Paul Valerie (French poet) said that women with bad spirits have no future. He was absolutely right. A good aroma, or to be more precise, correctly selected, plays the role of an ally, imperceptibly dressing us, thereby helping to charm others and create that unforgettable first impression!
Today we touch on one of the topics that many women love - fragrances. And we will talk about the Armel company , reviews about perfumes and a detailed description of the popular fragrances of this brand will be presented below. But first, let's figure out the secrets of using perfume.
10 rules for using perfume
- Drop by drop. Do not spill perfume, for a good disclosure of aroma it is enough to apply a couple of drops. Otherwise, even the most pleasant smell will annoy you.
- Proper application: elbow bends, behind the ears, a couple of drops on the wrist and slightly above the collarbone.
- Combination with fabrics. The smell quickly disappears if applied to silk and nylon. But such fabrics as wool, knitwear, ivy and fur products, not only hold the fragrance well, but also perfectly distribute it.
- Special events. If you were invited to a restaurant, do not sprinkle yourself abundantly with perfume, just apply a few drops on your neck and dress.
- Do not mix. Despite the abundance of aromas, not all of them are able to harmonize with each other. Remember that decorative cosmetics (shower gels, lipsticks, deodorants, etc.) also have their own smell.
- Compliance with seasonality. Use cold aromas in spring and summer, warm - in autumn and winter. At the very peak of the heat, it is better to give preference to fresh floral perfumes.
- The fragrance should be in harmony with the selected outfit. For example, you can’t suffocate under the jeans with sweet oriental perfumes. For a white dress, choose delicate aromas, and for a black one - more strict.
- Beware of pungent smells, especially when you are waiting for a long trip or a hot night on the dance floor.
- Consider the weather conditions, as they greatly change the aroma of perfume.
- Perfumes and clothes. If you want to add flavor along with yours, use a special dry perfume.
About perfumery
The French perfume "Armel" is a premium class product with a 20% concentration of natural oils. The official website says that the company is engaged in the production of a numbered collection of branded fragrances. How to understand this? This means that each fragrance produced is delivered according to the manufacturer-consumer scheme and is packaged in a unified box that shows the logo of the manufacturer Armelle ("Armel"). Customer reviews say about the acceptable cost of each flavor. How can quality perfumes have attractive prices?
Due to the fact that each perfume is in the same box and bottle, the buyer does not overpay for consumables, excluding the cost of wages to sales consultants, store rental and trade markup, which often reaches 400%.
Description of perfume "Armel"
The company was created recently, and in this short period of time it was able to cover not only the domestic market, but also the West and the East. It is worth noting that the brand’s products are not confiscated goods, not fakes and not typical “spills”. That is, all the collections that the Armel catalog of perfumes represent are not synthetics or chemistry!
The cost of a 50 ml bottle is 1,500 rubles, and selective ones cost 2,500 rubles. Perfume bottles are produced in Italy, which already guarantees high quality.
In addition to perfume, the company is engaged in the production of body and hair care products. But soon “Armel” plans to expand its horizons and surprise fans with new directions.
The composition of the perfume "Armel"
Perfumes of this line are based on high quality components. Compared to synthetics, it is able to open in 3 notes, and when applied it does not have a pungent odor; on the contrary, Armel perfumes are distinguished by a soft and rather delicate aroma.
Each packaging is labeled AEC. This means that the product meets all European standards and the requirements for quality and durability of perfume.
The composition of perfumes is based solely on natural essences produced in the Arzheville laboratory in Grasse, the perfumery capital of France. Due to the fact that natural components are used in the creation of perfumes, their aroma is revealed in three stages, which makes the product as high-quality as brand-name analogues.
Perfumes are bottled and packaged in bottles made at the Perfume Style factory from high-quality Italian glass.
It should also be noted that the product of this company has no direct relation to famous brands (equivalents of famous perfume compositions are created). This means that the manufacturing plant, which is ordered by the world's most popular trading houses (Chanel, Dolce Gabbana, etc.), has every right to sell this product under its own brand, but without a name (only under a number) .
Why do we overpay for our favorite fragrance
It is safe to say that everyone is worried about the low price for Armel products (perfumes), customer reviews are confirmation of this. So, let's take a closer look at this issue so that new consumers do not have doubts about the surprisingly low cost.
Figuratively imagine a perfume shop selling a bottle of fragrance from Chanel. We take the cost of the perfume composition for 100%, and as a result we get the numbers on the basis of which the cost of perfumes is formed:
- 20% you pay for packaging;
- 20% - for a logo embossed on a box and bottle;
- 40% - all costs of advertising a product;
- 10% - payment for transportation costs;
- 10% - the cost of aroma.
Do not forget about the 100% wrapping up of the retail supplier. Thus, the price for perfumes of elite brands is formed. But looking at the Armel perfume catalog and choosing the appropriate fragrance, you can bypass the above costs.

- No. 003 (Chanel Bleu De Chanel). This is the creation of "Armel" (perfume), customer reviews are most often discussed. In their opinion, the aroma can be compared with a wood piece, the attention of which is worth all 3 acts. The initial notes due to menthol, citrus, nutmeg and pink pepper create a feeling of freshness of a gusty wind. Heart notes play the role of the second act, which is responsible for awakening: ginger, jasmine and cedar. And the ending of the wood piece will be the basic notes: sandalwood, patchouli and incense.
- No. 004 (Carolina Herrera - 212 Men). Ambiguous aroma. If on the one hand it attracts attention with its citrus freshness, on the other hand, the freshness of the leaves echoes it, and the woody chord becomes the end.

A light train appears due to vetiver, sandalwood, musk and incense.
- No. 005 (Paco Rabanne - 1 million). This is a real freshness cocktail for men who love calm woody notes. Grapefruit and red orange create a spicy aroma.

The middle ones reveal the aroma of white cedar, neroli and cedar, and the base is sweet vanilla, vetiver, white musk and ambergris.
- No. 011 (Givenchy Play). Only one phrase can characterize this fragrance: "A storm of emotions and passions." The bitter grapefruit chords reveal a refreshing composition. The citrus theme is picked up by the heart notes of coffee and pepper. A persistent train provides a bewitching haze of patchouli and vetiver.
And here is a photo of Armel perfume. Men's reviews suggest that No. 016 is one of the brand’s best flavors. But it costs a little more, therefore it is not among the most bought.
Positive reviews
As it turned out, the opinion on the products among the buyers was mixed. If one half of the forums shares only positive emotions, the other half is very negative. In general, first things first ...
Despite the fact that the company is a network company, it has gained regular customers in a short time, advising others to purchase products of this brand. No chemistry is the most frequently mentioned virtue. Only 3 components are written on the package: alcohol, perfume and water, which means no synthetics.
No less than positive comments received the price. Although many admitted that at first special confidence in the "French" products for 1,500 rubles did not arise. But after receiving the perfume and the first week of use, doubts disappeared, and no one doubted their authenticity.
True perfumers noted that branded aromas have a harsher smell than the equivalent created by Armel.
Customers also noted that for regular customers the store makes good discounts. For example, recently the cost of some fragrances has been reduced by 40%.
Negative reviews
What did the Armel product (perfume) not please the second half of customers. Customer reviews (negative) agreed that the fragrance presented in the sampler differs significantly from perfumes sold in 50 ml bottles. In their opinion, in the samplers there is a real perfume, and what is sold in a large volume resembles soap in smell.
As it turned out, all the negative comments about “Armel” (perfume), negative reviews and complaints about the properties of aromas. Some buyers claim that there are several fragrances that, after 15 minutes after application, begin to smell and stink.
Many noted the discrepancy of spirits under No. 131 to the original. When applied, bitterness is felt almost instantly, and then perfumes begin to exude the aroma of cheap soap.
How to distinguish an original from a fake
How often do we undergo fraud and acquire a fake at the cost of the original. To once again not become a victim of scammers, remember a few tricks that will help you distinguish fake from the original.
- Packaging. Many people know the scent of their favorite perfumes and can immediately recognize a fake, but you are unlikely to smell a sealed item. Therefore, try to calculate the fake visually: the cellophane is tightly attached to the package and fixed not by gluing, but by the thermo-method.
- We pass to the box. In the manufacture of fakes, letters are often missed. Real French perfumes have the inscription parfum, not parfume. The country of origin should also be indicated, for example, not France, but Made in France. And it is also necessary to have an expiration date, volume and composition.
- Pay attention to the signs. The presence of the correct barcode, the clarity of the recycling sign and the number driven into the cardboard packaging.
- The serial number printed on the glass bottle should not be erased.
- The presence in the package of an additional design that does not allow the perfume bottle to move.
- Color. In the original perfume, it is gentle, in fakes it is usually bright or dull.
- The bottle cap should always be smooth and symmetrical. The only exception: asymmetry is conceived by the manufacturer.
All information about the packaging is usually available on the official website of the manufacturer, so you can verify the authenticity of your purchase at any time.
