don't like too fruity fragrances, so even without smelling it, this is surely a miss for me. But curious what will come from this brand in the future (hopefully no Fan di Fenty, though), especially regarding more masculine leaning unisex fragrances.

Regarding cutting cost: There's a shortage of paper, among other materials, thus the prices are much higher and many producers fear they might ran out of paper and carton sooner or later. 10$?
