Musím se přiznat, že jsem o společnosti Jusbox slyšela poprvé, když mi jejich nový parfém přistál ve schránce v PR balíčku (díky Profile PR). Jak víte, začala jsem tuhle novou blogovou cestu světem parfémů a navíc naprosto zbožňuji jejich focení, a tak si asi dokážete představit, jak moc mě tahle zásilka nadchla.
I have to admit that I never heard of a company called Jusbox until their brand new perfume arrived in my letterbox in a PR box (thank you Profile PR). As you know I started this whole perfume series on my blog and I am obsessed with taking pictures of perfumes so I was pretty excited about getting this fragrance.
Parfém Siren & Sailors od značky Jusbox se začal prodávat v roce 2019 a byl inspirován zpěvačkou Amy Winehouse. Ostatně všechny parfémy italské značky Jusbox jsou inspirovány hudbou, a tak není divu, že byl jejich třináctý parfém věnován takové ikoně jako je právě Amy.
The Siren & Sailors from Jusbox was released this year (2019) and it was inspired by Amy Winehouse. Actually, all of the thirteen perfumes made by the Italian company called Jusbox are inspired by music and the thirteenth one is dedicated to this iconic singer.
Hlava: Bergamot, broskev, vonokvětka
Srdce: Růže, rum, whiskey
Základ: Pačuli, vanilka, semiš a pižmo
Top Notes: Bergamot, Peach, Osmanthus
Heart Notes: Rose essential LMR, Rum (you can really smell the rum in it), Whiskey Accord
Base Notes: Patchouli, Vanilla, Suede, Musk
The scent is very extraordinary and it smells feminine(rose) with a hint of liquor to me. I think people call this combination oriental (I saw this word referring to this perfume). At the start, it comes as a fruity and sweet scent but then it transfers into a rich and musky perfume that lasts for ages.
Siren & Sailors comes in a simple and somewhat practical 78ml bottle with a gorgeous vinyl lid. It costs £140 which is very expensive (at least to me) and I see it as a niche perfume for collectors.
My thoughts: For me, this perfume is the wayyyy too sweet and heavy. As much as I like sweet and heavier perfumes as well, there is a very fine line that cannot be crossed when it comes to my perfumes. The perfume Siren & Sailors lasts for ages which is something I appreciate but I prefer perfumes with lighter tones. I, however, LOVE the design. It's simple, yet classy and on point with the theme (the vinyl lid gets me every time I look at it), although the bottle is pretty heavy - you could literally hurt someone with it. So overall, I think it is a great extraordinary perfume but the smell is just not for me. It's not like I would never ever wear it but it would not be my first choice.
Available from Selfridges here.
To chápu, když tenhle se fotí sám :-)

Ty jo, v Čechách ten parfém nemůžu nikde najít :/ ale možná ho dám do soutěže, protože mám parfémů až až a tenhle mi až tak nesedí :)
DeleteI really like sweet scents but its a shame that it's too heavy- I adore the packaging but haven't seen this around yet- I'll have to keep an eye out and give it a sniff haha.

Oooh, I love the vibes of the Jusbox perfume! I love their scent selection. Even though it was too sweet, at least it'll be good for someone who prefers that. I know I have the same line for heavier perfume. Thanks for sharing!
