Alhambra Minerva Eau de Parfum is an exquisite, charming, and exceptionally feminine composition that captivates the heart with its luxurious blend of fruity, floral, and fresh accords. The remarkable scent is associated with spring, lifting spirits and filling the heart with joy. Minerva is a seductive beauty, encompassing mystery and mystique, creamy softness, and a spicy edge. It embodies the character of a woman who knows how to be both delicate and strong, confident, and independent.
The olfactory pyramid of Alhambra Minerva Eau de Parfum:
Top notes of the aromatic composition impress with the bright sound of crisp, bitter-green bergamot combined with the chords of the exotic sweetness of juicy lychee, the spring freshness of rhubarb, and the intense sweet-bitter spiciness of nutmeg.
Middle notes form the exquisite "heart" of the fragrance with the indescribable beauty of a bouquet of white lilies of the valley, honeyed peonies, and Turkish roses. The seductive and mysterious floral mist softly envelops the body, giving the composition a special depth and charm.
Base notes captivate with the sweet sound of vanilla and sensual musk, the warmth of noble wood, and the mysterious tones of cool lavender. The exquisite creamy trail sounds soft and very attractive.
And I also forgot to mention that over time they become even more similar (I even bought the Memo bottle). And I bought Rose Petals from Alhambra (it's in the style of Tom Ford) and I liked it too - I put it to stand.
I bought this for myself as a gift. The fragrance is long-lasting and subtle, not overpowering. The trail it leaves is not very long, but still long-lasting. The delivery was excellent.
A wonderful scent for its price. At the beginning, there are slight notes of bergamot bitterness and nutmeg. Then, woody notes with vanilla come through. I don't feel the floral notes much. After a few hours, a creamy and delicate touch is felt on the skin. It's not very similar to Marfa (I have an original decant) but it goes in the same direction. I liked it, considering the price and the beautiful packaging and bottle.
