Tropical dessert; some sort of fluffy sweet pear cake. A whiff of suntan lotion every now and then. The amber lurks about; comes and goes, a bit strong sometimes. Lovely tropical white florals as a consistent linear background to it all. Faint green notes very far back in the composition but still noticeable.
Has some powdery vintage elements as well but overall is clearly a modern scent.
It’s not to my tastes personally (I have a very low tolerance for fruit and amber) but it’s interesting, genuinely fun/playful, and very well done. I’m glad someone suggested I try it.
*People are talking about animalic notes but fwiw I personally don’t get any of those. Just amber.

I believe it’s the violets, apples, pear, and osmanthus blend that causes the animalic note at first and soften through time. Roses, jasmines, and sandalwoods are also there but blended well in away that causes a support to that animalic top note.
It’s not stinky animalic, or even musky, it’s just that slightly harsh naughty animalic that could cause something sensual and captivating or maybe luring someone who’s around.
I can’t define wither if it’s disturbing or just perfectly silaged for one time test, it just needs more tests to define it’s potential.

Naias opens up with a civet note and I thought ” fruity floral??” BUT, it develops into a very unusual fruity floral.
The violet is tame here, dusty but quiet, just enough to take the tartness edge off the fruit and the civet/amber remain throughout for me albeit subdued compared to the initial first blast. It reminds me of a lighter zoologist Civet but with more fruit going on, very unique and wearable but not a summer time scent for me, I have a bottle and will use it but it’s not a must have for me so probably won’t replace it when its gone, it’s certainly worth testing and at the price for 30mls I would advise that you do rather than blind buying.

Blast of animalic something, civet I suppose, then fruit…pear and apple above all.
The evolution is about something “powdery”, not violet in my opinion, it has nothing of its sweetness, is more some dusty amber than a flower.
An old-manner composition, heavy, really very different from what I expected. I can say this is a well refined and quality juice, but not for me, at least, not in Spring-summer time.

This is stunning. First thought was..damn..I need a full bottle of this!
That was my first spray of Naias.
Im not a huge violet fan by any stretch, so to have won me over..that says volumes. It smells a little vintage but massive in personality and freshness. Violet, osmanthus, a tinge of apple and the rose and iris keeping things lush and feminine. This is a deconstructed violet and thanks to the ionones, user results will vary if they block certain receptors in the nose.Drydown a powder amber. Why isnt this getting more press?! Its fantastic!!!!
