We all know that EDTs are EDPs are quite expensive. Especially if you are buying a fragrance that is not made in India. That is the exact perception that we have in our minds, right? In most cases, it is true. However, I have come across a brand called Dorall Collection which hails from UAE or United Arab Emirates that offers perfumes at great prices. Yes, like I mentioned in the title you can get your hands on these fragrances from Dorall Collection at less than Rs. 300 depending on the discounts. The fragrance under microscope today is Golden Dew Intense for women and you will get all grounds covered in this review.
Packaging The packaging for this perfume is nice but it is quite similar to Gucci’s Guilty. If not entirely as this has a transparent bottle quite opposed to the opaque Gucci bottle, but the structure and look and feel is quite similar. However, I am not complaining as it is okay to get inspired and come out with a design of their own as this is not a straight copy. The lid is of good quality as decently weighted. The bottle is not flimsy in any way so yes, overall quite nice. I can rate a 7 out of 10 in this category. After all it is not an entirely original idea, right! Scent This is where the magic happens. Once you open the bottle and spritz in on your pulse points and body, you are engulfed in a fresh, floral, spicy, and strong fragrance. This being an intense version can come across as a bit excessive at first for people who have sensitive noses and experience headache. So, only if you are strong nosed, you will find this quite pleasurable. Having said that I can also say that the fragrances from Dorall Collection are strong but not as strong as Ajmal’s fragrances. Compared to Ajmal, they seem milder to my nose. The notes for this fragrance includes pink pepper at the top, geranium, peach, and lilac at the middle, and amber and patchouli at the base. With Patchouli as a base note, it is expected to be strong, but the pink pepper, peach, and lilac give it a different character. The concoction is quite good and am totally loving it. I can rate 8 out of 10 in this category. Longevity and Silage Being EDT, this lasts not more than 3-4 hours and in the first 2 hours, the silage is decent. After that it becomes a skin scent that you alone can smell. It will project again only after reapplication of the perfume, so you will have to carry this around. I would have rated average this category, but given the price point, I am ready to ignore that. After all there are a lot of expensive fragrances as well, which doesn’t project or last well. So, there is nothing to penalize this affordable fragrance in this category. So, I can rate 7 out of 10 in this category. Quantity and Price Point You don’t get various sizes in this to try out. Only 100ml is available which retails for Rs. 599. Yes, that is the marked price for this fragrance. When I bought it on Myntra, I paid Rs. 263, which was a whopping save. So, regardless of how many hours does it last on the skin or clothes, I am quite happy with this scent. After all, even fragrances from The Body Shop doesn’t last that long but it is their scent that drives people to buy their fragrances, even at the high prices at which they are offered. So, at this price, am not complaining at all. I give a 10 out of 10 in this category. Anybody can wear this and anybody can afford this. Final Thoughts If you are ready to try a fragrance that lasts decent, doesn’t burn a hole in your pocket, comes in a beautiful bottle, and makes you feel good, then you can try this. I liked this fragrance quite a lot, so can happily recommend it to everybody. |
