Jouri

“On my skin, there is something giving it a musky, body odor smell in the opening. Could that be the pitahaya? One spray lasted overnight though, at least 8 hours, and the dry down is gorgeous. Smells like tropical flowers with vanilla and Tonka and a faint patchouli. I have a large decant. I am not fond of the opening so will require further testing. I rarely give up on a perfume though because of a bad opening, but we shall see. Definitely not blind buy safe unless you are a unique fruity floral lover.”

“I held off on buying La Bomba even though I wanted it SO BAD after trying it at Ulta. I knew I had this on the way though so I held off. SO GLAD I did, because this is so close that I don't feel the need for the original. This is right out of the mail mind you, so not sure on the sillage or longevity, but as long as thats good, we square. La Bomba lasted about 4 hours on me, so as long as this lasts a few hours I just saved over $100. To me this is at least 95% similar, definitely recommend if you're interested in LB.”

“Jouri keeps the pitaya sweetness alive from opening to dry-down and uses less patchouli, making it fruitier and more candy-like. La Bomba gradually moves away from the fruity sweetness and settles into a less candy-like dry-down with more patchouli.”
