In a nutshell
Description & review snapshotRed Pearl is a sweet, powdery floral oriental with a distinctly late 1990s feel. Passionfruit, black currant and violet give the opening a soft fruity gloss, then tuberose, rose and jasmine move in before a warm vanilla, amber and praline base takes over. It often reads rich, nostalgic and feminine, but not universall…
Reviews →Il Uva reads as a bright, woody-spicy unisex scent built around tart citrus, rhubarb, and black currant over a warmer floral-oud heart. The opening should feel crisp and slightly sharp, then soften into rose, violet, spice, and smooth woods with amber, sandalwood, and tonka giving the dry-down a gentler finish.
