Padded half cup bra with a three-part cup More...
I love how this bra fits. It comfortably holds my breasts in place and I am not spilling out. The band is snug and doesn't shift around. The bra gives me a nice, round look. The material is a bit rough though and it can be a little itchy on my skin.

I really like how this bra fits and how it gives me the "cakes on a plate" look. The band was a little snug at first, but it stretched nicely after a few wears. The cups hold my boobs in place and provide great support. It almost feels like the cups hold my boobs up. There is no squishing or pinching or pushing anywhere. It has narrow wires, which work well for me. I have asymmetry, but if I tighten the strap on my smaller side, it isn't terribly noticable. The bra fits in my IMF. Also, the gore tacks pretty well without digging into my sternum, which ... is a problem I have with a lot of bras. The gore pushes out ever so slightly on my bigger side. Based on fit and how it looks under clothing, this is my favorite bra so far.
The material is stiff and scratchy. It makes my skin itchy sometimes, which I don't like. I can look past this because the bra fits well and makes my boobs look nice under clothing.
I like this bra enough that I ended up buying the black 3HC as well.

This bra has great underwire shape for me, just like the Adele, but also has a lot of gaping at the top of the cup. I think that's caused my a shape mismatch, but I'll probably try a smaller cup because this is the best any underwire has fit me.

Edit: I bought this from Breakout Bras so the label says 28G, but from Comexim the size would be 60HH.
I am usually a 28E/F and I have ultra high implants and need lots of projection. This bra really pushes my boobs up and together giving me a lot of cleavage, but because it's so tight I can't wear it comfortably for more than a few hours. I might try a cup size up.
I like that the gore overlaps because I'm close set. But it doesn't tack because it's too small for me. There isn't immediate protection at the wire underneath which probably adds to the pushup effect. I do like the rounded shape it gives which is hard to find in most supportive bras for me. I'm hoping sizing up will help.

The construction of the bra is different than other European brands (re: Panache, Cleo, Freya). It's a seamed molded cup, which means that it won't be godforsaken itchy on my sensitive skin. While the band fit excellent, the cups much shallower than I was expecting, so much that it smashed my soft tissue against my chest and made it uncomfortable to breathe. The cups are slightly too wide on my chest, even with my tissue compacted. The cups themselves do not appear to have much projection at the wire, and overall has a rounded appearance, with a steep curve from the wire to the apex before rounding out.

So much spilling, and the shape isn't projected enough. Band is a very stretchy gal

Love it. It fits and gives projection and I feel support from the band and not the shoulders.

Beautiful bra with slight padding. Overall soft and stretchy material. The cups are a bit tall for me and the straps are a bit far spaced which results in a bit a wrinkling where they attach to the bra. However, overall a good fit. I may order with customizations directly from Comexim in the future.

This should work according to the depth measurement, but it's just not quite there. It pushes up/presses my breast tissue and creates some slight quadding on top.
Edit: it's actually not that bad when my size isn't fluctuating during my cycle, but still a push-up cleavage fit, which isn't always what I want. I think the plunges suit me more and possibly accommodate the size changes better, but getting all the customizations to work out is a trial.
This might fit better with extra depth at the wire (I've heard that the 3HC is good for immediate depth, but in this size range, I don't think that's true). ... I've seen other reviews with this alteration; emailed Comexim to confirm they do it but haven't heard back yet.
I've been trying to make the 3HC work for me so I could get something unaltered. But it seems like I can't avoid customizations.
Update: So I actually ended up asking about the plunges, not the 3HCS, but they confirmed that they can add 1cm of depth at the wire to the plunges.
Update 2: I decided to keep this since it's not the worst. Trying a 55J Ardea next, since sometimes I think the Basics run just a little small and a 55K might be a little too big without customizations (remembering that 60HH/28G I tried which was too tall/large overall). My order of reduced cup plunges with extra depth at the wire was pretty hit or miss. I don't recommend this alteration since it's hard to know if it was done.
