Have you worn Formula do Humor?

Tell us how it opens, how it settles on your skin, how long it lasts and when you wear it.

  1. It’s a sweet fragrance reminiscent of the aftertaste of premium milk chocolate with little added sugar and the natural sweetness of cocoa. As it settles, the woods emerge. At first, that green and citrus freshness (bergamot and violet) cuts through the sweetness, which I love compared to ultra-sweet feminine gourmands that I don’t like. The first few minutes are intense, almost suffocating, but the magic happens when it dries down: the woods take over, the scent becomes dry, and a moderate vetiver blends with the violet and amber. It’s versatile, comfortable, warm, and relaxing, projecting confidence. PS: The heart smells very similar to Alexandre J.’s Oscent Black.

    It has more notes than declared: on Natura’s blogs, bergamot, mandarin, mint, black pepper, and rose are listed in the top; hazelnuts, jasmine, violet, and cassis in the heart; and musk, cedar, amber, benzoin, patchouli, guaiac, vetiver, and sandalwood in the base. The opening is sweet and then settles without losing sweetness thanks to the creaminess of guaiac, amber, and hazelnuts, with a hint of black pepper at the bottom. I loved it at first, but later I got tired of it. I used it to go out, although it could work for daytime. I don’t see it as suitable for heat because it would become dense, and I think it’s more for an audience under 30.

  3. Highly recommended fragrance, accessible and with good notes; amber stands out, followed by vetiver when it dries down. I use it in summer, about 8 times in total. Today it was 17 degrees and I could evaluate it properly: sweet but not heavy, excellent price-to-quality ratio. It doesn’t project much and lasts around 6 hours. Ideal for those who enjoy orientals on hot days; I’m not a fan of aquatic fragrances, so this is a definite pass. Greetings from Argentina.

    Sweet and spicy opening with a touch of bergamot citrus; very pleasant for daily use, especially in the afternoon. I should clarify that I tested it as a Natura gift: although I liked it, I wouldn’t recommend buying it because, unlike other users, I feel it’s too expensive for its quality. Overall it’s good but improvable, as it smells generic and typical of a catalogue. A negative detail is the bottle with the plastic wrapping that peels off over time.

    I agree with everything in astrocito’s review. I’d only add that it shouldn’t be used more than 4 sprays because it’s very dense; better to avoid the neck so it doesn’t become cloying. I use it on the inner arms, chest, and nape. Don’t overapply! Risk of a blood sugar spike xD.

  6. Very sweet, One Million style, with good presence but it ends up being quite dense.
