Gems Power by Tous

Reminds me a lot of Loewe’s Pink Magnolia.

I love it; it’s super citrusy, just what I need for semi-tropical weather. It’s not expensive, smells great for work or a casual day out with friends. It smells like that green apple from DKNY but without the resinous edge, more youthful and fruity, almost unnoticeable. If you like smelling clean, you’ll adore it. It’s not sweet, don’t expect it to be. It’s not juicy, but I think it suits both young people and adults equally well. Sillage 6/10, longevity 6.5/10, fragrance 8.5/10, price 9/10.

I expected a fresher, more prominent apple scent, like those used in men’s perfume ads… But for me, it’s dry, almost powdery. It’s not juicy, bright, or soapy as I hoped. It smells clean, but in a different way. The floral heart passes quickly on my skin… Could it be the 34-39 degree heat that fades it? I thought it would be a summer scent. It leaves me indifferent; I forget how it smells. Every time I think of it, I say ‘oh no, I can’t, I’ll give it another chance,’ and it leaves me just as unmoved. Is it pretty? Yes. Does it smell good for the price? Yes. Does it last? About average. For clean or soapy scents, Toy 2, Miracle, Mademoiselle Rochas, Chance Tendre, or Natura’s Jabuticaba Water beat it. I’ll see if it impresses me differently in another season. But if someone wants to buy it from me in the meantime, they’ll go straight… and leave… hehe.

I love it! The scent is delicious, feels super fresh, and brims with energy.

One of my favourites. Bergamot, tangerine, and Granny Smith apple are the stars. A balanced mix of citrus and sweet fruits. The peony heart is incredibly fresh and finishes with amber and cedar. It’s a very fresh and fruity perfume. I’d define it in one word: cheerful. What I like most is that it lasts all day, even longer on clothes. Although it’s not an exceptional aroma, it’s very rich and enjoyable.

I loved it! I bought it blind after reading the reviews and notes, thinking it was what I was looking for. It’s very fresh, ideal for warm climates. It has fruity notes but isn’t cloying; it’s very well balanced. Plus, it has good longevity, and on my skin the base notes remain extremely pleasant. Without a doubt, a success.

One word: brilliant. It’s that scent that lifts your mood, feels clean, and lasts all day. I love how well-defined the cedar is. 9/10

I haven’t worn a perfume that made me feel comfortable since Eau de Eden by Cacharel disappeared. I never found anything else that gave me those multi-coloured sensations. After ten years of trying everything and ruling out earthy, gourmand, or short-lived scents, I read about Gems Power and knew I was on the right track. I can’t identify notes with expertise, but I know exactly what each item on the stand smells like. This is an explosion of colour: exotic and refreshing fruity, floral but not like a bunch of flowers, with a green touch without bitterness. In one word: JOYFUL. It makes me feel dressed up, fun, and eager to go shopping in summer. People turn to smell me, and my neighbours will know I’ve been out. I want them to recognise me by my scent. The longevity is incredible: I sprayed it at 11, and at 20:40 it’s still perfect. My husband told me he’s been smelling my neck all afternoon. Now it’s a slightly sweet scent, vanilla-like, just like in Tous shops. It’s fresh, youthful, and put-together. The only downside is that it’s a limited edition; houses should stop releasing their best perfumes for such short periods.
