Who knows...
I ordered a mini bottle and the spray mechanism was faulty, so I have no idea what it smells like. I was given a refund.

strange but nice
the smell is unusual, once warmed up on the skin it becomes stronger and wafts around settling to a powdery, spicy lingering perfume. It is a perfume I would happily buy again to wear everywere
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Magical & Dreamy
I bought this in 5ml to just try it first & it turns out it's one of the best I've discovered in years. It's magical! I absolutely love it! I don't generally do signature fragrances, usually preferring an eclectic range for choice. I'm using Balmaya for evening only because it's so dreamy I don't want it to become too familial & commonplace, although it might just accidentally become my new evening signature smell as I find myself choosing it instinctively over my others more often than not. I love that it's a bit different to the mainstream perfumes & I quite like that 'peppery' scent it has about it. Also, you can't go wrong with the price & there are no cons that I can see. I'm totally in love!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Not for me.
The notes sound good on paper, but the scent itself is a mess. I like Balmain's fragrances, but this one is... It smells cheap, overpowering, stale, and makes me uncomfortable. Not for me.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Subtle, but intense and enduring
I don't like most 'mainstream' perfumes because when they dry down there's a disappointing 'sameness' amongst most of them--to 'my' nose. I understand the basic principles in the formulation of 'personal fragrance'--e.g., Top, Middle, and Base notes--the latter being the most lingering--what you're left with after the stuff has been mingling w/your chemistry after a period of time. A lot of fragrances are formulated using either synthetic or 'nature identical' components and 'Musk' is one of the most popular. I can believe that it's possible to have an artificial scent component that truly DOES smell like what it's imitating, but to me, most synthetics smell like what they are: fake. So many fragrances use some form of musk that that's the dominant aroma--and to my nose it emerges pretty quickly, which accounts for the degree of similarity among a large number of 'popular' scents, and my distaste for them. So you've got a lot of 'choices' that all end up smelling like some configuration of Musk along w/misc other 'cheap' aromas. [Again, please keep in mind that I'm talking about the olfactory life of 'my' nose!]. Fast forward re *Balmya*: to my nose it doesn't dry down to smell like everything else--it has and retains its own identity/individuality. There's a 'timeless/classic' aspect to this scent which is part of what makes a fragrance even worth considering; it's also subtle, but potent and distinctive--such as could be said about Violets; rather than have a musky aftermath, Balmya is more spicy/woody, but distinctly Feminine. I would definitely purchase a larger size of this product, but give it a '4' rather than a '5' because it's lacking an indefinable property that would make it absolute perfection to me; I'd actually give it a '4.75' if I could :)
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Coffee fragrance
This is a well constructed coffee fragrance. The base notes cuddle you in a cashmere shawl which smells like iris, sandalwood and milky coffee.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

the signature perfume
it was pretty much love at first sight. i was looking for a new scent and i tried many different perfumes and none of them made me smile like Balmaya. the scent is very long lasting and the notes are all equally strong. the first note is very oriental and floral, then it somehow gets sweet and spicy, the last note is a very satisfying earthy, cottony scent that you'd find a grin on your face. but then my housemate finds it a bit too strong for her (she's more of the classic, natural style).
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

A soft floral with coffee notes
This is a pretty, soft floral with a pronounced coffee note (more like cappuccino than coffee beans) which makes it unique. It is a feminine all-round fragrance, highly unlikely to offend anyone. A great creation from the Balmain house.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
