Best Ophidian Black Cherry by PARIS CORNER Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

Almaz, the Arabic word for diamonds, are renowned not only for their beauty, but also for their timelessness as they withstand millions of years of immense pressure in their formation. This EdP references the indestructible nature of diamonds with a powerful blackcurrant-led bouquet. Juiciness is enhanced with raspberry, while powdery heliotrope and musk add padding to the cushiony feel. The ambered base, redolent with vanilla and brown sugar, offsets blackcurrant’s tartness.
 
The jewelled bottle incorporates a poem composed by Elen Jeres Ayoub, portrayed in Eastern Kufic calligraphy. The words have been meticulously placed so that the vertical lines create eight zones on the bottle, representing the lunar phases in each lunar calendar month to represent the passage of time.

The seasons and their times
And pressures and their effects,
Bear Diamonds as their fruit.
-Elen Jeres Ayoub

Perfumer: Tomoo Inaba

Rich and gothic Moth starts with a heavy dose of dark spices to jolt your senses before settling into a dusting of honey-sweet rose and powdery florals. Slowly, it tests its wings, taking flight on an exotic journey of nagarmotha, guaiac wood and patchouli. Beneath it all lingers a smoky undertone that serves as a constant reminder to fluttering creatures of the danger in the tantalizing flame.

Hanamizake refers to drinking Japanese sake underneath the cherry blossom trees while petals slowly flutter into your cup. The aroma of cherry blossoms and ginjo sake dances tipsily into the last musk note, summoning this serene hanami (cherry blossom viewing) experience.

The same perfume is available in the regular/standard packaging: Cockatiel.

Perfumer: Sven Pritzkoleit

Australian spring arrives, bearing dazzling frocks of yellow blossoms to dress the bare golden wattle trees. Clouds of sweet honeyed fragrance, caught upon the breeze, carry an invitation inland, where a flock of cockatiels happily take up the celebration. Emerging from dusty nests, the birds are ready to preen and prance. On a wobbly stage of branches, vivid crests bop to the rhythm of their joyous songs. After a final encore, the flock takes flight. Alighting in a nearby field they share a delightful brunch, buzzing with the thrill of their stunning recital.

Zoologist Cockatiel exudes joy. A sunny burst of yellow acacia offers a friendly welcome. Dots of raspberry and tart rhubarb suggest a hint of mischief, like a pair of rosy cheeks beneath a golden plume. Finally, soft notes of musk and vanilla enfold the vibrant Cockatiel, like downy feathers cushioning the brashness of this cheeky bird.

Zoologist Cockatiel was formerly known as “Powder and Dust”, a perfume created by Sven Pritzkoleit, published under his own brand, SP Parfums. The creative director of the scent was Yana Lysenko. This perfume won the 2019 Arts and Olfaction Awards under the Artisan category. In 2020, Sven closed his perfume business and sold the formula of Powder and Dust to Zoologist to continue its legacy.

When she was a young girl, Akro founder Anaïs Cresp asked her father, the master perfumer Olivier Cresp, to create a perfume just for her, one that nobody else in the world would have. Oliver set about creating a joyful scent for his daughter to carry through life. He combined notes of sage, bergamot, and raspberry, building a bright and vivid fragrance for any time, any place. Now Anaïs wants to share her secret stash of happiness with the world, so get ready to smile with Smile.

An explosive, colourful, unconventional twist on the juicy, fruity fragrance profile. Juice | Balanced & Expressive centers on succulent, vibrant fruits, paired with Bulgarian rose and fresh Cyclamen to add bloom and breath. Amberwood brings modernity and depth.

This is the Balanced & Expressive version of Juice, with a noticeable projection that’ll make a mark, not a scene. Also try Juice | Personal and Juice | Bold.

This is a more transparent, floral expression of Juice | Balanced. It's sheer and intimate, like a halo of fruity floral essence rather than an explosive blast. The silken woods and watery jasmine soften the juicy ripeness of the fruits. Musk adds a cozy airiness that's both comforting and sensual." — perfumer Nathalie Benareau

This is the Personal version of Juice, for those who prefer a subtle, intimately-projecting fragrance that invites closeness. Also try Juice | Balanced & Expressive and Juice | Bold.

Ramune is a traditional Japanese soda pop sold in a pale blue glass bottle sealed with a marble. The drink is evocative of Japanese summer festivals, carefree times illuminated by dreamy paper lanterns. This eau de parfum starts with the clear notes of lemon, aldehydes and mint, followed by gentle rose, muguet and magnolia, before drifting into musk and vanilla.

You emerge from a Siberian pine forest to discover a treat: ripe raspberries growing in abundance in the brambles. In one of those sacred moments of serendipity, the smell of the rose you’re playfully wearing as a boutonnière swirls in the air with the snap of the evergreen trees and the tart syrup-sweetness of the raspberries.

Conjuring the Garden of Eden by way of a supernatural green vanilla. A scent so sylvan it will feel as if you have wrapped yourself in verdant ivy. Gardenia deepens the green tones as tomato leaves bring a rich earthyness. Tonka beans are warm and creamy while red juicy raspberry contrasts for a vibrant edge.
