Dolma Perfumes Arvostelua 3

Just placed my third order direct from Dolma, having previously bought their products via other organisations. I started with the Discovery Sets, then bought 10ml sizes of the scents that stood out, followed by 50ml sizes of my most-used - so far that's Kwame, First Rain, Light Bloom, Sun Joy and Anahita. (I'd also add Sirius to the list, but it's out of stock!) I'm autistic and usually react quite vehemently to smells in general, so for me to find half a dozen completely different fragrances that I LOVE and can actually wear is unprecedented! The range has A LOT of variety and there's really something for everyone, every mood and every occasion. I'd say that Dolma fragrances absolutely hold their own against more mainstream (and unethical) brands. The customer service is great, too!

I ordered the bundle of 5 samples with the Black Friday Discounts. I liked the ethics of the company, and they seemed to have quite a lot of choice. The samples were well-packed, and arrived within a handful of days.

Unfortunately, I found all of the samples to have this pronounced overtone that reminded me of cheap bubble bath, and smelt quite nauseating. It reduces somewhat after around 10-20mins, but all of the scents overall are akin to cheap bath products. I have no idea what it is that causes this, but I've never smelt anything like it in perfumes, and it is incredibly unappealing. I also can't smell any of the specific notes they list, just cheap bubble bath across the board. Definitely not the one.

Just started to use my discovery set of perfumes. Liking every one I've tried, although favourite so far is probably Sun Joy. Had a query about fragrance strength and received a quick and helpful response. Great to be able to support a UK based company. Thank you Dolma Perfumes. 🙂
