Bad Bitch
Julianna's Perfumes (2020)

Pretty. Very sharp floral. Easy to overspray. Can bother my sinuses so I have to pass on getting a bottle

This fragrance is “inspired by” Armani Privè Rouge Malachite which happens to be one of my top favorites. This smells so similar to RM, that I would say it’s a 95-97% match. And it’s even closer once you get it on your skin. It really does realistically capture the much more expensive fragrance, and now that RM is discontinued, I’m glad to have something that I can reach for to preserve what I have of RM. the longevity of this perfume is eternal. On me, it projects for around 6 hrs and then settles into a skin scent after that which lasts another 5 or 6 hours. It does not have a generic quality to it that you may expect for the price, and all in all, I think this is a great one. I definitely recommend, especially if you find that you missed your opportunity to own or smell Rouge Malachite. This is a sophisticated warm floral, with a lot of Tuberose, yet it’s not the type of Tuberose that gets really heavy and thick. It has a slightly balmy quality to it, and beachyness without having that dose of coconut (not that there’s anything wrong with coconut). It’s tropical but more evening like. I wear it daytime too, but when I close my eyes, I picture a beautiful silk slip dress with thin straps, and skin glistening ever so slightly in the heat while walking barefoot in the sands to a romantic candlelit dinner on the beach for two with the waves crashing in the background and salt in the air.
