The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
Bergamot and lemon open the perfume and violet leaf adds a green, slightly dry edge. It is a short, clean top with no sweet notes in the list, so expect brightness more than juice, and a start that feels clean rather than sweet from the first moment.
The heart is a trio of rose, violet and iris. Violet and iris lean powdery, rose adds warmth, and together they make the centre soft and floral. If you dislike powder in perfume, this is the stage that decides it, so smell the skin again before you judge.
The base is amberwood, ambrette and sandalwood: a dry, woody frame with the soft, skin-like quality of ambrette. No resins or sweet notes are recorded here, so the finish should stay light and close, which you can check on skin.
Testing it
FragranceGems files it for spring and summer and for daily, evening and work wear, so a bright day at your desk is a good first test. Apply once to the forearm, then notice when the violet and iris come forward. Try it again in the evening to see how the florals feel in lower light.
For people who like clean, powdery florals with a citrus start and a woody finish and want something that suits an office. If you find rose heavy but enjoy violet and iris, the balance here may suit you, and the sample is how you check.
Powdery florals divide people more than most families do. Mykonos is our own house, and the decant is drawn from the original 50 ml bottle at FragranceGems and labelled by us, so what is in the vial is what is in the bottle.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.

FragranceGems lists it as unisex. Rose, violet and iris sit in the heart, but the citrus and wood around them keep it open, so judge it on your own skin rather than on the family name.
Violet and iris are the powdery notes recorded, and the list has no sweet or resinous notes to deepen them. FragranceGems rates the intensity as moderate, so it should stay soft.
It is listed for daily wear and for work, and its recorded notes are bright and clean. Wear the sample through a working day and see whether the violet stays pleasant at a desk.
The brand
Mykonos is an Indonesian perfume house with a Mediterranean name. Its motto is "Born in Indonesia. Built for the world", the perfumes are produced in Indonesia and most of them are Extrait de Parfum, with a few Eau de Parfum. The range in Europe counts 49 perfumes across six scent families. A sample is the easiest way to find out which of those families suits your skin before you choose a 50 ml or 100 ml bottle.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
