Light Licorice
I am a registered Liquorice Addict. And since I am currently trying to go through withdrawal again, I am avoiding my beloved Blueband liquorices, the Dutch salty liquorice, the knotweed, and liquorice ice cream, and I am still looking for the right substitute drug. So far, only Kenzo Jungle Elephant has somewhat satisfied me in terms of the amount of liquorice, while Lolle Lempicka hasn’t lasted long, and 06130 probably won’t either.
What could be the reason for this?
FdR is a light, spicy sweet liquorice water. At first, I smell almost only anise, but not like with Pernod and the like, as an assault on the mucous membranes, but delicate and floral. A spicy note later combines with it and makes the scent more liquorice-y ..(yes, yes, now - now it's slowly coming..), but it only simmers on low heat and remains too subtle.
The base is also too little present to give the fragrance the desired impact.
My verdict: Liquorice light. Nice, wearable, no intrusive "In-your-face" liquorice note, but a deliciously spicy gourmand with the charm of anise-fennel baby tea.
