I don't like it anymore
The first time I smelled this perfume it threw me back in the past. I bought it out of sentimental reasons and I enjoyed it from time to time.... At that time I was searching for vintage fragrances and I have purchased some of them, but.... I really got tired of them.
This perfume reminds me, a lot of Chanel 5. I don't like that one either. My mother had it. (It was a gift from my father but she didn't liked it. Her favourite perfume was gone from the market at that time and he tried to replace it with Chanel 5 but it was a total miss. Nobody in the house liked that fragrance and I have no idea how it ended. When her favourite perfume returned to the market she just sticked with it and she is still wearing it).
Anyways, this perfume lasts on me for about an hour. It's really strong in the opening but it starts to fade slowly until it's gone, and it's gone very fast. It surprises me that it lasts longer as an air freshener than on the skin or clothes. I'm just using it as an air freshener. I have started to dislike scents like this so much. Even tho I wasn't describing them as granny scents at the beginning, but for some reason, now I do. Everything that smells like or reminds me of Chanel 5 now, needs to be removed from my collection. I'm tired of vintage stuff.

I have a date with a friend ...
... at a nice restaurant. I'm a bit early and waiting in my suit at the bar, sipping a whiskey sour. Then she enters the room in her elegant women's suit. She walks over to me and we greet each other with a kiss on the left and a kiss on the right. In the process, I catch a whiff of her elegant classic perfume that suits her perfectly. We have a lovely evening.

Upon applying this fragrance, the first thing that hits the nose is a citrus note combined with coriander. Soon, floral accords join in, giving this scent a beautiful feminine touch, and the iris makes it quite powdery. The woody notes and vanilla add an exciting twist.

The longevity and sillage are good.

Here we have an elegant women's fragrance that I see suited for women starting around 30 years old. I simply can't imagine it on younger ones. It can be worn year-round, perhaps not on very hot days. It is suitable for both the office and leisure time or shopping. It also works well for an evening out, at a restaurant, in a club, or even just at the theater. The scent is so feminine that I can't picture it on a guy, except for Dark Queens, of course.

If you enjoy a floral, slightly citrusy, spicy, and powdery fragrance, this might be just right for you. The price is also affordable.

Nonchalant Marriage Counseling and Tribute to Loriot


This (almost) forgotten classic is experiencing an unexpected revival in the practice of Dipl. Psychologist Gesine Primel, an expert in marriage counseling.
Ilse and Heinz Pöllmann, a married couple, enter the consulting room. He in a gray double-breasted suit with a bow tie and she in a white ruffled blouse with a hat. They take a seat.
Primel: “Good day, my name is Primel, I counsel couples with marital issues and problems in intimacy. I do not perform miracles!!”
Mr. Pöllmann: “Oh really?!”
Primel: “Mrs. Pöllmann, what is your favorite color?”
Mrs. Pöllmann: “White! Schamöwhite! That is whiter than white.”
Primel: “Your favorite color please, Mr. Pöllmann?”
Mr. Pöllmann: “Gray. Smoke gray, stone gray, silver gray, blue-green gray with red speckles.”
Primel: “That will suffice, Mr. Pöllmann.”
Mr. Pöllmann: “If I just say gray now, you will look it up in a table and it will say: Mr. Pöllmann beats his wife.”
Up to this point, I have been inspired by the wonderful sketch by Loriot and Evelin Hamann:

The further course of the story is entirely fictional and in no way diminishes the dignity of the wearers of the fragrance. On the contrary!!!! The kissing doll, which is also not available for purchase, does not appear here.

Primel: “Mr. Pöllmann, when was the last time you were intimate with your wife?”
Mr. Pöllmann: “I don’t remember, I have things to do. I do scroll saw work.”
Primel: “Mrs. Pöllmann, how about you take the initiative? Nowadays, women don’t have to remain passive anymore.”
Mrs. Pöllmann: “MEEE? I also have my household and Hercules (shows a photo of her Miniature Pinscher).”
Mr. Pöllmann: “That yappy dog! You should have gotten a Bordeaux Mastiff instead.”
To distract the furious Ilse Pöllmann, Mrs. Primel places a bottle of Nonchalance on the table.
Primel: “Mrs. Pöllmann, why not surprise your husband with a nice perfume? (Sprays Ilse). Here is a classic. It was launched in 1960 by the company that also created 4711. Elegant and fresh at the start. With a lovely rose and herbal note.”
Mrs. Pöllmann: “I don’t know. I’ve always had 4711, but I don’t know this one. Is it supposed to help?”
Primel: “Yes, 4711 is world-famous, but Nonchalance lives in its shadow, and it doesn’t deserve that. Smell it, it’s also finely powdery and not intrusive. Softly floral. With violet and jasmine. If you also wear the matching lipstick....”
Mrs. Pöllmann: “Yes, I love violets, I have an oil for my fragrance lamp, and a jasmine bush grows in front of the house, it smells wonderfully beautiful.”
Primel: “And not at all sweet, not even from the vanilla, a bit woody in the base. Wonderful for an experienced woman like you.”
Mr. Pöllmann: “Well, it smells appealing and not too bubbly. Is there musk in it? Because I don’t like musk. Better than your eternal Palmolive... or the rubbing.”
Primel (to Pöllmann): “Why not buy your wife a sexy negligee to go with this fragrance? Perhaps in schamöwhite.”

In the shadow of the great Madame, Nonchalance gently seeks fame and elegance. It reveals itself as an independent, sweet fragrance.
