Manel | Dubai Perfume – Dolores Pour Femma (Fragrance World)

The fragrance Fragrance World “Dolores Pour Femme” is listed as being inspired by Decadence by Marc Jacobs.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of Dolores Pour Femme by Fragrance World—what it smells like, how it’s positioned, and what to expect (based on available info).

📝 Overview

Dolores Pour Femme is a women’s fragrance from Fragrance World described as a “luxurious, sensual rich woody fragrance” that embodies the spirit of irreverent glamour.

It is often marketed as inspired by Marc Jacobs’s “Decadence.”

Primarily available as an Eau de Parfum (EDP), commonly in 100 ml size (also 50 ml in some markets).

🎨 Fragrance Notes & Profile

Here’s how it breaks down:

Top Notes:

Italian plum (or simply “plum”), iris flower, saffron.

Heart (Middle) Notes:

Bulgarian rose, jasmine sambac, orris (root of iris)

Base Notes:

Vetiver, papyrus wood, liquid amber (sometimes “liquidambar”/amber resin)

Olfactory Family & Feel:

The fragrance is classified as Oriental-Floral or Amber-Floral.

Expect a rich and somewhat bold scent: the plum and saffron give a luxurious opening, the rose + jasmine provide a floral heart, and the woody + amber base gives depth and longevity.

💡 Wear & Occasion Suggestions

This fragrance is well-suited for evening wear or special occasions because of its richness. It’s more on the glamorous side rather than light daytime casual. (Many retailers suggest cooler weather or night-time)

Because of its concentration and profile, it likely projects nicely and has good sillage (trail) and longevity—especially compared with lighter EDTs.

If you live in a warmer climate (like Namibia / Windhoek) you may want to apply more modestly (1-2 sprays) so it doesn’t become overwhelming indoors.

If you prefer something lighter or more subtle, this might feel strong; if you enjoy bold, statement scents, this will fit nicely.

✅ Strengths & ⚠️ Points to Consider

Strengths:

Strong niche-vibe for less cost: Because it is “inspired by” a designer fragrance, you get many of the vibe of a high-end perfume for less.

Rich composition: The plum + saffron + iris combination is less common in mainstream “sweet floral” offerings.

Good for statement use: Night out, events, cooler seasons.

Points to Consider:

Because it’s richer and somewhat heavier, it may be too much for hot daytime use or offices if you prefer subtle scents.
