Very classic
Too classic for me. But the Sillage is really top and the durability is also... If you like many of the Chanel scents, you might find the scent very good. Classic, exclusive but not spectacular.

I don't know why but Feminin Pluriel reminds me of many of the very classic Chanel scents as mentioned above...I haven't found out yet which note I find absolutely "old-fashioned" in most of the Chanel scents and also in MFK Feminin Pluriel. Whether it is the rose or the jasmine, no idea.

Very " Chanellig", classical and for me very " normal" and unspectacular. But the fragrance smells very noble and exclusive

A dream from the Arabian Nights..,
I bought this fragrance in Dubai. I just love this fragrance and am saving the last drops for a special occasion. Soft, very arabic and with a lot of oud but not animalistic but warm and cuddly. Top Note is together with bergamot, lemongrass... What a combination together with the oud... The absolute madness... As heart note I smell best the Davana. An incredibly beautiful base note of oud, sandalwood and vanilla completes this masterpiece. It's 100% unisex and best suited for the evening.

Durability is very good, 7 hours on my skin . Sillage grandiose... Flacon a piece of jewelry...

But you have to be in the mood for the scent, I think. It's just a very woody scent... It's not an everyday scent, because it's very special and unique. I have rarely experienced such an interesting scent. Like a journey through 1,001 nights.

For oud lovers, a very clear recommendation.

Animalistic and only for extreme oud lovers...
I stroll around in Dubai Mall and of course I have to sniff thousands of scents. Totally blown away by the scents in this city, the herbal scents in the souks and the beguiling scents in the luxury perfumeries, I ask an Arabic salesman the question, which scent in his opinion best symbolizes Dubai... He immediately goes to the Armani Prive collection and sprays Oud Royal on my wrist. He says: This is Dubai... I am blown away. Wow, my beloved Dubai right there in that fancy black bottle. A must have... Oud as far as you can think, heavenly... The price in the mall scares me. Conversion 330 euros. Ouch... Well, I'll think it over...

So last chance, my weak spot is right in front of me, duty free at Dubai airport. I have to have that... Noted and bought... 70 Euro cheaper than in the Dubai Mall, but still a steep price

Back home, there's disillusionment. Oud Royal smelled so fantastic on my skin in the heat of Dubai, but not at all here. Sorry Armani but the first thing I smell when spraying is leopard cage in the zoo... 100% animalistic on the hard and dirty way, plus a lot of oud, not soft but hard core... For a man it may be that oud royal can work but for a woman it is no way...

Good mood scent. Right now, my signature...
I'm a big fan of orange blossom scents. Petit Matin smells so " clean" and so fantastic after clean laundry and orange blossoms. I just can't get enough of Petit Matin. A fragrance that is addictive. It is created as morning and day scent and it couldn't have been done better.

Everyone knows this scent of a good fabric softener, which does not smell like thousands of exotic flowers, but simply smells "clean" and "clean". You take the towels out of the dryer and can't stop sniffing at these freshly washed towels on the way to the closet. Heavenly orange blossom notes, a little lemon but soft and not sharp.

Petit Matin is for me a fragrance of the day, because it is a fragrance that is very close to the skin. A fragrance that is more a kind of cuddly scent for the wearer, without much sillage. The scent is fantastic, but for me it is more a summer scent. Shelf life is medium, on my skin 3-4 hours on clothes a little longer. Petit Matin is not suitable for me for the evening, that the sillage is quite small but for the day it is simply heavenly...

Masterpiece by Francis Kurkdjian with Monster Sillage
Wow, what a Duft❤️ Full of secrets and surprises. An extremely well told story from the top to the base grades. Sillage is enormous. Everyone in the room will notice you wearing Oud Satin Mood Extrait. So don't overdo it when you spray... Especially when you're eating out. Durability is extremely good...On my skin loose 12-24 hours on clothes for days...

If you study the notes, you will quickly realize that this is a complex fragrance with a never ending fragrance journey. In my personal opinion, Oud Satin Mood Extrait is a fragrance that is not for everyone... For a younger woman the fragrance is in my opinion inappropriate, because it is simply not playful at all, "flirty", young or sexy. The fragrance is mature, complex and a bit complicated... It was not love at the first sniff. I thought it was too complex and too "mature" in its base. Now I love the fragrance and I can't do without it. It's just an amazing scent... Sweet but at the same time deep and " dark"..

The first thing I notice after spraying is rose and violet...A ripe damask rose, velvety and in my fantasy with a few raindrops on the flowers. With a portion of vanilla... Vanilla crescents straight from the oven Vanilla Art, a little cinnamon and an irresistible amber...In the background plays a discreet oud, absolutely no animalistic oud, but a cuddle oud a la MFK... The scent is from the other star. The floralness of the violets, which I actually only weakly perceive, becomes weaker in the heart note and at the end there remains a velvety rose with a discreet oud scent as a soft companion... Sensual scent but also interesting and very special... A fragrance that you either love or hate, because it is simply complex and not for everyone well wearable...
