I’m considering buying the Narwal Freo X Plus, mainly because the product seem better compared to many alternatives in this price range.

But before finalising, I want realistic feedback from Indian users regarding:

Service experience in India

Carpet climbing ability

App quality and reliability. This is important

Software bugs/issues

Mapping/navigation consistency

Long-term durability

Consumables availability (brushes, filters, mop pads, etc.)

Customer support responsiveness

Thanks

I’m thinking about making a perfume as a gift, but I’m starting from basically zero knowledge. I’ve watched a few videos and skimmed some random posts, but I don’t really have a structured understanding of perfumery yet.

My main constraint is time — I have about a week. I’m open to putting in more time and learning properly if needed, but if there’s a simplified approach that works on a short timeline, I’d love to try that. From what I’ve read, I’m unsure how realistic that is. I keep seeing mentions of things like maturation/aging time, blending ratios, and potential skin sensitivities or allergies, which makes me wonder if rushing this is a bad idea.

A few specific concerns:

Is it actually possible to make a decent (not necessarily professional-level) perfume in just a few days?

How critical is the maturation period? Will skipping or shortening it ruin the result?

Are there any basic precautions I should take regarding skin safety or allergens if I’m gifting it to someone?

If a week is too short, what’s the minimum realistic timeline to make something that doesn’t feel half-baked?

I’m open to putting in more time and learning properly if needed, but if there’s a simplified approach that works on a short timeline, I’d love to try that.

Any practical advice, especially from people who’ve tried beginner DIY perfumery, would be really helpful
