Exploring the latest fragrances from Liis was an absolute delight. Their new trio—Struck Of True Minds, In This World, and Choux Choux—brings something for everyone, from bold sophistication to playful charm. Each perfume tells a unique story and offers a sensory experience that lingers beautifully. As someone who loves versatile fragrances, I was intrigued by their unisex appeal and the thoughtful composition of notes. Let me take you through my experience with each of these captivating scents, highlighting how they unfolded on my skin and left an impression that’s hard to forget.
Of True Minds: A Warm Embrace with a Bold Edge
Of True Minds felt like a warm embrace with its rich amber and woody accords. On my skin, the mix of amaretto, suede, and nutmeg stood out, creating a sophisticated and slightly astringent vibe. I caught a hint of booze and smoke, but it never felt cloying—just cozy and inviting. The lasting power was impressive, with the scent lingering for eight hours. It’s strong yet balanced, perfect for those who appreciate a fragrance that makes a statement without overwhelming. I found it to be a versatile option for cooler evenings or intimate gatherings.
Nature’s Serenity in a Bottle: In This World
In This World began as a refreshing, spa-like escape with eucalyptus and blood orange taking center stage. Its woody and aromatic character felt grounding, but as the fragrance developed, the fig added a soft sweetness that transitioned into a surprising coconut-like finish. On me, it lasted about six hours, leaving a trail that was subtle yet memorable. This perfume felt ideal for crisp, sunny days when you want to feel invigorated and connected to nature. It’s a breath of fresh air in a bottle—clean, uplifting, and incredibly wearable for everyday occasions.
Choux Choux: A Playful Dance of Sweetness and Light
Choux Choux charmed me with its airy sweetness and bright citrus opening. The lemon zest and whipped cream gave it an uplifting start that wasn’t overly gourmand, which I loved. As it dried down, the creamy caramel and vanilla notes became more prominent, balanced by a touch of cocoa and sandalwood for depth. It stayed soft and light on my skin for six hours, making it perfect for casual, carefree days. If you enjoy fragrances that feel comforting without being overly sugary, Choux Choux is a delightful choice with just the right amount of playfulness.
Liis has truly outdone themselves with these three new fragrances, each offering something distinct and enchanting. Whether you’re drawn to the bold warmth of Struck Of True Minds, the refreshing clarity of In This World, or the light-hearted charm of Choux Choux, there’s a scent here to match any mood or occasion. I loved how these perfumes felt modern and versatile, each leaving a unique impression on my skin.
