Butterfly effect gives wings
I discovered Papilefiko by chance during my trip to Dubai and since then it has accompanied me on hot days.
Another masterpiece from the hands of Dominique Ropion.
Anyone who knows his creations knows that it is in a league of its own in terms of quality and this is no different here.
Wonderful cardamom accords paired with a light effervescence and picturesque, yet quite gentle, by no means feminine, flowers. Rounded off with a cheeky, green, slightly creamy balsamic note.
The perfect daily companion for warmer days.
Rather masculine for me, but who am I to judge? The person has to fit, not the gender.
Light spice, refreshing appearance.
Drydown beautifully comprehensive. A fragrance to feel good. Liberating like wings.

Longevity makes a good impression, as usual from Nishane.
Sillage initially quite opulent, then decreases somewhat over time, but remains perceptible for a long time.

I can only warmly recommend a test sniff.

A fragrance that makes you feel good
Papilefiko is a fragrance to relax and feel good.
This pleasant balsamic note is really beautifully crafted.
In addition, pleasant lavender, a slight freshness, a pleasant sweetness, slightly green and subtly resinous/vanilla due to the balsamic flavor.

The fragrance starts slightly fresh, greenish and with a subtle spiciness.
In my opinion, the pleasant resinous-balsamic flair with a vanilla touch is added relatively quickly.

So far, all Nishane fragrances have projected well on me.
The Papilefiko is the first one that is a little more difficult on my skin and comes across a little more shy. But that is by no means a bad thing.
Despite this, the durability is good.

In addition, this fragrance is definitely unisex wearable! Feel free to test it out.
It's really super pleasant!

Butterflies in the stomach
Such a day full of surprise needs no EssenceVitae. Or rather: no Parfumina. Since woman already needs a little love, a little attention or just a fragrance.
A fragrance like Papilefiko , which gently caresses your soul, soothes your heart with lavender. Am immersed in the sea of flowers to let go, to be "I". A fir balm for the mind, with spices as an ingredient to more happiness and relaxation.

That evening, the fragrance was the revelation for me:
"Don't let your glow be taken away just because it blinds others".

Thank you for letting me test the fragrance.

Papilefiko: according to the motto "Schmetterlinkgseffekt" unpredictable can do a lot! Completely underrated!
I could now but some fragrances from the Time Capsule Collection of Nishane test (Papilefiko, Tero, Kredo etc.) and must say that this line is massively underrated! They are really beautiful and special fragrances, each with its own character! I had little expected and was extremely positively surprised; completely in line with the motto "butterfly effect" of the fragrance!

About the Papilefiko is talked far too little and this is a real hidden gem from my point of view. Why?

- The opening is fresh-sweet supported by citrus notes and a good dose of cardamom and coriander. I did not notice great, but mentioned by colleagues, comes out a certain similarity to Blazing Sam. Yes, agree with that - but the cardamom combined with the citrus is far more unique and special from my perspective! Moreover, the Papilefiko is far more potent in both domains; durability and sillage compared to the Blazing Sam.

- After that, lavender, a slight jasmine note poke in and cross over into a cardamom-fir balsam base; a slightly sweet, tart-spicy drydown that lasts a really long time and is perceived very positively by the environment, an absolute compliment getter!

The fragrance develops really nicely and has a great depth and unfortunately I do not understand why this flies so under the radar! I think that this fragrance would like some yet extremely!

After several wears, the scent mainly has vibes of sweetened fougere. Think Layton/DesirToxic + Apex. Spring/fall, masculine. Performs okay.

Reminds me of something from Penhaligon's Trade Routes collection (Halfeti Leather maybe?), but done better. Spices and resins abound!

Lots of cardamom and artemesia. Has a profile that I've smelt a lot before, but perhaps less screechy and synthetic than most.

VERY similar to Amouge’s “Boundless” to my nose.
