Una by Natura

I first met this fragrance years ago and it lasted forever. I bought it again today, but it’s the Argentine version, and the longevity was disappointing; after two hours it was already skin scent. It also smells very similar to Humor 5, just with a stronger cherry note. I don’t feel the oriental or intense vibe the box promises, nor do I detect vanilla or peach; it’s simply elegant cherry.

A sweet aroma without being cloying, very sophisticated. On my skin, vanilla and peach come through more. I highly recommend it because it has good longevity.

So, it resembles L’Amour but it’s not a dupe. This one is notably sweeter; L’Amour has a citrusy and acidic opening from the grapefruit, whereas Una has a sweet citrus note from the mandarin and peach appears almost immediately, flooding the fragrance. You don’t get peach in L’Amour, but here you do, and a lot, sometimes overwhelming. The rose is very shy, barely making an appearance. On my skin, it develops as a blend of lily of the valley and sweet vanilla, almost like vanilla ice cream with praline: very sweet, leaning gourmand but not quite. Longevity and projection are average; I have to spray many times to reach six hours and feel it at hand-shake distance, and that’s in summer, plus fragrances don’t usually last well on me. On the skin, however, it is definitely present. Personally, L’Amour is my favourite for spring/summer and Una Classic for autumn/winter if you want to keep that citrus-fruit-floral-sweet scheme year-round. If you’re looking for an L’Amour dupe, you won’t find it in Una Classic, but rather a sweeter and more ‘serious’ version, ideal for cooler days. Edit: I’ve already finished the first bottle and will definitely repurchase when I find it on offer.

Sophisticated, romantic and feminine, with a sweet touch. ✨ At first, it smells of peach that is enchanting, then it moves to a well-crafted praline and vanilla; it seems like a delicate Ferrero Rocher (more peach and white flowers). It doesn’t smell like Natura. It’s beautiful; it brings me happiness because it’s the replacement for my teenage favourite, the discontinued ‘Dreaming’ by Tommy Hilfiger. I love that it’s sweet but clean, without musk, roses or vintage notes that I hate; I see it as cheerful. With 10 sprays: it lasted six hours with medium projection. I felt wrapped all afternoon without being overwhelming.

SWEET AND LONG-LASTING. Although many wouldn’t choose it for summer, on my skin the opening notes are very prominent peach and gooseberry; after an hour, the magnolia and vanilla are felt, leaving it sweet and floral. If it’s not extremely hot, it suits me all year round. It’s not a stately or very formal scent; the sweetness makes it more romantic. It has good projection and longevity; if it lands on clothes, it will last for days. I have a blush too, but I prefer this one.

Definitely almost identical to Amor Amor, just softer.

Smells good; it’s identical to Cacharel’s Amor Amor, though the Una is sweeter and more intense. It suits me perfectly with its aroma. I was expecting something sweeter and more gourmand based on the notes, but the longevity is excellent. I find it very mature! Haha. Would I buy it again? No. I was hoping for something sweeter, cloying and gourmand. From the UNA line, I love UNA senses and UNA Blush; I can’t go without them.

Smells very lovely; it’s identical to Cacharel’s L’Amour, only the Una feels a bit sweeter and L’Amour a bit more citrusy. I must admit it’s not one of my favourites because I detect a lot of vanilla, but it smells very lovely. I would use it daily as it’s a scent that relaxes me.

Honestly, I don’t detect any peach or cherry; it’s just a fairly ordinary sweet scent. For a Natura with an exclusive perfumer, it’s a fragrance I’ve encountered in an Avon perfume before. To me, it’s overrated; it’s just a very common sweet scent.

I thought I wouldn’t like it as other UNA versions aren’t to my taste, but this fragrance has a special touch that I enjoy. It doesn’t overwhelm me but I like it; it’s a rich fragrance. I recommend ordering a sample before buying, but I think it’s the richest UNA fragrance for me so far.

On me, there’s no vanilla, no praline or ganache. It’s fruity, floral and woody, leaning towards sweet, but not cloying or gourmand. On me, it dries down like Flor do Luar. To be honest, I was disappointed; it’s not that it’s bad, but based on the reviews and notes, I expected something else. It has good longevity and sillage, better than the Cacharel or DKNY ones. I’ll use it for daily wear; it doesn’t seem suitable for special occasions or evening. I need to try it in summer.

My favourite from Natura: very sweet, vanilla dominates, yet blended it is elegant and sophisticated, nothing simple. Be careful not to overapply, it smells beastly and gave me a headache; a little goes a long way to wear it well. It is youthful, mysterious and sexy.

The one I bought has different notes: sweet almonds, praline, ganache, and floral nuances. Natura describes it as ‘intense sweetness’ and that’s how I feel it. I don’t perceive the floral notes, so for me, it’s a delicious dessert 🍮.

Sweet and elegant, with wonderful projection and longevity. I wear it daily in winter; an impeccable outing with pink pepper and citrus, base of an INN ABSOLUTE.

We tried to be friends but we just don’t fit; he asked for a chance to sweeten my days, but my nose, more citrusy, did not allow it; it is not you, it is me.
