Here's a coherent English translation of the product review:
"The perfume can be summed up in one word: Bentley! It exudes luxury and quality. The only downside is the price, and there's no way to verify the batch code. Although everything I've bought from Make Up has always been authentic, the box and pouch for this one look different from what I've seen in YouTube reviews. However, it feels 100% genuine."
The fragrance is absolutely amazing—fresh and long-lasting. ❤️ However, it's important not to overdo it; just a minimal amount is needed. If you do that, you'll definitely receive plenty of compliments and enjoy a pleasant scent trail. I'm speaking from personal experience. I hope everyone finds their perfect fragrance and enjoys using it!
Here's how the product review could be translated into English:
"This is how the package arrived for me. The protective seal on the packaging was torn off, and the bottle was dirty and smudged. I tried calling the customer service hotline to figure out why this happened and what to do, but no one answered. In the end, I picked up the package and now have many questions. Is this the original perfume, or did the previous recipient (who made it dirty) switch it out? I won't be ordering from you again."
This fragrance embodies the scent of cleanliness, glossy magazines, unlike any other perfume out there. It is simply incredible, a unique blend that exudes a sense of pure elegance. The vanilla note in this perfume is absolutely delightful.
My love is enchanting! You must spread it on yourself and give it a try. It's not for everyone. But those who will love it, it will last forever. And yes! There are no surgeries or morgues, heal your nose!
Perfume bomb! I am ecstatic. Finally, I have found something new that I cannot go back to my old, beloved scents. Even strangers are amazed!
This is undoubtedly a complex and sharp fragrance that you will notice and feel on every skin. Speaking of the smell and how it smells, imagine that you are melting wax in a wax warmer and at the moment when it is almost melted, a certain scent starts to come through, accompanied by a citrus note, but more like a detergent, and then a faded smell of iodine. Together, this combination creates a scent of cleanliness, simplicity, sometimes roughness, and superficiality. Specifically for enthusiasts of sharp and "superficial" fragrances. I deducted one star only because I physically cannot tolerate it on myself, the smell is too overpowering. But overall, it is very interesting.
I disagree with the comments about the hospital and so on... and the fact that it is masculine.
Perhaps you haven't matured enough for this scent, the section with the smell of gum is somewhere else.
Do you want to know how it smells: luxury... success... power... sex? Then go for this perfume.
I received this fragrance as a gift. To me, it truly resembles a dental office, a hospital, iodine. In my opinion, it is not suitable for women at all.
I can't help but be amazed by it, it's like an orgasm! I used to be indifferent to all perfumes, but this one... well, it just took my sense of smell's virginity! Ladies, this is like having sex in Cuba! ❤️
I, in general, do not understand women's reviews. It is written as unisex. However, for me, it is not a feminine scent. In my understanding, it is meant for women only in the sense of inhaling it from a loved one. It is the smell of a successful, confident man with some notes of pepper, cedar, sandalwood, and expensive cars. This scent is not for boys, but for men who have already achieved something. It has a very long-lasting sillage. It stays on clothes for up to 4 days. I step into the elevator and already understand that my man was here. From the bottle, I have only used a third in 2 years. Therefore, it is worth the price in terms of quality. It is niche. You will never mistake it for another. However, I emphasize once again that I do not see it as suitable for women.
So, I tested the popular Ganymede, gave myself two days to gather my thoughts and impressions, and here's my conclusion: it's definitely not a classic feminine perfume, the scent is very complex for young and light-hearted girls. It won't suit girls under 30, those who are cheerful and Barbie-like... it would create a dissonance in meaning. This fragrance is unisex, and that says a lot. It's the first fragrance that I can call lively, flexible, ever-changing, and possessing an artificial but intelligent quality. It's a mysterious fragrance that plays a game with you, asking "guess what you'll smell like in a minute". Yes, it's definitely a perfume compilation, shamelessly using quotes from the most popular fragrances of recent years. But they are so masterfully intertwined into something unique that you realize - you've never heard anything like it before, or maybe you have, but not like this...
P.S. Despite Ganymede being a purely unisex fragrance, in my opinion, it will appear more sensual, prestigious, and winning on men. It's a fragrance of the future, where the differences between yin and yang, man and woman... good and evil are blurred.
The ozone mineral detergent and clean! This is an amazing thing, if, of course, you bought the original 💯 percent. For those who write about it being like a hospital, I congratulate you; most likely, you have a fake because this scent is very popular now, and naturally, there are many fakes of it. The scent itself is intriguing and magically attractive. It truly feels like a guest from the future...
I received this as a gift and gave it to a friend who is a talented plastic surgeon. It has a distinct smell of iodine, bandages, and a hospital, which is quite interesting.
This fragrance smells like diamonds in cold platinum. It has the captivating aroma of Ganymede. ❤️
I purchased it from a different place, but it smells like a dental office.
This fragrance is quite unique. Its pyramid is intriguing 🤗 It lasts for 8 hours, which is very satisfying.
This fragrance is absolutely stunning, it is simply incredible!
How do you ladies wear it? It's just a waste of money 🤯 I simply can't stand it, it literally smells like burnt rubber and iodine as if I'm in a hospital.
I bought a 30ml bottle here after familiarizing myself with a similar perfume at a fragrance counter. I assumed that I would be able to get a rough idea of what it was like and form an impression. If I hadn't regretted spending the money and opted for an original sample, I would have ordered 100ml right away. The scent is mysterious, perhaps slightly reminiscent of iodine, but believe me, it doesn't repel at all, and it is so fleeting that you don't even have time to analyze it. I have come to the conclusion that associations with leather boots and burnt rubber with Vishnevsky ointment come from the consumers of fragrances from plastic 5-liter canisters with a specific number. It is very long-lasting, multi-faceted, sometimes disappearing and then reappearing, mesmerizing and attracting attention, and it sounds expensive. If you're afraid of medicine, don't worry, it won't hurt. I recognize it on people as both the original and a rough replica.
Terrible scent!!! It feels like I applied automotive grease... suffocating and disgustingly bitter, to the point of nausea... it's giving me a splitting headache... I can hardly wait to get home... The only upside is its longevity.
If we talk about this perfume, it is wonderful! Everyone has different tastes and perceptions, and that's completely normal. Some people enjoy it, some don't even notice it, and some even hate this scent, and there are quite a few of them. I simply adore smelling it! It lifts my mood, energizes me, and charges me in a special way. It is clean, transparent, but at the same time, not at all light. I can hear some unusual notes in it, evoking associations with space, infinity, distant galaxies... But it also has a spiciness, very pleasant, warm, and long-lasting on the skin. It is diverse, and it is beautiful!
This is my third attempt with samples. Perhaps, I am ready to commit to it.
P.S. This has nothing to do with the perfume itself, and it is not a complaint, but rather a question. How could there be different amounts of perfume in the branded samples? I have two options: either it is not a branded sample, and MakeUp produces imitations (although it is unlikely). And the other option is that someone also really likes this perfume and uses their position to slightly ruin the mood of customers. Take a look.
I got a sample of this fragrance. I'm glad I didn't buy the full-sized bottle. It smells like a dentist's office, and both my husband and I don't like it. However, the actual perfume itself is of very good quality, although the scent is overpowering for half a day.
I tried a sample of this product and now I dream of getting the full size because it has a luxurious scent that is hard to compare with anything else. It has a slightly bitter and heavy note, but it's not overpowering for me. It doesn't smell like lotions or anything like that.
I purchased a replica product. To me, it doesn't smell like cherry, iodine, or dentistry. In the first few minutes, I can detect a fresh citrus scent. Then, like many others, I smell the scent of a glossy magazine, leather, metal, some slightly salty-bitter-tart mineral notes, and there are also flowers, although I couldn't quite identify which ones. Maybe it's immortelle, I used to smell it dried, but I have forgotten that scent. I read before that it is somewhat similar to Montale Soleil De Capri. I currently have both of them, so I compared them. They have a similar note, but they are different fragrances. Montale is more citrusy, bitter, salty, tangy, like the sea, and aromatic, but it's citrus from beginning to end. Ganymede is warmer, with citrus only in the beginning. It feels more feminine to me than Montale.
Definitely worth testing out first! I also notice a smell similar to ichthyol/Vishnevsky ointment. And even after two hours, the scent, although not as strong, has not changed on me. It's the same ichthyol ointment.
A fragrance that uplifts your mood, captivates, and enchants.
This fragrance is absolutely exquisite, it is simply incredible!
I bought it elsewhere, but this fragrance is simply incredible! I can't even describe it... Out of this world!
I am simply shocked, I couldn't imagine that such a scent could be reproduced! It's something on the verge of fantasy! Unbelievable!) It's as unusual as something I haven't experienced in a long time... It's like not just a perfume, but a mood, you wear it and you want to conquer new heights! The scent of a confident woman who doesn't rely on others but is playful and desired. I can't say that I see it on a man or a sweet, submissive girl, it's the scent of a woman who knows what she wants. There is absolutely nothing old or musty about it, it's like a magazine, a fresh glossy, fresh dollar bills, the scent of a new leather jacket with a hint of wood bark, flowers, musk, a scent but so fresh! Nothing sweet, everything is sexy but cold, I consider it a must-have for a business meeting or wherever you need to be composed, confident, make a statement, be strong and confident. Yes, this is the scent of strength, confidence, and sexiness!
Terrible scent. It smells like a mixture of Vishnevsky ointment and a pile of decaying autumn leaves.
I will leave a review, even though I didn't buy it here.
I don't know... I was advised to try it because it's trendy and since I loved Bakara, I thought this one would be just as good.
Unfortunately, I'm very disappointed because it smells on me like I just came from the dentist.
So, unfortunately...(( disappointed.
If you have tested it, I recommend the 30ml size. I believe it will last for a long time ;)
Definitely worth testing! For me, the smell of the cream is reminiscent of cherries, and my friend sitting next to me is enjoying it, saying it has a divine aroma. The scent is ambiguous, as I tried a sample. Perhaps it needs to be applied more generously. Fragrances are a very individual thing, as we all have different preferences for scents. It didn't work for me, even though I thought it would be amazing based on the reviews I read. I recommend testing samples or ordering decants.
For me, this fragrance reminds me of the smell of suede and a fresh glossy magazine. I don't use it often because not everyone around me can appreciate it, and sometimes it becomes tiresome to me as well. It gives off an unpleasant sour note on my skin. It's wearable, but not a "wow" factor for me. I find scents from brands like Byredo or Etat Libre d'Orange to be much more complex and multi-faceted, and they gather more compliments.
This product is very interesting and incredible.
The scent is not for everyone, just like the entire niche. I consider it to be a peculiar segment because they try to make fragrances unisex. However, they end up being neither here nor there, mostly a bit strange. Nonetheless, I continue to study aromas.
I think it may not be suitable for everyone, but on some people, it's simply wow. I really like it on my mom. It seems to me that it's for confident, self-sufficient, strong women. That's how I would describe it. It's too much on me, immediately wow, after half an hour it starts to irritate, after an hour I want to wash it off. And it will sound strange on young girls.
Amazing fragrance! Women claim they can smell bandages and dentistry, but there are no such notes here! In these perfumes, I can perceive the scent of mandarin, glossy magazines, very delicate suede, mineral and metallic notes! The fragrance sounds very beautiful and harmonious, with great longevity and a strong sillage, nothing sticks out. Furthermore, they also say it's not long-lasting - what a lie! You just need to let the fragrance settle for at least three weeks, or even better, a couple of months, and then it will delight you! In my opinion, this fragrance is more masculine, as it sounds better on men. Many thanks to Makeup for the original product!
The perfumes need to be "tried out", the first impression, yes, there is something medicinal, but... let it be on you, the smell is simply beautiful, then...
Incredible aroma!!!!!! Perfect for a confident woman. A multifaceted scent that envelops and entices.
I decided to try this fragrance, but I was shocked to find that it is exactly like Montale Soleil De Capri! These two scents are very similar to each other.
Oh...this fragrance is a galaxy among perfumes! It is designed for those with incredible taste and character. I can't imagine anyone not liking it...it captivates from the very first moment.
The best fragrance, I can't do without compliments, everyone asks what fragrance it is. This is the one for those who love a pure French scent. Those who write negative reviews, it's just a matter of taste. Some people like Empress, but I find it dreadful. I fell in love with this fragrance ❤️.
I love deep scents, unisex ones, and even some men's fragrances that I enjoy wearing. However, Ganymede is just killer for me. It's like Baccarat Rouge 540, but even more intense and unbearable. I don't know who it would complement... Only one friend in my circle, who works in a hospital, appreciated it, maybe because it reminds her of something familiar. Men, on the other hand, recoil from it. It's like coming out of a first aid station. Overall, it's definitely worth testing!
The fragrance is very controversial, it's for "those who like it" (that's why it's niche). It leans towards a masculine scent. Personally, I find it quite bitter and sharp, a bit aggressive. I would recommend it for older ladies, for winter, as an evening fragrance. Not for everyday wear. It's difficult to wear it daily. I will give it as a gift to my mom. Because I love fragrances that are about lightness, joy, love, laughter, excitement, and youth - but this one tells a different story.
Durable, but very smelly. My head was hurting all day and felt nauseous.
This is my love ❤️❤️❤️
This product has captured my heart and I am absolutely in love with it. It has become an essential part of my life, and I cannot imagine going a day without it. Its exceptional features and functionalities have truly won me over.
Every time I use this product, I am filled with joy and satisfaction. Its performance exceeds all my expectations, and it never fails to impress me. The quality is outstanding, and it is evident that great attention to detail has been put into its design.
Not only is this product visually appealing, but it is also incredibly practical. It has simplified my daily routine and made tasks much more efficient. Its user-friendly interface allows for effortless navigation, making it a pleasure to use.
Furthermore, the durability of this product is remarkable. It has proven to be reliable and long-lasting, ensuring that I can enjoy its benefits for a significant period of time. It is evident that the manufacturers have prioritized quality and durability.
In conclusion, this product has stolen my heart. Its outstanding performance, exceptional quality, and practicality make it a worthwhile investment. I highly recommend it to anyone in search of a reliable and efficient product. I am truly in love with it! ❤️❤️❤️
My love and admiration! I have been wearing it since the fragrance came out and I love it all year round. It is very long-lasting, so it doesn't fade away easily. It has an amazing scent! It represents the spirit of self-sufficiency and modernity. It's like the smell of the universe! For me, it serves as both a mood booster and an antidepressant.
Everyone experiences the scent differently... It is very similar to Alexandre.J Mandarine Sultane 1:1. I didn't really feel anything out of this world. There are much more vibrant and intense fragrances available.
For those who love the smell of iodine bandages...
Out of curiosity, I opened a bottle of iodine and the smell is practically the same as Ganymede.
In short, it will appeal to those who enjoy such scents.
I will also share my impressions, even though I didn't buy the sample here. Now I'm looking at the bottle. In my opinion, the perfume is more masculine, it has nothing to do with bakkarah. I was expecting another fashionable scent for the chosen few, but instead, I hear a magnificent chypre fragrance, with a hint of retro. The longevity and sillage are unmatched. The aroma is very sophisticated, it sounds expensive. I can't say anything about the notes, for me, it is a complete composition. The only thing that makes it unusual is its mineral quality. I feel it as a coolness, it's difficult to describe what it smells like, but definitely not like medicine. Just in case, I am a medical professional.
This fragrance is worth its price, it's very cool, long-lasting, and receives compliments. I will order more, thank you.
It really smells bad to me. It's very long-lasting, just one spray and the scent permeates everything. But it's definitely not my type at all.
This is my second time purchasing this perfume dupe, and its fragrance has captivated both me and my daughter. We are absolutely in love with it - it's luxurious, expensive-smelling, and long-lasting. If I could, I would buy a hundred bottles of it. It's just so incredibly beautiful and unlike anything else.
This niche fragrance is absolutely amazing! It lasts all day long.
It has a unique scent of iodine and gauze bandages, reminiscent of dental clinics and the smell of cleanliness. It's top-notch!
I have been contemplating for a while about what this product reminds me of. It's something in between Solidol, a mineral oil for lubricating mechanisms, and the scent of newly polished shoes. It doesn't reveal anything more, from beginning to end. It's a shame because I was expecting something incredible based on the reviews.
Today I received and couldn't resist testing it out. First off, it's a bandage. Within a couple of minutes, I started falling in love with it. I'll wait for it to fully settle and then write a new review. I got it to mend a tear in another place. I highly recommend it. At least give it a try.
Since the previous review got cut off, I'll add:
Right now, it's an absolute LOVE!!) The wardrobe niche is spacious, and my hand gravitates towards it - towards the handsome GANIMEDE!)
Oh, it's absolutely magnificent! Long-lasting, with a beautiful trail and magical scent! Definitely one of my favorites!
But, under no circumstances should you buy a niche fragrance without testing and wearing it first! Niche fragrances are not like luxury ones... luxury fragrances are designed for mass consumers and are easily understandable by everyone. Niche fragrances work differently.
I tried Ganymede four times - as soon as it was released, I got a decant because the initial descriptions and reviews were ambiguous.
During the first application, I was completely puzzled, shocked, and disgusted. It just didn't work for me. I tried to wash it off, but it clung to my skin and it was torture because it made me feel disgusted and nauseated.
