Cacharel

I have had the honor of testing this perfume as a Lyko influtester, I own another Cacharel perfume from before and think they often have nice combinations that feel a bit special. I was quite curious about this one since the bottle is super pretty and I like the idea of refillable perfume, but the scent itself wasn't really "me". The first spray felt quite heavy and a bit "aunty" in tone, I guess it could be patchouli or maybe the combination of coconut and bergamot that makes the opening feel a bit old-fashioned. Luckily, it softens after a while and becomes significantly nicer when jasmine and orange blossom come through – then it becomes more feminine and fresh. The base with vanilla and amber makes it feel warm and quite cozy in the end, but that first touch brings down the overall impression for me. It feels more like "evening perfume" than something I would wear for everyday. The bottle, however, is really beautiful, definitely a detail you want to have on display. I also like that it is refillable, it feels more thought-out and sustainable. In summary: an elegant scent that will surely suit many, but for me, it becomes a bit too mature in the opening. After a while, it is nice, but I don't think I will use it as much as other perfumes I own. My rating: 4/5 – pretty bottle and nice development, but the opening is not really to my taste. #lykoinflutester #cacharel

I’ve been lucky enough to test Ella Ella, which has quickly become a scent I really enjoy. It feels light and obvious to wear every day, but at the same time, it gives me a little extra spark without being overwhelming. I usually prefer spicier unisex scents, but this one has actually charmed me. It’s soft, fresh, and feminine without feeling too sweet, and it melts into the skin in a way that feels very natural. I love how long it lasts and how it develops throughout the day – and I get many compliments when I wear it. The fact that the bottle is also refillable makes it feel like a more conscious choice for both my wallet and the environment, which gives an extra good feeling. Plus, it’s beautiful to look at where it adorns its place on the vanity! For me, Ella Ella has become a little everyday luxury that makes a big difference in how I feel. #lykoinflutester #cacharel

I have had the honor of testing this lovely perfume! It smells good and the bottle is just too cute! I love the look and it is so pretty. Perfect to have out in the bathroom cabinet! I would say in my opinion and taste that this perfume is for a mature person, it is not youthful in that way. But it has a fresh and mature scent. The scent notes listed in the description above match my experience of the perfume. #lykoinflutester
