Notes sound similar to Coco Noir …

am quite enjoying this, find it a nice and harmonious blend. Personally, I have a preference for scents that have a character I believe iDiva falls into that category, not particularly because it is screaming and turning heads but more because it does establish/enhance a mood. This is the scent of super- feminine and elegant women who know what they want and have their ways too. As some reviewers pointed it, I would also find it controversial/dissonant had a shy,timid person wore it (irrespective of age).
I have had a read at the reviews below, it is always very interesting to see how other people perceive certain scents.Here’s what I think with regards to some traits that reviewers picked out:
– sweetness > now iDiva to me is sweet, but agreed, not the tooth-aching kind. my skin amplifies sweet notes anyway, so for me, this is just the right balance
– masculinity > not the least masculine, unless one identifies femininity with sugary gourmands. In my book, this won’t be even fall into unisex, it is sensual feminity, the kind of allure that does not show skin and yet creates desire and intrigue in men.

This…this fragrance is so nostalgic… I didn’t live in the communist years, but I was born pretty soon after and this scent was so popular amongst ladies during my early childhood. My mom’s reaction was “wow! Smells like those fragrances we had during Ceaușescu’s rulership!” Yes! This is the reason I wouldn’t wear this one. It’s a pretty perfume, but too old fashioned for me. I imagine a 60+ years old lady wearing it, someone who lived most of their life during that era and has some old habits deeply ingrained. Moderate longevity and sillage.

According to Fragrantica’s scale, females aged 25+ have highly rated this scent and I can see why……It isn’t for those who love sugery, sweet, fruitchouli’s.. This is very heady and strong, almost leaning on masculine and I would say that 1st impressions upon spraying are very misleading !!!… This starts out like an aggressive, whirling, dizzying, powder bomb BUT it settles down into something quite exquiste.
It’s def not for wallflowers, but for those who like to leave a trail and be surrounded by the scent of their fragrance. However, if I’m honest I cant make out any of the individual notes, which do border on synthetic but for evening or on a cold day this can be forgiven as it really comes into it’s own.

iDiva Noir is mostly a beautiful sandalwood fragrance. The strong sandalwood mixes with aromatic white patchouli to create a soft airy cloud. Beautiful mimosa swirls in the air. Geranimum and white patchouli keep the scent dry. Vanilla and tonka mix for a gentle powdery feel, though it’s NOT at all baby powder talc. Instead, it’s a chic light powdery feeling with only the slightest hint of rose and mandarin floating in the air. The pink pepper berries are almost non existent, sprinkled very lightly just to add warmth and a lift to the dry airy nuance.
This perfume lasts easily 12 hours or more, with consistent moderate projection. It does not fade or shy away into a skin scent.
Though iDiva is extremely strong, it’s very pleasant and well mannered. It won’t choke you with heavy sprays. It’s dry, yet very smooth with no sharp edges. iDiva is powerful and definitely not good for office wear unless you use only ONE spray.
Easily unisex, iDiva isn’t sweet or bitter, not feminine or masculine. It’s a silky rich woody beauty anyone can wear.

Dear Fragrantica coleague, you are quite right.
I tried it a couple of months ago in an airport duty free, and the sales person told me that this perfume was “referenced” by Tom Ford. I liked it so much (I really loved it) that – already in the plane and due to the strong tamed patchouli note – I concluded it should be a clone of Tom Ford’s White Patchouli.
I ordered it and the perfume arrived yesterday. It is still as good as I thought it was but, although it has got a White Patchouli vibe, it’s really more similar to Clinique Aromatics in White (my sister wears that Clinique Frag so I am used to it).
In what regards the Armaf frag… It is awsome! It costed €12,00 + mail expenses (€5,00), so € 17,00 already with taxes.
Now with my wife wearing it today, I feel confident to present my ratings:
Scent:……………………8.0
Longevity:………………8.0
Sillage:…………………..7.0
Versatility:………………7.5
Uniqueness:……………8.0
Quality:…………………..8.0
Presentation:…………..8.0
Price:…………………….10.0
Average:………………….8.06 / 10,00
What an excelent EDP!!! I imagine it being used by a 25~60 years old woman, all around the year, day or night. It does not seems to be appropriated for a very informal situations like the beach, a picnic, or a school parents meeting… Totally appropriated for elegant gatherings, conventions, weddings, clubbing, and so on.

Wow….this is an atomic baby powder bomb with the slightest hint of spice on me. It’s fairly strong and if I spray too heavily, it does become suffocating lol (yes I did this). The flowers, patch and vanilla don’t even come out on me – only a hint of pepper and loads of powder. It’s a very different scent, one I think a person should try first before buying, unless you love powder…then I say go for it.

This is one of the strangest perfumes I’ve ever smelled. Regardless of what the notes listed above say, I’m reminded of fermented berries and raisins with a touch of something like herbs or mint underneath it all. I really like it because it’s just so different and exotic. It doesn’t remind me of any fragrance I’ve ever tested before. On my skin, it’s extremely potent and has great longevity.
