La Gemme Kobraa

“A linear, green incense scent that left me with the impression of a pan of kale forgotten on the burning stove, that kind of raw kale that can be bitter and too chewy...and I even smelled a hint of burnt rubber.I had been looking for the fragrance in niche fragrance stores of Berlin and other major cities for a very long time but the beautiful, bright green bottle can no longer make up for the weak overall impression of the scent. For the price, "Kobraa" is a big let down for me.Fragrance: 5.5/10, Longevity: 8/10, Sillage: 7/10, Flacon 10/10.”

“I have 30mls of this from an Emirates amenities bag. This is not my taste at all. There is a sour sharpness or bitterness to it that never goes away because of its good performance. Makes my nose tingle and not in a good way. Price on all of these Bvlgari releases is also way way above their actual value in my opinion.”

“Super resinous. Big insistent woody thrumb. Very moreish. Very satisfying.Lasts a good time: I applied at 6pm and it was still going strong enough at 11pm. Nothing left in the morning. Very sympathetic to over-spraying. If there is a downside it would be that it is very linear - but I don’t see it as a negative. Great perfume and great performance.”
