I couldn't agree with your opinion more. I own Cassiopea &Erba Pura. I had a sample of Kirke, and I felt the same way as you. Eruba Pura appealed to me more. You're also spot on with saying Erba Pura is a BEAST. It wafts around you ALL DAY long. The sillage is serious, and it's my most complemented fragrance. My coworkers can tell everywhere I've been in the building when I wear it.
Kirke is so loud on me and it lingers for days after I spray it. Kirke is a heavily complimented fragrance for me. Cassiopeia and Tabit is soft to me. I feel like they are more skin scent.
@@TheSantaMaria1 I need to give Tabit a real wear Lol. I just added it, Cassiopeia as well as Draco to the TT collection & now I’m stuck on Cassiopeia and Draco at the moment. I think I have 6 TT fragrances.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks Cassiopeia is the closest to Erba Pura! I believe i mentioned this resemblance in your Xerjoff video 😅 thank you for answering! I love your videos!
The only reference I have of Kirke is of a lady who always chokes everyone out at work. No one has been brave enough to say it to her face because we’re all cowards. 😅😂😂 Sadly she ‘s under the impression that people constantly asking what she’s wearing is flattery but in truth it’s because we all can’t breathe around her. I must confess, even though the screechiness the staying power is bewildering because she smells all day. I suppose that’s impressive. That said, I’ll stick with my bottle of Erba Pura. Which works beautifully on my husband and I.
I’m fresh out the shower and sprayed the Kirke on me as you’re speaking to me and you’re definitely right it melts into your skin. Andromeda on the other hand?!?!? Insane
I have been abusing my erba pura bottle! It’s an absolute love for me. And I layer it with lira so it’s a huge compliment getter. Kirke smelled dirty to me and I found the scent annoying after some time. It did get a few compliments but not enough for a full bottle. If you’re looking for a dupe jasmine wisp is really spot on.
I agree. There is something almost smelly (not in a pleasant way) about Kirke that bothers me that is absent in Erba Pura. I never expected to love Erba Pura as much as I do
I have Kirke and it smells amazing on me. The peach really pulls on my skin and it projects well. I always get compliments on it. I smelled Erba Pura in Neiman’s, so I’m interested in it too. Sounds like they’re different enough for me to own a bottle of it too. Thanks for your review. 😊
I am team Kirke. I’m saying that before I even watched. Erba Pura reminds me of Cassiopeia which I love love love ❤❤❤. I have Orza too ❤️❤️❤️. TT is just a fave. I find Erba Pura to be over the top LOUD too much for my vibe.. i have a big decant and I ain’t a huge fan. . Now I will watch your expert review.
Now that i finished watching your review I have to admit I paid only $104 for Kirke from Jomashop. I wouldn’t and didn’t pay full price, so I have to agree. IMO, Orza and Cassiopea are better picks. Yes PLEASE get a sample of Orza.
I have Cassiopea, Kirke, Dahab and Erba Pura. They all smell different enough to stand on their own. I also highly recommend Mula Mula and the extrait version if you really enjoy that scent profile. Yes, I also have both lol
New subbie. Watched couple of your videos and now am hooked. Your voice is so pleasant, love the jazz in the back and your great insights. These 2 perfumes took me 2 10ml decants to finally pull the plug for 50ml Erba Pura. Your comments are on point after a number of full wears with both. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great content.
Welcome to the channel new elf! 🧝♀️ 🧝♂️ i appreciate the kind words and Im happy the content brings you joy. Glad you sampled Kirke and Erba Pura! Congrats on getting Erba Pura!
I have both and they smell similar. However, the dry down is different. I get great projection and compliments when I wear both. Stricina also smells similar but after a few minutes they don’t smell exactly alike.
Agreed, they don’t smell the same. Totally different dry down & yes, Cassiopeia is more similar to Erba Pura. Kirke is actually louder on my skin & something in the dry down doesn’t work well with my chemistry. Definitely team Erba Pura, got my FB a few days ago.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Erba Pura! It was literally love at first smell for me. I had to have it. I don't own Kirke but I have sampled it. It's Erba Pura over Kirke for me!
This was my experience too- that EP is WAAAAYY closer to Cassiopeia than Kirke. In fact, I don’t think Kirke smells anything like EP at all. I have no idea where people got that comparison to be honest. I love EP but don’t find it to be beast on me. I get better performance with Cassiopeia. I dislike Kirke completely on my skin. It’s so sharp on me.
Ouuu I own Kirke and have Erba otw from ScentBox..excited for this one Santa! Andromeda smells like elevated skin to me but in the best way 🤣 I’ll have to pull it back out
@The Santa Maria I have to concur that Cassiopea is closer to Erba Pura. I have both and at first, I wasn’t gonna get both because I felt they were so similar, I didn’t NEED both but that didn’t last long 🤣🤣
Great review. I haven’t smelled Kirke . I own Erba Pura and it’s soooooo strong, I hardly wear it. She’s nice tho. However, I wear Jardin Exclusif by Mancera more. 😊 I think I need to pull her (Erba Pura) out since it’s been a minute since I’ve worn her.
Xerjoff is definitely loud lol love them. La capitale has me in a chokehold right now. I finally got a decant of Erba pura and it definitely smells closer to Cassiopeia but with much better longevity IMO and it will last longer since there is no need to overspray it lol a great buy and beautiful fragrance ❤
New elf here! I have binged watched your channel!!! Tiz is on sale on joma I can’t decide between Cassiopeia Kirke Draco detox or ALL 😭 I love the dedicated reviews. I also like the comparisons. Oh and what you are reaching for the most. Thank you for good works
Erba Pura definitely smells like Cassiopea / Kirke with more citrus. Kirke is loud compared to Cassiopea it kind of threw me off…but once it dried down I was like okay.
I should have listened to you... I bought into the hype of Kirke, plus the fact that it was USD$130 versus $232 for Erba Pura, so I pulled the trigger and I like it, but it didn't WOW me, ya know?! Both frags are only available online in NZ and the decants are super overprized and take longer to arrive than the scents... In contrast, I have the closest dupe to Erba Pura (Amber Oud Gold Edition), which is also fruity and heavy on the musk (musk creeps up on you) and I'm addicted to to that sweet/strong musk that lingers on hair and clothes BEYOND washing them! I've heard Erba Pura is stronger so I'm craving it bad!!! Sigh, you win some and lose some, right?!
@@TheSantaMaria1 girl, I already know you are going to be ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. I hope you have chosen your wedding fragrance. I know Head Elf got you Gardenia by Chanel. I have that one. It wears very very close to the skin and it disappears quickly on me. I am send much love and will be celebrating with you until my KING arrives.
Erba Pura, Kirke, and Strictnina smell very similar, I kept Strictnina and sold the other 2 . In my opinion if you have one of the 3 , you don’t need the other 2?!
Evening from Paris Santa ! Do you know the difference between erba pura from Xerjoff and erba pura magica from sospiro, ? A comparison would be great. I purchased Kirke and it is not long lasting enough. Longevity could be better. Smell good but not so unique. Take care
Oh Cool Paris! . The magica version is newer and apparently softer from what Ive been seeing in reviews. I personally have not smelled it and Im not currently interested in it.
