100% Patchouli, I’ve tested it and the person who wore it threw it away because they couldn’t handle the patchouli, but it has completely won me over, I’ve loved it! Power and class, I see it for winter and summer, day or night. I’ve worn it for 6 hours and I can still smell it strongly, with a lighter trail but still present. A delightful elegant scent, when it dries it smells of red fruit and lots of vanilla, an exquisite sweetness! The pineapple gives it freshness, I haven’t noticed the sandalwood yet.

Pachouli, full stop: the person who owned it threw it away because they couldn’t handle the pachouli, but I absolutely loved it. It has great power and elegance for all year round, day or night. I’ve worn it for six hours and it’s still potent; although the trail is more discreet, it’s noticeable everywhere. A delightful elegance; when it dries down it smells of red fruit and vanilla, an exquisite sweetness. The pineapple adds freshness, though I haven’t yet detected the sandalwood.

I bought it, I thought it was good quality. What I notice most is the sandalwood and the ylang-ylang, it lasts on my skin for just 3 hours. For those who want to know its scent: it smells identical to a perfume from the baby line, the golden one called ‘Baby Gold’. I don’t understand the similarity if I don’t see they share notes, only the sandalwood because the latter brings mango and this one has pineapple. Well, I think I’ll stick with the flanker that came out recently.

Bought the perfume and the quality is good; sandalwood and ylang-ylang really stand out. It lasts just three hours on my skin. It smells identical to ‘Bebe Gold’—I don’t understand the similarity if they only share sandalwood, as this one has mango while the other has pineapple. That’s why I’m sticking with the new flanker.

Nothing to object to from a quality brand: it smells delicious, is powerful and sensual. The patchouli isn’t overwhelming and the fruity sweetness gives it a youthful touch, similar to Lady Million. The best part: premium quality at a very economical price.
MARGARITA FRIAS SERRANO
For me, perfumes usually go unnoticed, but Possess seduces from the very first second. It doesn’t pass unnoticed and is perfect for making a statement. It smells incredible; my husband says it goes straight to the hypothalamus and awakens basic instincts.
CYNTHIA1980
A branded perfume never fails; it smells rich and powerful, very sensual. The pachouli isn’t heavy, the fruity touch makes it cheerful, it reminds me of Lady Million, and the best part is that it’s very affordable for the quality it offers.
Yasmin2015
Excellent quality and it lasts all day. Smells sweet, cheerful, and leaves a very elegant impression. When it dries down, it sounds almost like Nina Ricci’s Ricci Ricci, just without that rhubarb note.
Yasmin2015
Very good quality with otherworldly longevity. Sweet, cheerful and super formal. I don’t know why when it dries it smells exactly like the Ricci Ricci by Nina Ricci without that rhubarb note.
Angie Marren
A seductive delight, ideal for dates or special events. It has a sweet yet elegant balance without being intrusive; in fact, everyone asks what I’m wearing. Highly recommended!
July govea
Very delicious, elegant and feminine, though it is indeed potent. On my skin it becomes super sweet and, despite the intensity, it is totally recommended.

Zu smells like fresh air after the rain, with that freshly cut grass note that really makes you feel…
