We have no note list on record for it, so we describe nothing we cannot back up. A decant gives you time with it, which a quick spray on a paper strip never does. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAn honest gap\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo note list is on record for Bortnikoff Zemfira; wear it and judge. We would rather give you a clean sample than a description we cannot stand behind. One wearing shows a mood, several wearings show the perfume. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBefore it can be filled\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBortnikoff Zemfira is listed so that you can ask for it. Send the form on this page and your interest is noted; we do not name a date. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the decant\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe decant holds the same liquid as the full bottle of Bortnikoff Zemfira, moved into a small glass spray vial by FragranceGems and labelled by us. Because it is a spray, the perfume spreads on skin the same way it would from the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo season or occasion is on record for Zemfira, so let your own days decide. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening. Apply one or two sprays to clean skin, without other scented products nearby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is no audience on file for Zemfira, which leaves it open to anyone curious. People who tire of scents quickly do well with small sizes. The sample is for anyone who wants to know a perfume before owning it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Bortnikoff Zemfira as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a decant you find out in a week what a description cannot tell you in a page. It is our own decant from the original bottle, labelled by us. This is not an official brand sample and the house is not involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs this a sample made by Bortnikoff?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Zemfira from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy does this page list no notes?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo note list is on record with us for Bortnikoff Zemfira, and we only print notes we can trace to a source.
