Jesus del Pozo Escencia de Duende Edt. en Spray de 100 ml. VINTAGE

Essencia de Duende is a lovely, light scent: lemon-y and floral combined. It's perfect for day wear, and when you want a light yet noticable scent. It is not at all overpowering, yet everyone who comes close to me notices when I wear it. I also like the fact that it's affordable! I have worn it for three years and it never fails to garner at least one compliment per week. It's a fine summer perfume but can be worn year round because it's not as light as some summer scents - it has heart & depth in its makeup. A really fine perfume at an affordable price.

This is an excellent fragrence for people who don't like strong scents. I'm very picky when it comes to perfumes. Most smell cheap or too sweet or so strong it triggers my asthma. Duende is light, clean, and has sort of floral and citrus tones. I've had many compliments on it. I recommend trying it at your local department store. Fragrences smell a bit different on different people so wear it for a couple hours and if you like it, compare the store's price to Amazon's.

love it

I am a self-proclaimed perfume addict and have experienced my fair share of perfumes ever since I can remember. No matter how many I buy I always seem to come back to this scent. It's very soft and clean. I always get tons of compliments and people are drawn to this amazing scent. My boyfriend years ago described it as mesmerising. With so many expensive perfumes on the market it's great to find such a great yet affordable fragrance to always keep as part of my collection.

This is actually my favorite scent. I LOVE essence of Duende (which is SO much better and completely different from Duende)...HOWEVER...When I would purchase this it was about $35-40 (and that was for the SUPER LARGE bottle). No way would I purchase it for over $100, let alone the prices I'm seeing now - I assume they stopped making it because no perfume is worth almost $200 - 3 stars may be too much - good product but horrible price. Why is anyone still purchasing this?

NOT the real Essencia de Duende. The real Essencia de Duende is a fresh fragrance.. a little spicy, a little citrusy. I have used it for many years. First I sprayed the new on one wrist and the old on the other wrist. Immediately I noticed there was no kick to the new perfume. it was not spicy or fresh. The next morning the scent of the old was still fresh and strong. The new had completely disappeared. Next I took a card and sprayed my old Essencia de Duende and the new on another card. The new does not smell at all spicy citrusy or fresh. it smells first like alcohol and then like sugar water and has no lasting fragrance at all. 24 hours later the old Essencia de Duende still smelled fresh & spicy and had a strong fragrance. I give the authentic Essencia de Duende five stars. But this fake Essencia de Duende gets zero stars..though I had to give one to give a rating. This is very disappointing. I never had this problem buying the perfume on Amazon before this purchase. BTW... I bought this on Amazon from One Proud Fan. I have contacted the perfume company to find a reputable and authentic source of this perfume.

My husband found this for me 13-15 years ago, at a perfume shop . Gifted it to me at Christmas and I've never worn anything else. Everyone notices it and I'm constantly asked what I'm wearing. It has become me. So much so I get jealous when people want the name. I'm surprised at some of the descriptions of its scent.It's not floral at all. Nor is it fruity. It's lite in a sense that it's never over powering , never sweet. It's husky and heady yet fresh . It's very alluring and draws the senses. It's warm and comforting. Yet apropriat year round.It's true that your own body chemicals change the scent. I've smelled it on others and it does NOT smell the same.So keep that in mind. Look over the "notes" ( this is to refer to ingredients) to see if these are things you are normally drawn to. Will help you to know if this perfume is worth a try.A side note. I am a Massage Therapist. Fragrance is a very important aspect in my business. In fact the lack of is usually the way to go because scent effects everyone differently. Allergies, headaches, stomachs upset are all common reactions to perfumes.I wear "mine" because as I said it's part of me. All my clients love it. Described like the smell of wood or leather or a wild meadow. Natural and perfect. Non offensive.

Admittedly this was for me and not my girlfriend, but she asked for it, so she got it. That's how it works, right? Nice classic scent and chances are, if you're coming here to find a perfume, you already know what you're looking for considering Amazon doesn't currently offer SMELL-o-VISION.
