Berries and Caramel, worn before you decide
Mykonos makes Verve, a Parfum you can get to know here in a small vial. On paper it is built around Berries, Caramel, Jasmine, Powdery notes, Tonka bean and Vanilla. Trying it as a sample first means your decision rests on wearing it, not on a description. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.

The composition
These notes are recorded without a pyramid.
On the skin
FragranceGems lists Berries, Caramel, Jasmine, Powdery notes, Tonka bean and Vanilla for Verve. That is a flat list of notes, not a pyramid, and we leave the order to your own wearings. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.
Verve carries the family labels floral and gourmand. Labels like these help you sort a long list, and wearing it does the actual judging. The recorded strength is strong. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another.
What you get is Verve in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. The vial closes tightly and fits in a pocket or bag, so you can test it wherever your day goes. Because it is a spray, the perfume spreads on skin the same way it would from the bottle.
Testing it
FragranceGems places Mykonos Verve in autumn and winter, which tells you when a first test makes most sense. FragranceGems files it under everyday wear, evenings and special occasions. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather.
On record, Verve is listed for everyone (unisex). It also works for anyone who wants a small vial for travel or a bag. Anyone who reacts strongly to certain notes is wise to test on skin first. It suits people who like to put a few scents side by side over a week.
You learn more from three wearings of Mykonos Verve than from thirty opinions about it. This is a FragranceGems house, so the decant comes from close to the source: filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle, labelled by us. And if Verve wins you over, FragranceGems carries the full 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.

Read how we fill your sampleQuestions
FragranceGems does. Mykonos is a FragranceGems house, and the sample of Verve is filled by us from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labelled by us.
FragranceGems lists it for autumn and winter. That is a guide, not a rule: with a decant you can try it in other weather and see whether it still works for you.
That depends on how long you want to test. The smallest vial is enough for a first impression of Verve; the larger ones give you many wearings, in different weather and on different days.
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 spans 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.
