A delightful mix of sweetness, freshness, and a tropical touch. At first, the alcohol hits hard, reminiscent of a daiquiri with pineapple and orange peel. Then, flowers like rose, jasmine, and fresh violet bring that morning dew sensation. While it’s not the classic Halloween purple, that violet is its signature. Later, a clean passionfruit note emerges, similar to Natura’s but blended with flowers and a base of vanilla and caramel. Instead of being milky, it feels creamy thanks to the caramel and a hint of hazelnut. It’s sweet but not cloying, perfect for summer evenings. The patchouli and moss are there but don’t muddy the scent, keeping everything fresh. I love that sweet, tropical violet, far from powdery ones. It’s my second favourite Halloween scent, behind the traditional purple. Despite having seven edible notes, it’s not as sweet as I expected. It’s delicious and lasts longer than many strong perfumes. I’ll definitely be buying it again.

I almost left a bad review. I tested it on my wrist and thought I wouldn’t like it. I bought it two months ago for the packaging and the notes, needing a Halloween scent. At first, I only smelled alcohol and something citrusy that tickled my nose. After two months, it now smells like sweet, soft fruit juice, with a daiquiri-like alcohol whisper and a base I think is hazelnut. After five minutes, I detect chocolate in the base. I like it! I should keep using it to be sure. It’s the first time I’ve kept a perfume, and returning to it, I absolutely love it. If you don’t like it at first, let it macerate for two months. It might settle and you’ll love it. If not, you’ll have a lovely gift in your hands.

A total Halloween success, noticeable on the skin for over 10 hours. That passionfruit note is always there. It’s the first perfume to last more than 12 hours; truly a delicious sweet treat, even though it’s an EDT. Longevity 10, projection 10, price 10.
Damiana
A very enigmatic scent, sharing that typical Halloween musky note but it’s sweet and very penetrating. At first, it’s too much and can be cloying due to its longevity; it feels more for evening, as it’s excessive during the day. Ideal for winter or autumn, it lasts a long time for a cheap perfume, around 8 hours on normal skin.

My husband gifted it to me and on me, it smells of sweet violets. I recommend it; it’s suitable for all ages.

The initial hit is impossible to describe.
Euphoria
The opening gives me a bit of a fright, but oh, how delicious! It’s a perfume that embraces you, feels warm, and lasts an incredibly long time.

I’m not an expert in perfumes at all; my husband gifted it to me and I consider it very delicious in the opening; it smells of hazelnut, which predominates on me, a scent I adore. If I can catch the orange and the jasmine, it’s wonderful. The first hours are exquisite, very gourmand, sweet, and even smells of caramel, but after many hours it changes quite a bit and that dry-down doesn’t please me as much as the initial or middle stages. It lasts quite a while; in fact, on clothes it can last several days. I would probably buy it again, but not for summer or daytime; it’s more for an afternoon with a breeze and the beach.
Yasmin2015
My first impression upon spraying it was literally a shot of rum or vodka 🙁 but as it dried, it took on a very rich and sparkling sweetness. It has become one of my favourite fragrances for cold climates. It has very good projection and trail at a great price. Update: it’s the perfume with the greatest longevity and projection in my small collection. Moderate your sprays if you’re going to try it XD
Melisa Sos
This fragrance caught my attention because they said it was one of the longest-lasting and at a good price. I went to check the notes to see if it might please me, as I was prepared to make a blind purchase. I realised that every nose is a world; many people perceived the fruity notes, which didn’t happen to me, but despite that, I liked it quite a lot. It’s very different from what I’m used to wearing, but I swear it’s very rich to the olfactory senses; I can keep smelling and smelling it all the time. That said, I agree that its dry-down is the delicious part. The opening isn’t my favourite, but it’s just a matter of waiting a few minutes to smell its dry-down, where the violets bathed in caramel with a vanilla touch emerge. It’s a little powdery, without exaggerating to the point of smelling like an older lady’s perfume; no, its powdery note is very subtle. I recommend it and I don’t find it cloying.

I wanted to try it for that daiquiri and passion fruit note that called to me, but in the end, I only sense vanilla and a very mature touch. Dry down, it felt identical to the classic Olympéa, which I adore, but Olympéa with its salt note is another league entirely, butterfly 🦋❤️❤️. I wouldn’t buy it; it’s just another soulless vanilla bomb. Poor longevity, strong at first but afterwards only that ‘granny’ scent remains on my wrist, which I hate 🤣. Nothing like the Halloween Original 💟

What words describe this fragrance? Simply spectacular, my favourite and a great discovery. It’s super sweet; the opening is so fruity it smells like fruit-flavour gummies when you open it. As it dries, those fruity notes fade in intensity to give way to flowers with boozy passion fruit juice, caramel and vanilla. I barely notice the patchouli. It’s a wonder. Fabulous longevity of 12 hours and I even smell it after showering; if it gets in your hair, it lasts until the second wash, and on clothes it lasts a long time. Good sillage for the first 2 hours, then it drops but remains perceptible. Excellent price for that performance. If you love sweet things, this is for you

This perfume didn’t conquer me. The opening is extremely strong and sweet for about 2 hours, smelling intense, but as it dries on my skin it smells of soft passion fruit and leaves nothing behind. It has poor performance on my skin and it’s also not a scent I like much; it smells somewhat synthetic. I won’t buy it again
calif0rnia
At first, you notice the violet, pineapple, passion fruit and daiquiri, which can be heavy for the nose at the start, but the intensity drops and it moves from fruity to something softer, leaving a bit of passion fruit with vanilla and caramel, which smells delicious. I was pleasantly surprised, haha. I feel it’s sweet, sensual and mysterious, nothing like other Halloweens, and this one truly lives up to the name. It lasted about 6 hours on skin and about 8 on clothes, which isn’t bad. I prefer to wear it during the day as I’m used to woody and creamy perfumes, but I think it could be worn at any time with moderation. I liked it quite a bit, but I recommend trying it before buying as the intensity can be difficult for some
R3PTILIA
This perfume surprised me immensely for the better! I tried several Halloweens and couldn’t find any that caught my attention; I thought they weren’t my style. This particular one seemed very rich to me, feels sweet and the violets are noticeable. It has personality; it’s a very pleasant scent. I don’t think its longevity is the best, but without a doubt it’s the flanker I liked most 💜. I think it’s worth buying; one day I hope to have it in my collection
Xox
I love this perfume; I ordered it blindly based on a recommendation from the YouTube channel ‘Memorias de un perfume’; it was an excellent purchase. I love wearing it in autumn-winter; it has nothing to do with the traditional Halloween; this flanker is sweet but not cloying, I sense the liquor touch and the fruitiness of the pineapple, the violet that gives it that powdery touch. It’s intense at the start but becomes wearable over time, with excellent longevity and sillage. To be an economical perfume, it’s very well made. As they say, every nose is a world; today when I wore it, people told me I smelled of grape but that it smelled very nice

When I bought and tried it, I thought I had wasted my money, but the other day when I used it again, I loved it; now I’m addicted to this rich perfume. I smell the passion fruit very strongly; I love the Halloween Shot!!!
La boricua
My son gifted it to me early for my birthday. I heard wonderful things about it and the truth is, it reminds me of another perfume but I can’t recall which one. The opening is strong but over time it becomes more wearable. I find it somewhat boozy and a little sweet, just a little. I can’t distinguish the fruits they mention; I can only say it’s a good scent
Milaaah123456789
I thought I was going to go mad like many others, but no… I barely sense the caramel; the vanilla is very present.
Artemisa33
I don’t know why everyone says it smells sweet. I detect nothing of the sort; instead, I get violets, pineapple, and a hint of Daikiri. It doesn’t bother me, but I was expecting something more gourmand and creamy.
Kvrito
I bought it blind based on the packaging and fell in love. It’s a very sweet, rich fragrance with an intense, sensual aroma. Upon application, you first feel the acidity of the pineapple and passion fruit, then the warmth of the Daikiri, and finally, once it settles, hazelnut, caramel, and vanilla take over. The floral notes are barely noticeable. It’s exquisite for cold days or night dates if you’re looking to conquer.
Roxxy32
I can’t stand it. No matter how hard I try to wear it, I simply cannot. For my taste, it’s too heavy; I don’t like perfumes where violet dominates, and here it stands out too much. It’s purely for autumn and winter.
Xav
The opening smells like artificial liquor, coming with a fruity touch, and in the dry down, caramel and violet settle in, which improves the experience somewhat. It has good longevity and price, but the scent quality isn’t quite the same. Perhaps it’s only suitable for everyday wear.
Maymay
For the price, it’s very good. It’s sweet but has character, a very dark character. It makes me want to wear it on a cool night with dark lipstick and a sensual dress. It’s not for basic tastes. Perfect for autumn and winter.
GABRIELGR
Does anyone know the production year of their Halloween Shot for women? I’m checking the batch code.
GraceM2019
Don’t hate me; I know there are many Shot fanatics and I’m jealous, but when I read the notes, it sounded perfect. After reading the reviews, I dared to buy it blind, but it didn’t work for me. I’ve given it several chances, but nothing has changed. All the notes blend together and my nose gets blocked. I perceive something like car air freshener; it’s clearly too much. I wouldn’t recommend it for blind buys, although the risk isn’t too high given the price. I just wanted to warn you, as I couldn’t find anyone else who had this experience, and surely others could fall into the same trap. I’m not saying it’s bad, just that it might not suit you.
Evelyn gallardo
It’s a special gourmand. It’s sweet, but that pineapple touch gives it a tropical air, like a night party on the beach. It has many layers and I love feeling each one; it never gets boring. In the opening, the fruits and Daikiri are noticeable, giving that sparkling beach sensation. Then it becomes sweeter as the heart notes quickly blend with the base notes, especially the caramel and patchouli, though the pineapple doesn’t leave. I could describe the stages, but I’d run out of words; it surprises me in a new way each time. I love it. It can get cloying, but it has excellent longevity, projection, and performance. The quality-to-price ratio is 10/10 and it’s usually accessible. Definitely an excellent option if you like sweet gourmands.
CYNTHIA1980
What a delightful perfume. It’s intense, bittersweet, and has a vibe similar to Petite Roble Noire. If you like that type, don’t miss out. It’s sensual and warm. The pineapple is the main note, but perfectly coordinated with hazelnut, caramel, and vanilla, which give it sweetness. Add the sparkling touch of passion fruit and the result is exceptional.
Gatuna76
I bought it because of the reviews and I agree with all of them; I loved it. It has a long-lasting trail, sweet but not cloying. I’m delighted with my new acquisition.
