Fragrantica Hit by Ddos Attack Blocks Pink Diamond Sakura Page

In the vast universe of fragrances, a women's perfume named "Pink Diamond Sakura Ibraheem AlQurashi" has recently drawn attention—not for its scent, but due to an unexpected cybersecurity incident. Fragrantica, a globally recognized platform for perfume reviews and information, announced on November 20, 2025, that it would temporarily restrict anonymous access to pages associated with this fragrance.

The decision followed the detection of abnormal traffic patterns on the website's page for another perfume, "French Avenue Spectre Ghost." Administrators suspect the platform may have been targeted by a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, where servers are overwhelmed by a flood of requests from compromised devices, often part of a botnet.

DDoS attacks remain a persistent threat in the digital landscape, disrupting services by exhausting server resources. Fragrantica's temporary measure aims to safeguard its infrastructure while ensuring uninterrupted access for registered users across other sections of the site.

Anonymous visitors are expected to regain full access after 17:22 GMT on November 20, 2025. In the interim, perfume enthusiasts may consider creating accounts to explore the platform's comprehensive database of fragrances and reviews.
