From the brand - "Today, her story is reborn in LoukouME—a fragrance as soft as a lover’s whisper and as lasting as a vow. It melts into the skin like a beautiful memory. Notes of milk, vanilla, and dulce de leche wrap you in warmth—gentle, sweet, eternal. And beneath it all, musk lingers—deep, mysterious, like a promise made in touch, not words. Some loves fade. Theirs became perfume."
Fragrantica - "This arrived today and holy shit if this isn't instantly one of my favourites. It's very sweet and very floral. It reminds me of a creamier kilian ldbs (which I liked but it was way too cloying). This one is a lot more manageable, less sweet and has more florals without being as screechy. Do not sleep on her."
Fragrantica - "This perfume is soooo good! Yes it does remind me of LDBS by Kilian, but it’s lighter, more airy and fluffly. It’s not as deep and strong as LDBS but I actually prefer this one. Absolutely love the mix of orange blossom and rose water as a North African girlie! Reminds me of our desserts ? longevity is not impressive, 3h after spraying it’s a skin scent."
Fragrantica - "Wow, just Wow! So I am lucky enough to live in Cyprus, in Paphos, where this amazing little boutique is based, and also I am born and raised cypriot, where this perfume is inspired by. At first, it really resembles love don’t be shy by kilian. After a while, the milk note becomes more prominent, and it really reminds me of another traditional desert of Cyprus that’s called mahalepi. The scent instantly transports me to summers in Cyprus, that delicate, chilled dessert made simply with water, cornstarch, and rose or blossom water. Silky, jelly-like, and bathed in that sweet, floral syrup… It smells like home, like cool breezes and warm memories in a bowl. If you are ever in Paphos, its worth visiting the boutique. They did a great job with this one!"
Fragrantica - "Received this as a holiday gift and instantly fell in love. It is entirely unique - a flormand that whispers, leaves a delicate but very noticeable scent trail, and much like actual lokum, is gently sweet, floral and powdery."
