common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONProsThis Ohana Mahaalo fragrance is refreshingly clean, unlike their typically sweet scents! It's reminiscent of shampoo but with a chic twist. It doesn't cause headaches, doesn't become tiresome, and you can use it for a long time. The color is beautiful, and the bottle is lovely too. The spray distributes evenly. The lingering scent lasts so long I thought it was an EDT, but it's actually an eau de cologne!
ConsIf I had to nitpick, it's a Japanese brand and contains colorants...?
TipsThe shelf life is a bit shorter compared to other fragrances

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONProsBefore it was available in Korea, I couldn't forget the scent I experienced in Japan. When it finally arrived here, I begged my friend for it as a gift. As someone who doesn't like overpowering fragrances and prefers a clean soap scent, this perfume was perfect for me. With summer approaching, I think I'll need to buy another bottle. While soap-like fragrances tend to fade quickly, this one has impressive staying power.
ConsThe only downside to soap-like fragrances is that they tend to dissipate faster compared to other scents.

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONProsAs someone who used to despise perfume scents, this was the first fragrance that made me think 'Wow, this smells amazing!' I've always gotten headaches from the artificial, strong scents of perfumes. But this one truly smells like fresh shampoo!!!! It's like you've just stepped out of the shower, with a cool and refreshing vibe. It completely changed my perception of fragrances (at least in terms of scent alone). Even my friend who dislikes perfumes said this one smells genuinely good! Plus, it's more affordable compared to high-end fragrances, making it perfect for those who don't usually wear perfume but want to feel a bit special. I've tried other Ohana Mahalos, but personally, nothing beats this natural shampoo scent. It's a universally appealing fragrance - highly recommended!
ConsThe longevity is disappointingly short. This is the biggest drawback. If it lasted longer, I wouldn't even look at other fragrances and would keep repurchasing this one. Also, as time passes, the initial scent fades away and only the base notes remain (excuse my lack of perfume terminology). It seems only the underlying scent lingers.
TipsEven though it's a natural shampoo scent, spraying too much can make it overpowering and unpleasant! Applying just the right amount gives a subtle fragrance that's more enjoyable. Given its short longevity, it might be a good idea to decant some into a small bottle to carry around and reapply as needed.

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONProsI usually go for sweet scents, but I decided to try this perfume for a change of pace. I was absolutely delighted with everything from its lasting power to its fragrance! It's like the fresh, clean scent of shampoo right after a shower. It's perfect for students - subtle enough that you can't quite tell if you're wearing perfume or not, but still noticeable.
ConsI really loved this perfume, so there wasn't much I disliked about it. However, the price point might be a bit steep for students...
