Armani Si Intense
I the short words - to mine nose it is a grown up, more resinous and slightly powdery version of Miss Dior Cherie 2005. I could not believe what I was smelling in the opening. Long discontinued gem in reincarnation! It has more patchouli and feels more refined, not so childish. I actually prefer Si over Miss Dior. As it settles it's softer and more powdery patchouli. The more it dryes it becomes less sweet and more patchouli and red currant. Overall nice scent ,but doesn't leave me breathless.

Queen of Spades
I don't know anything about similarity to fragrance it was inspired by as it's far to expensive to me , but this fragrance is a true gem. I am a person who enjoys fresh fragrances and this one is in my opinion my second after Chanel no 5. It is different, more soapy. It has this " expensive white soap bar " vibe. I really love to use it in summer. The soapy aldehydes are softly lingering around for the whole day. It gives confidence that I smell fresh and classy. This fragrance is so good I bought a backup bottle. I really appreciate the skills of creator as aldehydic perfumes are tricky . If done wrong they can be unbearable to smell.
I can safely recommended Queen of Spades to all who enjoys soapy aldehydes fragrances.

Chanel no5
To me Chanel no5 is essential like the air. First time when I tried it it was a big shock . " How anyone can enjoy it?" A scent of old ,cheap toiletries, I thought. Many years passed before I came across half full bottle of EAU de perfum ,and than lighting stroke me. A BIG LOVE, so big I can't be whiout this fragrance. My favourite is Perfum formulation. It is the most sophisticated, clean scent that I associate with sun rays.It makes me feel beautiful, happy and confident. To me it smells like bright, crispy summer morning.Love it.

Tender Musk Arabian Oud
Tender Musk it is simply a nice quality white , feminine leaning white musk. It is slightly sweet ,but sweetness comes from " dry fruits" accord . It also has a beautiful powdery note of dry amber. It is clean , but sensual, not a" baby powder " . On the drydown becomes a tad bit woody ,but still very gentle and powdery. It is a very classy scent , perfectly suitable for any occasion. I can't detect there any rose or Lilly of the valley as listed . Nevertheless it is a gorgeous , cosy scent. A bit too pricey unfortunately.

Holidays by Mancera
Hot summer evenings, party at the seaside night bar. Warm ,tanned skin with remaining coconut sun lotion. Warm, fragrant breeze coming from the heated up sea. Fun, free from worries, flirty atmosphere. This how this perfume smells to me. It's sweet ,potent, sun tan cream with loads of vanilla. It's loudness makes it suitable for the night out . Use modestly as when oversprayed can make your nostrils tired. Highly recommended for women in 20/30 or young in heart as summer evenings frag.
