Thank you!🙏 I try my best to describe what I smell. It’s not easy…

Teriaq is lovely but, yes, it is SUPER sweet. Youcll smell lkke you've drizzled caramel on yourself. I've been letting it macerate since i got it a couple of weeks ago to see how it devlops. Also been experimenting with layering it with some rose frags to see if that helps calm down the sweetness and bring forward the floral aspects. The bottle is11/10 tho. Gorgeous. I hope Lattafa does another frag with a famous nose. This was a really good release.

Yes. I’ll do the same. I’m gonna let it macerate longer to see if there’s any change. For now I’m happy it didn’t have any harshness that is quite typical from other ME perfumes.

Can't wait to smell Teriaq. I'm obcessed with sol de janeiro nr 59. Thanks for the review ! Cheers !

Hi Joanna, thank you for your reviews! I was very curious about Tubéreuse Astrale, definitely wanted to sample before buying because tuberose does not usually work for me unless it is done in a certain way. Now I know I need to try Carioca Heart and Oud Maracuja 💛

Tubéreuse Astrale is definitely worth trying. It’s very complex yet I know some people will love it. I am not into tuberose to begin with… Anyway yes the other scents are worth trying. I find them lovely 🥰

Love oud maracuja too..Love at first sniff .Priority on my wish list

Hi Joanna thank you for your honest & detailed review of Tubereuse Astrale - I happen to love it but I can see why others will not enjoy it. Iris Malikhân continues to be my favourite Crivelli. I need to give Oud Maracuja a second try. From Jusbox I loved Cheeky Smile and purchased a bottle after sampling. I will have to try Sirena & Sailors - many people love this one. Thank you!! 🙏 ❤

Hi Joanna! ❤ I am yet to try Tubereuse Astrale because I am very curious about it and I love tuberose 🥰 On the other hand I had same impression of two fragrances trying to be the one testing Oud Maracuja. This leather is too pungent for me and kills passionfruit almost entirely 🙈 So it was nice juicy passionfruit for me overshadowed by heavy leather. I also love Cheirosa 59, I might add it to my collection at some point! Great video as always ❤❤

Hey Justyna! I’m curious about how you will see Tubereuse Astrale. Since you like tuberose, this might be a love for you. It’s a LOVE or HATE I think…🙊 I see what you mean by leather being too pungent. It definitely overshadows the juicy passionfruit in the opening..

I agree with you regarding Teriaq-it is in the realm of La Belle but I find it different. Same way I feel alot Shagof Oud & Velvet Tonka-same family/vibe but not dupes at all.

I love Teriaq. It’s sweet. It’s well blended. Could be worn day or night. Like the suede drydown. It has a hint of sophistication. I get a La Belle feel but it’s less cloying than La Belle. I wear on its own or with the fenty holiday body cream under it. The bottle & packaging is beautiful. Chic. Best Lattafa so far.

Hi! I hope you will love it as much as I do 💞

I tested Tuberose Astrale 4 times before I decided to pull the trigger. I agree it’s complex, but like most Crivelli’s it skirts the line between feminine and masculine. For example my ride or die is Iris Malikhan but I can see people hating it. I love Oud Maracuja but am waiting. I own Carioca and when it was released I knew it would blow up. I own God of Fire so it’s her cousin.

@jmercadobeauty

Heyy.. I think it’s because I’m not a tuberose lover to begin with. I was just curious about it because it’s Maison Crivelli and it’s Quentin Bische. My favorite from them is still Hbiscus Mahajad followed by Iris Malkhan then Oud Maracuja ❤️ I never liked God of Fire but I can see the similarities between the two. I prefer Carioca Heart over GOF..

I love Teriaq❤❤❤❤is my favorite one

Carioca heart is nuclear. I just give myself 4 sprays and far away from my nose because it can saturate me very easily. Extremely long lasting over skin and eternal on clothes. Sampling is a very different experience to the sprayer from the actual bottle. I like it but it doesn’t work in the high heat because is beastly.

It is indeed a beautiful mango scent. But I think after Esxence I have tried a lot of mango scents too that there’s a bunch of great and unique ones. Also I am smitten by Siren & Sailors from the discovery kit of JUSBOX that I am more into that than Carioca Heart. It is indeed a beautiful summer scent though. Will play with it more and who knows I might change my mind…

Teriaq to me is like a flanker of Black Opium. I was so surprised to smell coffee. Does anyone get that? First spray was this powdery not yet made 3:1 type of sweetened packaged cappucino. It has some florals, yes, but that coffee. 🤷‍♀️ Drydown on my skin was las Alien, the original.

I love Tubereuse Astrale and will probably get a fb. Oud Maracuja is really nice but I'd probably tire of it later in the day. Teriaq on the way, a blind buy just for the bottle. I'm one of the few who don't seem freaked out by the snakes on this and Musamam White Intense. Cheriosa I smelled a few days ago but forgotten the smell already.
