First Impressions

If you enjoy sweet fragrances with a hint of vanilla and jasmine, FM Perfume 359 might be your new favourite. It was one of the first perfumes I purchased from FM World, and it’s still one of my go-to scents today. Upon the first spray, the fragrance is sweet and feminine, with noticeable jasmine notes that settle beautifully on the skin. With its citrus-based fragrance profile, FM 359 suits all seasons, especially spring and summer.

FM World fragrances prioritize simplicity, ensuring you get quality scents at a lower price. FM 359 is perfect for a summer night out with friends or a casual daytime outing.

What Does FM 359 Smell Like?

FM Perfume 359 boasts a refreshing and well-balanced scent that will delight your senses. The notes include:

  • Top Notes: Sparkling citrus and fresh florals create a bright and refreshing opening.
  • Heart Notes: A delicate bouquet of blossoms accented with subtle spice, adding warmth and complexity.
  • Base Notes: A smooth blend of deep, woody undertones, amber, and musk, leaving a sensual finish.

The fragrance bears a striking resemblance to Thierry Mugler’s Alien Essence Absolue, which is known for its rich composition. FM 359 offers a similar experience without the premium price tag, proving that you don’t have to pay a fortune for an exquisite scent.

Longevity and Sillage

FM Perfume 359 excels in longevity. A few spritzes can last between 6 and 8 hours, making them ideal for long workdays or evenings. Its moderate sillage ensures the fragrance is noticeable without being overpowering.

FM Perfume 359 is often compared to high-end designer fragrances due to its rich composition and well-balanced layers. Many who try it are pleasantly surprised, especially if they leave celebrity-endorsed fragrances.

The Perfect Occasion for FM 359

FM 359’s elegant blend makes it perfect for special events such as weddings, formal dinners, or date nights. The fresh citrus and floral top notes are perfect for spring and summer, but the fragrance is versatile enough for year-round wear.

FM’s Pure Royal range, to which FM 359 belongs, contains 20% pure perfume oil, providing a longer-lasting scent (about six hours). The high concentration of quality fragrance oil gives the perfume depth and richness without compromising affordability.

Personal Impressions

When I first sprayed FM 359, I was immediately captivated by the jasmine note. While I typically avoid vanilla-based scents due to their sweetness, the vanilla in FM 359 is subtle and doesn’t overpower the composition. The combination of floral and woody notes is balanced and harmonious, making it a fragrance that works well on both men and women.

Some friends complimented me on the scent when I wore it, and a few even ordered their bottles after trying a sample. This perfume strikes the perfect balance: it’s noticeable but not overwhelming.

Packaging and Presentation

FM Perfume 359 comes in a sleek, minimalistic bottle that reflects FM World’s focus on quality over extravagance. The understated design focuses on the fragrance, which is aligned with the brand’s ethos of affordable luxury. The scent lasts beautifully on the skin, and after 30 minutes, I could distinctly smell ambergris and cashmere wood, complementing the delicate floral notes.

      Hello and thank you for reading my article. The perfume is definitely one of my favourites for it’s gorgeous fragrance notes. With our fragrances it helps the reader to get a little insight into what it smells like when designer scents have similar notes. It makes choosing a perfume easier when the buyer already has a favourite scent that they like.

      I’m pleased that my review was a pleasant read and hopefully it will help others if they decide to try FM359.

    Hey thank you for this review!

    I absolutely love perfumes and reading this post was great, knowing other people opinions on it is certainly interesting!
    By how you have described the perfume it has got me wanting to purchase a sample. 

    I personally purchase perfumes which are often endorsed by celebrities, not any celebs but my favourite ones. I like the undertones these perfumes you have discussed here have.

    Thankyou for creating this interesting post and have a great day!

      Hi, thank you for reading my article. There are so many gorgeous scents available today that we really are spoilt for choice.

      Absolutely, feel free to try a sample. Many of us have been used to purchasing celebrity endorsed scents so it’s great that there are other options out there and perfumes that have very similar fragrance notes.

      I love the fact that there is very little difference, if any, with the FM range.
